raygui is a very lightweight immediate-mode UI intended for tools development, combined with raylib, it allows the creation of small high-performant wasm web tools. In this talk we will analyze this specific use case for tools development.

In this talk, I will share my experience in game development using ReactJS/CSS. We will explore how to make the most out of the component management provided by this library, along with the capabilities of CSS for creating an appealing user interface. Additionally, we will uncover how to leverage the React Three Fiber library to create games with a 3D experience.

How many times did you say or hear “this is business logic, it should not be here”?In this workshop, we will create a modern frontend application using old patterns and you will learn how to build apps that have decoupled UI and services.We will start with a React application that has its whole logic in the UI. Then step by step we will extract the rules and operations to hit that sweet spot of independence.

Should we have business logic in the UI?

With *dialog* and the inert attribute landing in all major browsers in 2022, we as web developers now have simple yet powerful primitives to help build complex app-like flows on the web, rather than the over-engineered or leaky solutions we've relied on for years. Let's demystify these primitives and talk through how they make your code simpler: from plain HTML, Web Components, to React/similar.

TestJS Summit 2021

Imagine writing a complex function without unit tests. You would have to verify every scenario manually, over and over again. Cumbersome, but that's how most teams build user interfaces. Imagine if you could build UIs and test UIs in the same place. If your components included expectations for how they were supposed to behave, you'd know the instant they broke.Storybook provides an organized approach to building UIs. You document a component's use-cases as stories, which are then rendered in isolation. Stories are like tests, but for UI. Storybook interaction testing allows you to script interactions and check expectations in the story itself. That allows you to run and debug UI tests in the same environment UI components are developed for: your browser. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

In this talk I’m going to convince you that paid UI components will solve all your problems, and that you should immediately give me all of your money. Maybe. Or perhaps I’ll draw on my experience working both on free and open source tools (jQuery, jQuery UI, NativeScript), as well as paid tools (Kendo UI, KendoReact), and discuss which type of tool makes sense depending on your team and needs. In any case the talk will go fast because lightning is in the title. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

Why Paid UI Components Aren’t Evil

If your company is anything like the ones I’ve worked for, you have apps with seven different button designs, three different datepickers, and a bizarre collection of dropdowns that may or may not be accessible. A growing trend to deal with this inconsistency is to build a custom design system or component library. Essentially, you build The One Way™ to create a datepicker for your organization, and ask that the rest of your company to conform to your new system. But building a component library comes with a lot of challenges, like, which frameworks or libraries should you use (if any)? How do you make sure your components are accessible? And how to you distribute your components so your whole company can use them? In this lightning talk you’ll learn how to build a component library fast building on top of a library like Kendo UI. You’ll learn tips &amp; tricks on how to get up and running, how to customize components, and how to distribute components throughout your organization. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>
