Join us for coffee, tea, plus a wide selection of food including frittatas, quiche, & fresh fruit! Come and chat with our 15 exciting sponsors who are exhibiting this year. Their booths are staffed by senior software engineers. Come learn about what they’re building, what problems they can solve for you and your team, and maybe even make a new friend!

Settle in for the welcome address by our Master of Ceremonies, Anjana Vakil

Full abstract coming soon -- The talk is about main concurrent features of React 18 for app developers, how to get started with React 18, how to migrate a React 17 or older app to 18, and demo of some concurrent features.

From fetching data to fighting with imperative APIs, side effects are one of the biggest sources of frustration in web app development. And let’s be honest, putting everything in useEffect hooks doesn’t help much. Thankfully, there is a science (well, math) to side effects, formalized in state machines and statecharts, that can help us visually model and understand how to declaratively orchestrate effects, no matter how complex they get. In this talk, we’ll ditch the useEffect hook and discover how these computer science principles can be used to simplify effects in our React apps.

Discuss the morning's topics with your fellow attendees, speakers, and visit the sponsor booths!

Async JavaScript is mind-bending to write, even worse to debug. In this talk, we'll explore why async bugs are difficult, what common missteps create those bugs, and how to debug async code with the debugger.

We've learned that fetching in components is the quickest way to the worst UX. But it's not just the UX that suffers, the developer experience of fetching in components creates a lot of incidental complexity too: data fetching, data mutations, busy spinners, optimistic UI, error handling, form state, network race conditions, user event interruptions, and all the code that holds it together gets pretty difficult! As we've built Remix, we've gotten a lot of practice leaning on React Router's nested route abstraction to solve all of these problems all at once. Now, millions of React Router apps in production can get the same benefits because we've moved the responsibility of knowing When To Fetch into React Router itself!

Grab lunch in the upper lounge by the Silver sponsors and take a seat at one of the picnic tables shaded by the beautiful canopy of trees!

Sanity is a content platform and Sanity Studio is what some might call the 'CMS' part of Sanity. It's an open source React app with the hard problems solved out of the box and customizability to make it your own. Learn how to use your existing React skills to shape Sanity Studio into a bespoke tool your content team will love.

From our perspective of shipping countless React Native apps over the last seven years, React Native has grown and continues to evolve. There are some major changes coming! Most people have heard of "the React Native bridge", but have you heard of TurboModules, Fabric, and codegen? This talk is a fast-pass to the front of the line in React Native’s upcoming new architecture and how it's going to recast cross-platform development. Let’s review what you need to know.

Error state, loading state, awkward breakpoint, bad data, poor formatting, browser support. Every component is a multitude of challenges. How do you actually manage it? Disable the network — temporarily. Insert bad code — just for a minute. Paw at the edge of your screen. Hack local database fixtures to bits. Frontend development is a multiverse where dimensions like time and variation result in an infinite number of UI possibilities. In this talk, we'll use Storybook to progressively develop, test, document our work and tame the multiverse of our components.

Discuss the afternoon's topics with your fellow attendees, speakers, and visit the sponsor booths!

The way we write JavaScript in 2030 will be completely different than in 2020. With IE11 finally ending this year, the adoption of ES Modules have birthed a new generation of JavaScript tooling. These tools are faster, typesafer, and polyglot, leading to both a better developer and user experience. This talk is an in depth look into what's changed and what we've learned, 3 years in to the Third Age.
