Metaphors are an essential means of communication and method of teaching for developers. Without them and Lin Clark, it would be much more difficult for teams to adopt Redux. But learning by association has its limits. When we only discuss the things we can relate to we reinforce existing stereotypes that box us in. Instead of thinking outside the box, we will discuss how thinking about the box itself is the key to breaking down our unconscious bias. Together we will learn how to dismantle the concepts that divide us, techniques for better engaging with people of all backgrounds, and how to empower the systems we work in to be even more performant than our code.

Slides: https://speakerdeck.com/aemkei/jsconf-budapest-invisible-code http://2015.jsconfbp.com/#aemkei The JavaScript world has seen stunning demos in 1024 bytes, crazy hacks in 140 characters and esoteric sequences of only 6 different symbols. This talk will push the limits even further and reveal, how to write "Invisible Code": Hidden programs that will execute with mind-bending magic.

Just bring those phones, and let's go underground. Let's sit on a train and play music, left to our own devices, with our own devices.

Slides: https://github.com/mattpodwysocki/jsconfbp-2015 http://2015.jsconfbp.com/#mattpodwysocki What’s does a mouse drag event have in common with an Array of numbers? The answer to this question may surprise you: they are both collections. This key insight holds the key to dramatically simplifying asynchronous programming in JavaScript. In this talk you will learn how you can use the familiar JavaScript Array methods to create surprisingly expressive asynchronous programs. Using just a few functions, you will learn how to do the following: - Declaratively build complex events out of simple events (ex. drag n’ drop) - Coordinate and sequence multiple Ajax requests - Reactively update UI’s in response to data changes - Eliminate memory leaks caused by neglecting to unsubscribe from events - Gracefully propagate and handle asynchronous exception In this talk we’ll be exploring the Reactive Extensions (RxJS) library (http://github.com/reactive-extensions/RxJS), which allows us to treat events as collections. You’ll learn about how Netflix uses Rx on the client and the server, allowing us to build end-to-end reactive systems. We’ll also contrast Rx with Promises, another popular approach to building asynchronous programs in JavaScript.

Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/mikaelbr/budapest-49024114 http://2015.jsconfbp.com/#mikaelbrevik Let us bring back the days where we could write declarative representations of how we want our UI components to work. We should be able to read our code from top to bottom and intuitively know what the output will be, just like the good old HTML, but with the power of functional programming. In this talk we'll explore bringing functional programming into views. Instead of moving logic to markup through weird DSLs we bring expressive views into the programming language. We'll see how to create a UI where we have composable, pure and referentially transparent components; components with no side-effects and predictable output. We couple this with immutable data and components with single responsibilities, and we can get a fast and smart way to build UIs with a unidirectional flow and a simpler static mental model.

Slides: https://speakerdeck.com/boennemann/we-fail-to-follow-semver-and-why-it-neednt-matter-1 http://2015.jsconfbp.com/#boennemann If extensive libraries and even the tiniest module followed SemVer strictly, dependency hell would be a thing of the past … but humans weren’t made to follow rules. There are over 125.000 packages on npm today. By the time of this conference, at least another 10.000 will have been added. Using the right packages in your own modules and applications makes JavaScript the joy to develop it is today. But if even immensely popular libraries fail to properly declare breaking changes, how can we trust the over 50.000 strangers who developed all these modules? Currently we can’t. Let me show you how to write confidence-inspiring modules by leaving package publishing up to the machines – instead of buggy humans.

Slides: https://speakerdeck.com/sebarmeli/enforcing-coding-standards-in-a-js-project http://2015.jsconfbp.com/#sebarmeli This talk is around enforcing coding standards in your JS project. We’ll discuss, as a use case, one of the libraries we use at Spotify in order to show the importance of keeping standards in your codebase. In this session we’ll cover a few tools and practices you might want to follow when you build a JS library.

http://2015.jsconfbp.com/#juliancheal Web apps are great and everything, but imagine using JS to fly drones and make them dance to the sounds of dubstep! Or to control disco lights and other robots! Sounds fun, right? In this talk, we will not only explore how we can write code to make this possible, but it will also be full of exciting, interactive (and possibly dangerous ;) ) demos!
