View Transitions: The brand-new browser API that will blow your mind

Have you ever wondered why a well-made native app often feels way smoother than a similar web page? The answer is that native apps have long wielded the full power of seamless transitions, while on the web we have had to use heavy JavaScript frameworks to accomplish anything remotely similar.

That ends now! In this lightning talk we will take a look at the brand new View Transitions API, a browser API that lets you control every aspect of the transition between web pages with just a few lines of CSS. In addition to seeing what the API is capable of we will dive under the hood to see how exactly the API does its magic.

Swiss cheese, teamwork and other things we should learn from the aviation industry

How did “metal tube, 12 kilometres above the ground” become one of the safest ways to travel, and how can it make you a better developer, designer, or manager?

The aviation industry has turned teamwork and iterative improvement into a science, and proven their importance time and time again. With their radical attitude towards failure, their understanding of what makes for a good team and their reverence of the once-controversial checklist, there is still so much we, as IT professionals, can learn from aviation.

Expect to walk away from this session with a new perspective on how we make products, with fresh ideas based on wisdom from one of the world's most interesting industries.

Exploring Features in Modern CSS

How often do you take the time to read about all the cool new stuff that's been added to CSS in the last few years? I did exactly that, so you don't have to, and I want to share the awesome features I found with you!

Did you know that changing the styling of an element based on the width of its parent is actually really easy? And how about custom colors for native input elements or a powerful way to control page transition animations? It's all just a few lines of CSS away!

Join me in this lightning talk as we take a quick look at 7 CSS features that range from relatively new to cutting edge. We of course also cover how these can be used in practice without throwing older browsers to the wolves.
