Maximum Efficiency: A Primer on Capacitor
Quick, what is the quickest way to bring your product to the app stores? In today's landscape, trying to get into the app store can mean spending weeks deciding what tool to use and then rewriting your entire app. But the web, and mainly Capacitor, can simplify that. Take your existing web app, add Capacitor to the mix, and you have a native app that's ready for the stores! Let's see what's possible Capacitor and why it can help you ship faster.

Bringing Your Web App to Native With Capacitor
Workshop Free
So, you have a killer web app you've built and want to take it from your web browser to the App Store. Sure, there are a lot of options here, but most will require you to maintain separate apps for each platform. You want your codebase to be as close as possible across Web, Android, and iOS. Thankfully, with Capacitor, you can take your existing web app and quickly create native iOS and Android apps for distribution on your favorite App Store!
Contents: This workshop is aimed at beginner developers that have an existing web application, or are interested in mobile development. We will go over:
- What is Capacitor
- How does it compare to other cross-platform solutions
- Using Capacitor to build a native application using your existing web code
- Tidying up our application for distribution on mobile app stores with naming conventions, icons, splash screens and more

So, you have a killer React app you've built and want to take it from your web browser to the App Store. Sure, there are a lot of options here, but most will require you to maintain separate apps for each platform. You want your codebase to be as close as possible across Web, Android, and iOS.

A New Kind of Abstraction
Developers often look at abstractions as being "the closer to the metal, the better," meaning that as abstractions become further removed from the lowest possible level, the more you give up in terms of performance and features. But abstractions work as a spectrum also. We'll look at how we can adjust our view of abstractions and what kind of examples we can use to better understand that abstractions have less to do with programming and more to do with where we deploy.

Building for Web and Native with Ionic & React
Workshop
When building an app, there are many options choices developers need to make. Is it a web app? Does need to be a native app? What should I use for UI? In this workshop will look at how to make use of Ionic for building your app and how to deploy it to not only the web, but native as well.

Bringing Ionic (and Web Components) to React
Ionic is a framework for building fast and powerful mobile, desktop, and web apps with web technology. Traditionally, Ionic has been built on top of one framework: Angular. But recently, Ionic added support for React, and aims to bring the same great development experience to the React ecosystem. In this talk, we’ll look at how an Ionic React app works and how this changes the React ecosystem (surprise, it's because of Web Components).
