🎙️ Talks
WordPress ❤️ React (Using Blocks) by Matt Jennings
Matt will give a brief intro to using WordPress (WP) and React while demoing his Weekly Meetings Block WordPress Plugin, created using WordPress-specific npm packages and React (see demo and GitHub repo).
Matt will discuss how his WP plugin relates to the WP admin and front-end and will briefly talk about other WP and React-related topics.
DRY, not parched by Will Migdol
Recently when working on a project, I tried to write my code to be as optimal as possible to be DRY. The issue was that by doing this, I overengineered a lot of the code to be more DRY than it needed to be which increased a lot of the tech debt in my codebase and actually made it harder to maintain. I would like to give a talk about when DRY is good and when simpler solutions can be better.
Pushing the Limits of Big Data in the Browser by Kenny Daniel
A radical new take on how to architect large data applications entirely in JavaScript – no python required. This talk covers how I built the open-source libraries Hyparquet and HighTable for loading Apache Parquet files client-side in the browser.
