JS Nation

JSNation 2023

As developers we stand on the shoulders of giants, and it can be helpful to take a look at the past to gain a better perspective. In this talk we’ll briefly explore the past decade of backend development and architectural patterns. We’ve often ditched technologies in an attempt to make the developer experience frictionless. However we sometimes forget what we can learn from “the good old days”. What are you building: a monolith, a microservices system or something in between? A shift in how we see things can help us keep moving forwards.

Grafbase is a data platform for developers that lets you build and deploy GraphQL backends with a top-notch developer experience.

Deno and Node.js have a lot in common. They are both non-browser JavaScript runtimes built on the V8 engine. Deno and Node.js are also different in a lot of ways: TypeScript, CommonJS, package management, permission systems, tooling, native addons, browser compatibility. This talk will compare and contrast the two runtimes, focusing on what experienced Node.js developers need to know in order to succeed with Deno.

React Summit

React Summit 2022

It is very difficult to scale modern web applications to millions of concurrent users. Oftentimes, we've got to provision and consider in-memory Key/Value stores, search engines, analytics engines, and databases, all while preserving traceability through the layers. This talk expands on the technical details of web apps at this scale, and offers a simpler way to achieve the same effect without the technical hassle.

In this lightning talk we will review some basic principles of event based systems using NodeJS and Kafka and get insights of real mission critical use cases where the default configurations are not enough. We will cover quick tips and tricks and good practices of Kafka with NodeJS using KafkaJS library and see some real code at a lightning speed.

TS Congress

TypeScript Congress 2022

We all love writing types in TypeScript, but we often find ourselves having to write types in another language as well: SQL. This talk will present the choose-your-own-adventure story that you face when combining TypeScript and SQL and will walk you through the tradeoffs between the various options. Combined poorly, TypeScript and SQL can be duplicative and a source of headaches, but done well they can complement one another by addressing each other's weaknesses.

Node Congress 2022

NodeJS is a server-side representation of Javascript that can work well as an application's backend and can be run on various servers and infrastructures. In this talk, we'll be going through the journey of how Nodejs has been deployed over the years via various infrastructures from PaaS to Containers. You can check the slides for Shedrack's talk <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1olBLlCmJKzr-0sYw6olVJP6Nju4aDiQl/view?usp=sharing">here</a>.  <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

We've got a JavaScript frontend hitting a Node (Express.js) backend. We'll go through how to know which party is responsible for which error, what the impact is, and all the context needed to solve it. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

GraphQL Galaxy 2021

Every (frontend) developer is asking for a GraphQL API but often lacks the backend knowledge to create a performant server. There are many different flavors in creating the perfect GraphQL server, ranging from schema-first to code-first or even auto generated solutions. Let me show you the pros and cons of each solution so, after this talk, you'll know which solution would best fit your team. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

React Advanced

React Advanced Conference 2021

Why are we devs so obsessed with decoupling things that are coupled nature? tRPC is a library that replaces the need for GraphQL or REST for internal APIs. When using it, you simply write backend functions whose input and output shapes are instantly inferred in your frontend without any code generation; making writing API schemas a thing of the past. It's lightweight, not tied to React, HTTP-cacheable, and can be incrementally adopted. In this talk, I'll give a glimpse of the DX you can get from tRPC and how (and why) to get started.

Vue.js Live Conference

Vue.js London Live 2021

Vue.js is a frontend framework. But the different modules, such as the reactivity engine can be imported on its own. Let's have some fun and explore possible use cases for Vue reactivity in the backend. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

Learn how you as a developer can use our InfluxDB Cloud web interface to ingest, explore, analyze, and understand your data. We'll highlight new capabilities and show you some tips and tricks to get the most out of the InfluxDB Cloud Platform. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

Prisma is an open-source ORM for Node.js and TypeScript. In this workshop, you’ll learn the fundamental Prisma workflows to model data, perform database migrations and query the database to read and write data. You’ll also learn how Prisma fits into your application stack, building a REST API and a GraphQL API from scratch using SQLite as the database. Table of contents: - Setting up Prisma, data modeling &amp; migrations- Exploring Prisma Client to query the database- Building REST API routes with Express- Building a GraphQL API with Apollo Server <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

Welcome to Fauna! This workshop helps GraphQL developers build performant applications with Fauna that scale to any size userbase. You start with the basics, using only the GraphQL playground in the Fauna dashboard, then build a complete full-stack application with Next.js, adding functionality as you go along. In the first section, Getting started with Fauna, you learn how Fauna automatically creates queries, mutations, and other resources based on your GraphQL schema. You learn how to accomplish common tasks with GraphQL, how to use the Fauna Query Language (FQL) to perform more advanced tasks. In the second section, Building with Fauna, you learn how Fauna automatically creates queries, mutations, and other resources based on your GraphQL schema. You learn how to accomplish common tasks with GraphQL, how to use the Fauna Query Language (FQL) to perform more advanced tasks. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

This workshop will explore how to build GraphQL APIs backed Neo4j, a native graph database. The Neo4j GraphQL Library allows developers to quickly design and implement fully functional GraphQL APIs without writing any resolvers. This workshop will show how to use the Neo4j GraphQL Library to build a Node.js GraphQL API, including adding custom logic and authorization rules. Table of contents: - Overview of GraphQL and building GraphQL APIs - Building Node.js GraphQL APIs backed a native graph database using the Neo4j GraphQL Library - Adding custom logic to our GraphQL API using the @cypher schema directive and custom resolvers - Adding authentication and authorization rules to our GraphQL API <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

Deno 1.9 introduced a new web server API that takes advantage of Hyper, a fast and correct HTTP implementation for Rust. Using this API instead of the std/http implementation increases performance and provides support for HTTP2. In this workshop, learn how to create a web server utilizing Hyper under the hood and boost the performance for your web apps. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>
