THE BIGGEST JAVASCRIPT CONFERENCE IN THE CLOUD

As front-end tooling and frameworks continue to evolve and improve at a pace that is often hard to keep up with, serverless abstractions continue to move closer and closer to the client, abstracting away back end services and making them more and more consumable by traditionally front end developers.

In this talk I’ll show how we can use a combination of GraphQL SDL along with a new DSL (GraphQL Transform) created by the Amplify team to build out a full stack cloud application directly from your GraphQL schema. Using this GraphQL DSL, we’ll walk through how to model a Database, authorization rules, relationships, and custom access patterns. We’ll look at how to rapidly prototype an example application, and view some demos including a voting app capable of handling over 100,000 operations per second.

Do you scroll through TikTok, amazed at the goofy, yet complicated dance moves featuring today's youths? Those kids are popping off while you're sitting around, coding SQL queries. Fortunately, we are technologists, and there's no problem we can't solve, including getting better at TikTok dancing. In this talk, I'll show you how I perfected my moves by building PoseDance, your friendly TikTok trainer. We'll discuss how I leveraged PoseNet, which allows you to pinpoint body motion and draw a 'skeleton' on a video. Combined with a webcam mapping your own dance skeleton, a bit of math to compare the matching points, Azure functions to authenticate a user, and PlayFab as a game-friendly backend to keep scores and create a leaderboard, you've got the perfect quarantine pastime, making a perfect fool of yourself in front of a webcam. Come dance with me!

In my journey through nodeland, I always wonder about the cost of my abstractions.

I started a journey to write an HTTP framework with extremely low overhead, and Fastify was born. With its ability to reach an astonishing 90k requests/sec, Fastify can halve your cloud server bill.

In this talk, I will walk you through the basics of the framework: how to route requests, write tests, and use the plugin system.

You've built an app an you want it to scale. Do you want CI/CD, custom domains, SSL certificates, APIs, global scale of your static assets, authentication, and authorization? Let's learn how to build a static web app on Azure and go from GitHub repo to global scale in minutes.

TypeScript is becoming one of the dominant ways in which people write JavaScript. The goal of TypeScript is to augment and not replace JavaScript – so how does the team ensure that the future of JS is always JS.

Composition API is one of the biggest new features in Vue 3. In this talk, I will explain what is it and how to use Composition API for code abstraction and reuse.

Microfrontends as Monolith? Shared component library or styleguide? This technique allows to consume modules from separate builds, which can be developed and deployed independently. An introduction, and further ideas.

Why does '👩🏿‍🎤'.length = 7? Is JavaScript UTF-8 or UTF-16? What happens under the hood when you set ? Have you ever wondered how emoji and complex scripting languages are encoded to work correctly across browsers and devices - for billions of people around the world? Or how new emoji are introduced and approved? Have you ever seen one of these: □ � “special” glyph characters before and want more information on why they might appear and how to avoid them in the future? Let’s talk about Unicode encoding in JavaScript and across the world wide web! We’ll go over best practices, common pitfalls, and provide resources to learn more - even where to go if you want to submit a new emoji proposal! :)

In this presentation, we’ll look at the current state of Angular and its tooling infrastructure. We’ll discuss what features enabled the latest version of our rendering engine Ivy and how you can take advantage of them today.

Along the way, we’ll look at the work we did to ensure small bundle size and fast execution! In the second part of the talk, we’ll focus on the tooling that Angular provides to help you deliver apps quickly and efficiently.

Many modern web frameworks use components as their building blocks.

In this talk, I will show component testing using Cypress - and I mean "show" literally. You will see the component running inside a real browser, you will interact with the component like a real user, and you can debug the component using the real browser's DevTools. Finally, I will go through the current open source and commercial options for visually testing the component's styles and rendering.

Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in your career? Do you constantly feel like you don’t have time to work on your projects? Do you want to learn something new, expand your knowledge, develop yourself and be the best you can be?

In this session, I am going to share my story on how I started coding, how I make time to work on side projects and how you can grow and advance in your career. After this talk, I hope you 'll be inspired to work smarter, make new habits and continue pushing yourself even when things fall apart.

I will present some helpful tips about self-motivation, time-management, setting priorities and goals, staying organized, believing in yourself and keeping a balance between your career and personal life. Additionally, in this session, we are going to talk about building the habit of coding and the benefits of it. We are going to explore ways of finding mentors in your job and outside of it and also expanding your social network.

This talk is not only about getting better at your 9 to 5 job but also about developing yourself.
