Explore a keynote presentation that examines how companies can successfully adopt functional programming languages by training existing developers rather than seeking experienced functional programmers. Learn from research conducted with four companies that successfully implemented Elm by hiring developers without prior Elm experience and achieving full onboarding within four weeks - comparable to JavaScript/TypeScript project onboarding times. Discover how this approach allows organizations to access the benefits of functional programming while drawing from the largest possible talent pool, and understand how this methodology can benefit the broader functional programming ecosystem. Gain insights from the creator of the Elm programming language on practical strategies for growing functional programming talent within your organization and overcoming common hiring challenges in the functional programming space.
