SAFE apps with F# web stack

Modern web stacks often involve more than one programming language. SAFE on the other side offers an end-to-end solution, with static typing safety and other powerful language capabilities on both server and client side in plain F#. In the presentation, we'll discover possibilities of the stack during a live demo. After starting a SAFE project from scratch, we'll develop new features by sharing common F# code between client and server and observe changes using hot module replacement.

The corresponding letters in the acronym stand for: Suave - lightweight and composable web server, Azure - cloud provider from Microsoft, Fable - F# to JavaScript transpiler and Elmish - set of F# libraries imitating Elm architecture.
