webinar: mastering the curl command line

Yes!

It is yet again time for a dual Zoom-twitch curl webinar. This one-hour (or so) session will be live-streamed on Twitch and broadcast on Zoom concurrently.

Of course entirely free to attend.

Date: September 5, 2024
Time: 17:00 UTC (19:00 CEST, 10:00 PDT)

The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session for all your curl questions.

You can select which one to view/attend. On the Zoom call, you will be able to ask questions via voice and on both you can ask questions via text/chat.

The Zoom version must be signed-up for to attend. The Twitch version you can just show up to.

The slides

getting started with libcurl

I am doing another webinar on March 28 2024, introducing newcomers to how to Internet transfers using the libcurl API.

Starting at 10am Pacific time. 17:00 UTC. 18:00 CET.

Agenda

  • libcurl basics
  • synchronous transfers
  • getting transfer information
  • concurrent transfers
  • URL parser
  • Q&A

The plan is to spend about 30 minutes going through the topics in the agenda and then take as long as necessary to let the attendees ask all and every question you may have about curl, the libcurl API and Internet transfers.

Sign up here

I have run this webinar before. The setup will be similar but not identical to previous runs. I believe attending the webinar is way better than watching a video recording of it in particular because you get the opportunity to interact and ask questions. Whatever detail you think is unclear or you would like to know more about, I can tell you all about it.

Using the libcurl API is not complicated, but it is a powerful machine and not everything is immediately obvious or straight forward.

See you on March 28.

(The event will be recorded and made available after the fact, and so will the slides.)

WebSocket with libcurl webinar

June 15, 2023 10:00 AM PST (19:00 CEST, 17:00 UTC)

Register Here

This will be was an overview by Daniel Stenberg of the new WebSocket support in curl and in particular how to use this API with libcurl in your applications. It is followed by a live Q&A.

The session will be recorded and made available after the fact.

This webinar is done as a registration-only event on Zoom. If this is problematic for you, there will be a separate second version of this webinar done over Twitch at a later date.

Uncurled – the presentation

Uncurled – everything I know and learned about running and maintaining Open Source projects for three decades.

This is me, doing a live English-speaking presentation/webinar on these topics that I cover in my book: Uncurled.

Recording

Date: Tuesday August 23, 2022

Time: 10: 00 UTC (12:00 CEST)

Where: over zoom [Sign up]

The plan is to record this session and make it available after the fact on YouTube. This post will be updated with a link to that once it exists.

Agenda

Here’s the outlook on what I hope to be able to cover in a 40 minutes talk.

This will be followed by a Q&A-session with me answering any questions you might have. Feel most welcome and encouraged to submit your questions ahead of time if you already have some! (comment here, email me, comment or DM on Twitter, send a carrier pigeon, anything!)

I have not done this presentation before. I know the subject very intimately so I have no worries about that. The timing of the thing is what is going to be my bigger challenge I think. I aim for no more than 40 minutes of me blabbing.

webinar: getting started with libcurl

On Thursday March 17 2022 at 09:00 PDT (16:00 UTC, 17:00 CET) I will run this free live webinar.

It is an introduction to doing Internet transfers using libcurl, may 30-35 minutes presentation followed by a Q&A session where I can answer all and any questions you may have.

Sign up here

The presentation will include:

  • Something about different versions of libcurl
  • How to find libcurl documentation
  • API and ABI promises
  • The different API sets within libcurl
  • API principles
  • “Easy handles” are for transfers
  • The easy interface basics
  • Creating an “easy handle”
  • Setting options in an easy handle
  • Include files to use
  • A first libcurl source code using the easy interface
  • Learn how to get and send data
  • Extract extra information from a performed transfer
  • Some hints on how to debug your libcurl-using code
  • Where and how to ask for help
  • The multi interface

cURL Release Webinar – Featuring Post Quantum cURL

Thursday November 18 at 09:00 Pacific Time (17:00 UTC, 18:00 CET)

I will sum up the curl news in the 7.80.0 release with extra focus and details on and about the post quantum features you can now use!

The webinar will be live and we end with a Q&A session where you can ask me anything, in particular about this release and curl post quantum, but not necessarily limited to that…

Coming webinar: getting started with libcurl

Have you been curious about getting your feet wet with doing Internet transfers with libcurl but reasons (excuses?) have kept you away? Maybe it has felt as a too big step to take?

Fear not, on October 21 I’m doing a free webinar on Getting started with libcurl detailing useful first steps on how to get your initial application off the ground!

Sign up here!

The half-hour presentation will include details such as:

  • Basic fundamentals in the libcurl API and a look on the common data types and concepts.
  • Setting up and understanding a first libcurl transfer.
  • Differences between the two primary libcurl transfer interfaces: easy and multi.
  • A look at the most commonly used libcurl options
  • Suggestions on how and where to take the next steps

The plan is to make this presentation work independently of platform, compiler and IDE choice and it will focus on C/C++ code. Still, since most libcurl bindings are very “thin” and often mimics the C API fairly closely, it should be valuable and provide good information even for you who plan to write your libcurl-using applications in other languages.

We’ll also end the session with a Q&A-part of course so queue up your questions!

The presentation will be recorded and made available after the fact.

Upcoming Webinar: curl: How to Make Your First Code Contribution

When: Aug 13, 2020 10:00 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada) (17:00 UTC)
Length: 30 minutes

Abstract: curl is a wildly popular and well-used open source tool and library, and is the result of more than 2,200 named contributors helping out. Over 800 individuals wrote at least one commit so far.

In this presentation, curl’s lead developer Daniel Stenberg talks about how any developer can proceed in order to get their first code contribution submitted and ultimately landed in the curl git repository. Approach to code and commits, style, editing, pull-requests, using github etc. After you’ve seen this, you’ll know how to easily submit your improvement to curl and potentially end up running in ten billion installations world-wide.
