How to build a FreeBSD CI/CD environment based on pot container (Fosdem 19)
Use pot containers to implement a CI/CD pipeline on FreeBSD. The presentation highlights the internal structure of the project, showing how jails and ZFS are used to efficiently implement a build pipeline.

Gaming on FreeBSD
Steam is a gaming platform that sells and manages games on Windows and Linux. Since FreeBSD has some pretty good Linux emulation, it is possible – with some footnotes – to run Linux Steam Games on FreeBSD. This was already possible in 2016 but the tooling keeps being updated, so let’s take a look at how things work.

FreeBSD - Linux Binary Compatibility
FreeBSD provides binary compatibility with Linux, allowing users to install and run most Linux binaries on a FreeBSD system without having to first modify the binary. It has even been reported that, in some situations, Linux binaries perform better on FreeBSD than they do on Linux.
In this video, Marko Tasic gives us a clean practical introduction to the topic.
More info about Linux binary compatibility:

The ZFS Filesystem
ZFS is known as 'the last word in filesystems'. This workshop will get your hands dirty with installing, configuring and managing reliable and scalable storage systems with ZFS on FreeBSD. The talk covers pool-based storage, optimising storage systems for performance and redundancy and practise zero-downtime recovery from common storage events such as failing disks or running out of space.

Oh, a new UNIX shell
Oh is an attempt to reduce the Unix shell’s strangeness while retaining its fundamental characteristics. Oh is familiar and recognizable as a Unix shell but with:
- A more consistent and extensible syntax;
- Richer data types, including first-class pipes, objects, and methods; and
- Support for concurrent, higher-order and modular programming.
You love your shell. You’ve been using it for ages and are extremely efficient with it but there are times when its little quirks are enough to drive you mad.

Ports - The FreeBSD AppStore*
*FreeBSD ports - the "App Store" that existed before the term was claimed as trademark. But have you looked under the hood to see how it works?
This presentation by Ben Woods at Linux Conf Au, will provide an introduction to the FreeBSD ports tree works, including:
- why the ports tree is required
- the use case for ports, and how this has evolved over time
- ports tree internals - how it works
- ports development - examples of how to change an existing port, and how to create a new port
- the road to becoming a ports committer, and how you can contribute to the ports tree
