Client-server communication is one of the most problematic parts of web development. Luckily for us, there are excellent tools in the React ecosystem ready to tackle this problem. During my talk, we're going to explore the not-so-new way of handling the API layer, but before that — I will take you to the 80s to see how we got here.

Video editing is a booming market with influencers being all the rage with Reels, TikTok, Youtube. Did you know that browsers now have all the APIs to do video editing in the browser? In this talk I'm going to give you a primer on how video encoding works and how to make it work within the browser. Spoiler, it's not trivial!

There are many variables to consider when discussing web performance in 2023. 'R is for React Performance' is a fun, ACCESSIBLE, and unique talk which runs through every letter of the alphabet, discussing a coordinating API or best practice, explaining the term, and its relationship with web performance and React. Using available data, this talk also exposes areas of possible improvements with each term so that developers walk away with not only data points, but also increased performance literacy which is essential in web performance today.

How easy is it to accidentally transition from being productive to burning out? In this talk, we'll be exploring the unexpected states of burnout: how burnout can manifest, and how it can impact our lives in unexpected ways. I'll also share some tips for managing burnout and preventing it from taking over our lives, drawing from experience working in a highly-productive startup. We tend to think in the moment in life - I'm tired, I'm hungry, I'm burnt out. But we sometimes fail to think about the transitions between the states - how did I become tired, burnt out, and how do I transition to a better state? Then, how do I avoid taking the transitions back to states I don't want to be in? Thinking in terms of states and transitions is a useful mental model not only for software development, but for understanding yourself and having better control of your life.

A ton of people don't actually know how to use dev tools. In this talk I'll explore some of the better features of dev tools, and how they can help you find bugs faster, make your apps run quicker, and even center a div.

The web. What started as a document sharing platform has evolved into an application platform. The web has been through a number of transformations over the years. From static HTML files to dynamic server-generated HTML responses. Then to REST or GraphQL APIs consumed by JavaScript-heavy clients with the Jamstack. The web is entering a completely new transformation. Modern infrastructure and techniques have changed the rules of what it means to make an excellent user experience. In this new future, what's old is new and what's modern is lacking.  In this keynote, Kent C. Dodds will show you how this transformation will impact your user experience, your development productivity, and your business goals. The future of the web is distributed. It's faster. It's cheaper. It's exciting. Kent will show you what you can do to stay in front of it (and no, I'm not talking about web3 or web5 ).

Blockchain technology is complicated. In this talk, I’ll share a project we created at Visa to help our clients and colleagues feel the pulse of the Ethereum blockchain. This project leverages @pmndrs suite of React libraries to bring clarity to complexity through sensory experience.

Building realtime collaborative applications used to be hard and expensive. But recent years have created a shift in the ecosystem where technologies like edge computing, CRDTs, and other realtime technologies make this accessible for regular developers to use. Sunil does a quick tour of how to build collaborative applications, and does a demo that gets the entire audience to go wild in a shared space!

Everything's Better With Friends

The web platform has leveled up significantly in the past few months. There are so many powerful new CSS and UI capabilities at your fingertips that you might not even know about that can reduce your script payload and make your life a lot easier. This talk covers some of the new landings in the native web space space, such as powerful new selectors, container queries, experimental native UI components (and more) to improve your developer experience.
