Speaker

Jean-Baptiste Giraudeau

Jean-Baptiste is a programmer in pursuit of productivity and serenity. This quest has led him to domain-driven design and strongly-typed functional programming. He advocates for discussion before action and "using the right tool for the job," even if sometimes this shakes "but we've always done it this way!". Web services in Haskell? Why not! ;) To facilitate functional programming in Java, he created the Derive4J open source project [https://github.com/derive4j/derive4j](https://github.com/derive4j/derive4j)
