Who is Jason Keays? How to talk about technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
“Who is Jason Keays and why do I never see him?” This question was asked in a meeting where we referenced a lot of keys in JSON files on the project. When you have to work with people with no technical background, it can bring some challenges along the way. Things that are familiar to you could be gibberish for others. Using a real-world example, this talk gives you an insight into how you could descend to the non-technical world and cooperate without having to write a dictionary for every stakeholder.

JSON Schema Validation; A dating show between backend and frontend.
JSON schema validation is a way to describe the structure and types of your data. This allows you to validate what you receive. You can generate TypeScript code from your schemas, create validation scripts, and benefit from extensive error reporting and bug logging. By integrating JSON schema validation into your pipeline and workflow, you can enhance data accuracy and streamline troubleshooting.
Using a live interactive dating show, Jorrik outlines the potential of JSON schema validation and how it helps your team ensure consistent data in your frontend. As the audience, you will have the opportunity to influence the outcome of the dating show. Meanwhile, some helpful functions are demonstrated that will aid you to speed up data processing in your frontend codebase, as it did for Jorrik.
This talk is suitable for anyone who needs to work with data and complex structures. You will gain an understanding of how to prevent runtime errors and invalid values from occurring. Join this talk for an engaging and practical insight into reliability and data validation.
preferred duration: 20-45 minutes.

A Large Language Model took me on vacation
Imagine handing over your vacation planning to an AI. Sounds crazy, right? That's exactly what Jorrik did for his trip to Porto in Portugal. ChatGPT picked everything from restaurants to the sightseeing spots. But this trip taught Jorrik more than just how to order pastel de nata in Portuguese.
In this talk, you'll dive into different parallels between prompting engineering AI for travel tips and using it for coding and problem-solving. You'll learn why context is king in AI interactions and ways to provide it effectively. Jorrik will walk you through real examples from my AI-planned adventure, showing how each interaction unlocked new insights into advanced prompting techniques. Plus, he will introduce you to "Indirect Conversation," a new method he describes as "pushing AI's creative boundaries"."
Integrating AI in the front-end is now everywhere to be found. And creating web applications, prompt engineering is set to become a crucial skill in our developers toolkit. The techniques you'll learn aren't just for planning vacations. They're the building blocks for creating smarter, more intuitive AI-powered interfaces. Whether you're designing chatbots, implementing AI-assisted search, or build the next-gen AI-driven web app, mastering these prompting skills will give you a significant benefit in creating a seamless user experience.
By the end of this session, you'll walk away with practical skills to supercharge your AI interactions, whether you're planning your next vacation or tackling complex coding challenges. You'll gain a fresh perspective on AI's capabilities and limitations, and you'll be equipped with strategies to get more innovative, useful responses from AI tools. Get ready for a session that's a bit of fun, part travelogue, mainly tech talk, and entirely eye-opening!
This presentation is packed with useful content, aimed at helping the audience improve their skills in working with AI. Jorrik brings his experience as a Frontend Engineer and an enthusiastic AI user to the table, combining technical knowledge with a practical approach. The goal is to make the audience see the potential in their AI tools and inspire them to explore new ways of interacting with technology.
