Significance and importance of algorithms can not be overestimated. Even harder to learn how to apply it in the modern Front End, given how many optimizations are done for us by the engines and frameworks. The purpose of this report is to help you understand how this works at a lower level, for example V8, React and not only. Also, what we can do to make mor…

Our work is not only about writing the perfect code. But also about the delivering the product within the planned timeframe. In my tech corner I’ll cover the topics: How to estimate the uncertainty?

Maintainable component structure is a crucial prerequisite for a stable React application. You can achieve this by writing your code in a functional way using the higher-order components (HoCs). I want to show you how to define smart HoCs and use them to enhance your presentational components. You'll also learn how to compose several HoCs to get more complex…

An Introduction to Computer Vision and Augmented Reality in modern web browsers and how to accelerate it with WebGL.

How is it possible to write native applications in JavaScript? In this talk we will meet React-Native and dive a bit into advanced concepts. How React-Native is different from classical hybrid mobile development in JavaScript. We will look how React-Native works and write great mobile applications using animations and navigations.

Let's discuss how Observability enables you to write software that can be managed by software.

Teams today are facing similar problems: How do we encourage the reuse of existing components? How do we raise awareness for them? How do we keep them stable while keeping maintenance efforts low? How do we ensure a coherent branding without exploiting our designers? If you are worried by these questions fear no longer. I aim to show you a way out of this se…

Most of developers are passionated in Open Source, some of them have their own OS projects, some of them have commercial projects hosted on GitHub. Automating projects workflow can simplify daily work and make typical tasks automated.

WebRTC is a free, open project that provides browsers and mobile applications with Real-Time Communications capabilities via simple APIs.

Static typing remains a popular topic for discussions somewhat akin to a battle field. JS development world split up into its proponents and opponents. Don't forget that type-code writing is managed by principles and approached different from those required by vanilla JS. It's a different philosophy, so to say. Type JS is very different from non-type one. Th…

There is a wrong way and a right way to deploy, scale and architect an SPA. If you do it the wrong way you DON'T get the advantages of an SPA, you might as well have built a server-side Express app. If you do it the right way, you can take advantage of optimisations that give you epic scalability, with super low latencies at a fraction of the cost. In this t…

There is always a room for discussion about what to use: tabs or spaces, quotes or double quotes, and so on.
