Quick Apps: easy coding, frictionless UX | Martin Alvarez-Espinar | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Martin Alvarez-Espinar Web Standards Manager @ Huawei Technologies Quick App is a framework that implements the W3C MiniApp specifications, a new concept of hybrid light applications that do not require installation and offer native user interfaces. This talk presents Quick Apps as a platform for mobile application development, based on the widely known front-end web technologies (i.e., HTML, JS, CSS) and an MVVM architecture. It enables developers to create “light” applications more efficiently, using built-in components and advanced access to a host devices’ native resources like the calendar or running the app in the background. Quick apps help deliver products and services with an accelerated time-to-market process and tools for product lifecycle management, including promotion, user acquisition, monetization, and user retention… All packaged in less than 1MB.

Generate pages on demand: ISG With Layer0 and Nuxt.js | Rishi Raj Jain | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Rishi Raj Jain Solutions Engineer @ Layer0 by Limelight Networks With the introduction of Core Web Vitals into Google Search Ranking, it is high time for developers to focus on performance. To get the static-like performance in dynamic applications, developers of Next.js introduced Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) as “updating static content after you have already built your site”. But the benefits only applied to Next.js apps, and that’s where Layer0 comes in with their platform to provide benefits of ISG to any framework. In this talk, I want to explore what is Incremental Static Generation (ISG), the benefits, the drawbacks, how ISG can be implemented with Nuxt.js and Layer0, extend that idea to different frameworks and finally showcase an awesome example with Nuxt.js.

Ducks, Re-ducks, Redux-tools | Sergii Zhuravel | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Sergii Zhuravel Lead Software Engineer @ Absio Redux is a king of the state management in the React world, even though more and more competitors appear. But Redux always had some problems and developers coplained about. We will review what problems developers have with Redux and how the community tried to resolve them in the last several years. We will see evolution of the Redux apps sctructuring - from ducks to the Redux Toolkit. Plan: 1. Redux in 2021? 2. Why good structure for Redux apps is very important 3. What is wrong with the common approaches in Redux apps 4. Ducks in details 5. Re-ducks and how it differs with Ducks 6. What problems Redux Toolkit resolves and how to start to use it. 7. Testing of the duckses Other talks at this conference 🚀🪐 https://www.conf42.com/js2021 — 0:00 Intro 0:26 Talk

Spidey Senses: Anomaly detection for Javascript apps | Ron Lyle Dagdag | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Ron Lyle Dagdag Lead Software Engineer @ Spacee Anomaly detection is the process of identifying unexpected items or events in data sets. It’s about detecting the deviation from expected pattern of a dataset. It’s like having “spidey senses” for your apps that can detect when there’s danger or something is not right. Attend this session and learn about using anomaly detection in javascript and Cognitive Services API, become a superhero and save the day.

Highway to Elm, a safer and funnier front-end world! | Jordane Grenat | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Jordane Grenat Software Engineer, Web @ Viseo Thanks to non-handled null and undefined, the dependencies hell of npm and the hazardous refactoring power of Javascript, it is really hard to trustfully release Javascript code into production! But this is a necessary evil, given the fact that this is the only language compatible with every browsers, isn’t it? NO! Together we will discover another way of coding your front-end with Elm, a language with a simple promise: no more runtime error! Let’s see how this wonderful language – specifically designed to build web applications – can make us happier when doing front-end code and more importantly more confident about our releases!

Scaling WordPress with Next.js | Colby Fayock | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Colby Fayock Developer Advocate @ Applitools When it comes to Content Management Systems (CMS), WordPress is still king. But it’s not the most scalable of solutions and it can be tough working on custom solutions with it as a developer. WordPress however is still a compelling solution. It has a familiar publishing experience for technical and non-technical people alike with a long history of developers supporting the ecosystem with plugins and development support. How does WordPress fit in with a world full of modern CMS solutions and how can we still leverage it to build scalable websites with Next.js? We’ll walk through how we can take advantage of Next.js, utilizing its APIs, to develop a fully static WordPress website. We’ll walk through a Next.js concept Starter and how I was able to bring some of the best parts of WordPress to the static web.

Pragmatic State Management | Joshua Arvin Lat | Conf42 JavaScript 2021
Joshua Arvin Lat CTO @ NuWorks Interactive Labs It is not an easy task to manage state in evolving web applications. We will talk about the different solutions when dealing with state management in React, Angular, and Vue.js apps. These frameworks and libraries have their own ways of managing state. We will talk about the similarities of these options but we will discuss in detail the major differences as well. Careful planning is needed to help manage risks, especially when suddenly introducing state management solutions to an existing project. In most cases, this will impact the complexity level of the project which may then affect the timelines significantly. As we go through several examples using these JavaScript frameworks and libraries, we will bridge the gap between reality and expectations on what really works in real projects. Here, we will bridge the gap between reality and expectations especially on what really works in real-life projects.
