APL Seeds
APL Seeds was an online conference held by Dyalog Ltd., aimed at new and prospective users of APL. It consisted of half a day with brief overviews of the language, introductions to available resources, and demonstrations of cases where APL has been successfully applied. The sessions were recorded and later released on YouTube and dyalog.tv.
