Session
The first time you start Julia, you are presented with its humble, yet powerful, REPL. If you explore a bit, you'll quickly discover that Julia's REPL is more than just a place to try a line of code. You can also use it to install packages, look up documentation, and execute shell commands. But much like Clark Kent's glasses, Julia's REPL is hiding a secret superpower! In this talk, we will explore how REPL-driven development with Julia can transform how you write and develop code.
