Building a Better Hammer - The Story of Nuxt 4
We'll explore what's new in Nuxt 4, and the architectural decisions we've made to make it 'a better hammer', no matter what kind of project you're facing. I'm aiming for something useful for anyone, even if they don't use Nuxt. So thinking about framework philosophy, and inspiring people with what's under the hood.

Making Magic: Building a TypeScript-First Framework
I'll dive into the internals of Nuxt to describe how we've built a TypeScript-first framework that is deeply integrated with the user's IDE and type checking setup to offer end-to-end full-stack type safety, hints for layouts, middleware and more, typed runtime configuration options and even typed routing. Plus, I'll highlight what I'm most excited about doing in the days to come and how TypeScript makes that possible not just for us but for any library author.

TypeScript for Library Authors: Harnessing the Power of TypeScript for DX
Using real-life open-source examples, we'll explore the power of TypeScript to improve your users' experience. We'll cover best practices for library authors, as well as tips and tricks for how to take a library to the next level. This talk will cover: 
- how to leverage the type inference to provide help to your users; - using types to reduce the need and complexity of your documentation - for example, using function overloads, string literal types, and helper (no-op) functions; - setting up testing to ensure your library works (and your types do too!) with tools like tsd and expect-type; - treating types as an API and reducing breaking changes whilst shipping enhancements; - I'd draw on my experience with libraries like nuxt3, sanity-typed-queries and typed-vuex and show what we managed to do and what I'd do differently in future.
