We're attending the Lambda World Conf - October 2-4th

Well, not me. I won’t be attending, some of my colleagues will, though. And they’d love to connect with you if you’re going too.

We’re thrilled to announce that Penpot is a proud sponsor of Lambda World this year! Lambda World is one of the largest conference in Europe about Functional programming.

Since Penpot is built using Clojure, a functional language, we’re proud about supporting the functional programming community and fostering events like these.

Our team is super excited and can’t wait to be part of the action! We’ll have a booth at the venue. We’ll be running fun challenges and quizzes throughout the event, with awesome goodies and top prizes to give away!

If you’re interested in joining the Penpot dev team, we’re hiring! So swing by, say hello, and learn more. See you there!

We had such a blast at Lambda! The team loved the event, the talks and the connections they made.

WE HAVE A WINNER! We’d like to thank all of you who approach our booth and especially those who participated in our Code Challenge. A huge congratulations to the winner of our challenge, Łukasz Sowa! Hope you enjoy the Lego Millenium Falcon prize.

We asked to caption this function below. Łukasz answered:

“Finds the first boletus croqueta, settles for jamón if none found.”

You win us over with the food theme! Such a good answer. Congrats!

  [pred coll default]
  (reduce

     (if (pred x)
       (reduced x)
       default))
