NativeScript opens up a whole new world for the Angular developers - a world where you can use your web skills to build truly native mobile apps that run both on Android and iOS. But we can go even further - what if I told you can extend your existing web application with a shiny mobile app? It is true - Angular's platform agnostic nature allows you to reuse…

While NgRx seems like the de facto state management solution for Angular application, we have NgXS - designed to be simple & accessible, took many of the concepts of Redux but reimagined them for Angular. In this talk, we will talk why NgXS & its concepts.

As Angular developers we use decorators every day -- from class decorators such as @Component, @Module, and @Directive, to property decorators like @Input and @Output. These little accessories to our code can be powerful mechanisms for keeping our applications simple and easy to understand. Let's take a peek at how the core Angular decorators bring our code …

Are you still console-logging all of your Node.js code? Would you like to learn to debug with zero configuration? How about debugging docker? Or logging messages without changing your code with console.log? Would you like an easier way to pair when you just need a second set of eyes to debug your app? Join me and learn how easy it can be to find and squash t…

How many times have you googled an Angular CLI command or decided to just manually go through the steps instead of bothering with the CLI?

Developers love what ServiceWorkers can do for their users, but working with them is not so easy. In this talk we will cover how service workers can be used to maximize performance, increase user engagement and re…

Recursion and iteration usually seem like epic rivals, on opposite sides of a fundamental tradeoff between machine- and human-efficiency. Iteration's stateful repetition can be more performant, but many coders prefer to work with the self-referential abstraction of recursion. But in this talk we'll see that with a little love from JS, these apparently star-c…

We have experienced a revolution in the Front-End with innovative ideas from Frameworks and libraries, however, how can our Back-End learn and benefit from this?, The architecture in Node can be a headache, Do not lose your mind!. Let's increase our technical skills and level of happiness, building robust applications in a simple, consistent and fast way, wi…

WebSockets are known to power real-time updates for usages such as chat applications. However, these WebSockets also double as spies! They can stealthily report back on how the user is interacting with your app to enable you to make informed decisions and guide the future of your app. In this talk, we'll start with some background on WebSockets and work our …

Everyone wants their apps to load fast and feel snappy. But if we're not focusing on app performance as part of our daily work, it's easy to end up with a janky, slow-loading app. In this talk, Jeff will talk about the techniques he utilizes to help enterprise teams quickly measure, analyze, and improve application performance using a combination of open sou…

Frontend development today gives you more choices than ever before. Apollo or REST? Cypress or Protractor? Jest or Karma? What about tools like Prettier and NestJS? In this talk, we will cover when you would want to use these innovative tools, and how to integrate them into your development workflow using Nrwl Nx and Angular CLI.

A new age of automated software testing is upon us and Angular-based frameworks can play a key role in paving the way forward. AI-driven testing tools leverage machine learning to tackle difficult software testing challenges such as web UI discovery, modeling, test generation, and bug detection. Designing appropriate interfaces for these types of tools is a …

Dependency Injection framework is a core and inherent feature of both Nest and Angular. DI simplifies creating scalable, testable, and maintainable applications by giving us flexible and efficient abstractions. However, did we ever think how this mechanism works underneath? In this talk, we’ll compare how Nest and Angular DI systems differ from each other as…

In this talk I will give a very short introduction about GraphQL and then dive deep into new use cases you probably haven't thought of where GraphQL fit in the picture and improve your developer life, even if you don't have a GraphQL backend at all!
