Hi, I'm Marko Skugor and I love front end! I have over a decade of experience in the industry ranging from full stack development to specializing in design systems, accessibility, and frontend architecture. I've helped modernize applications across a wide variety of industries, and believe that investment in UX research is the most valuable choice any company can make. In my free time I like to hang out with my cats and do nerd stuff in beautiful sunny Columbus, OH.

The Micro-Frontend Playbook
Micro-frontend architecture can provide a lot of great benefits to team autonomy and can play a crucial role in enabling technical and organizational scalability. At the same time, it also comes with a lot of potential pitfalls and anti-patterns to avoid. In this talk we'll learn how to apply Domain Driven Design concepts to the front-end of an application as well as several techniques for splitting up a monolithic web application into smaller independently deployable parts. From composition, caching, routing, state management, authentication & communication patterns all the way to test automation strategy, we'll go over some practical approaches and some "gotchas" to avoid if you are considering micro-frontend architecture for your organization.
Target audience: architects, front-end developers, engineering managers
Design Systems as a Foundation for Accessibility
Design systems are at their core a repository of solved UX interaction design problems made re-usable and highly visible for others to leverage. Accessibility, on the other hand, is an outcome that is usually hard fought for and hard won for any organization - especially at scale. As technologists, it's our responsibility to build applications that allow everyone to participate more actively in society, and design systems provide the perfect architecture to get started on that journey. An accessible design system provides us much more than just a foundation for building with accessible components - it also provides a centralized source of documentation on how to get the larger scale experience design (and accessibility patterns) correct. In this session we'll look at how design systems and their governance structures can be intentionally constructed as a center of excellence and focal point for accessibility maturity for organizations of any scale.
Target audience: developers, UX designers, product managers, business analysts, QA testers, engineering managers
