Tomorrow I have a Fantom talk on a conference on (yet) unpopular programming languages in Siberia and I'd like to share slides for it. Please fell free to comment, modify and redistribute in any form

I have uploaded PDF and original Keynote version to Dropbox.

Also I shared it via Google docs

The presentation is designed for a quick 20-30 minutes tour on Fantom, it does not cover all features, but tries to give a general overview of the language and tools.

Hi Ivan,

Minor things (I'm looking at the Google docs output, which may be munged):

• The line "No shared mutable state" should probably be expanded to say something like "No shared mutable state between threads/Actors"... otherwise I might assume there is no shared state between anything.
• "Static fields must be const"?
• Missing a close-brace on your "Declarative style" page (after "PhoneType.cell")
• "Dynamic style" page also is missing closing parens, etc. on "dict := ..." line
• "WebServer" page -- the bottom 1/3 is confusing, not clear if it's code or output

Overall, very good!

Thanks yachris, Regarding formatting there was a problem with code snippets after importing to google docs, I have corrected everything manually, but missed few places

What's wrong with "Static fields must be const"?

It might just help to elaborate why this is useful:

• all singletons are guaranteed thread-safe
• discourages inappropriate use of singletons

Sorry, my bad, I typed that as a note to myself and never got back to it.

So big thanks to tactics for clarification!

Nice presentation.

My only suggestion: in the slides where you show your console window, just use "$" as a prompt to cut down the noise:

Replace:

komaz-mac:margincon ivaninozemtsev$ echo "#! /usr/bin/env fan

with

$ echo "#! /usr/bin/env fan

Thanks Cedric!

I've updated google docs version
