Parenting - Saša Jurić | Code BEAM Europe 2024

This talk was recorded at Code BEAM Europe 2024. If you’re curious about our upcoming event, check https://codebebeameurope.com

This is a tutorial on managing process hierarchies with OTP, with a special focus on “smart parents”, i.e. worker processes which start their own children. The talk will present not-so-obvious pitfalls of naive start-linking, and explain proper steps to handle the children. You’ll also learn about the library, which, by including a missing layer between GenServer and Supervisor, makes the parenting job much easier. Finally, the talk will present a fully reimplemented and reimagined supervisor behaviour
