NodeConf Argentina 2017
Argentina is among the first international Node.js conferences taking place in Latin American territory, and a not-for-profit community effort to push Node.js forward in Argentina and Latin America as a whole. This year’s conference will be a three–day event in sunny Buenos Aires, Argentina, held during October 26th, 27th & 28th. Both action-packed days will be comprised of internationally acclaimed, regional, and local speakers. We are expecting Noders, JavaScripters, front-enders, and other programmers from all over the world. Our topmost concern is to guarantee the most enjoyable experience to our attendees, while providing a safe and welcoming environment for everyone.

🎤 EVERYTHING I THOUGHT I KNEW ABOUT THE EVENT LOOP WAS WRONG
- 📹 1 video
- 👤 Daniel Khan
"Node.js is an event-based platform. This means that everything that happens in Node is the reaction to an event. A transaction passing through Node traverses a cascade of callbacks. Abstracted away from the developer, this is all handled by a library called libuv which provides a mechanism called an event loop. This event loop is maybe the most misunderstoo… -
