How To Build Future-Proofed Applications

Change is the only constant, and it has been shaping the software industry for decades. During this period, numerous lessons have been learned on how to deal with it. Although most of them heavily depend on the context, there are a few universal rules ready for use:

1. Keep it Small
2. Keep it Simple
3. Keep it Elegant
4. Keep it Safe
5. Keep it Up-to-date

In this session we'll delve into these rules and how they can be applied to your software development life cycle. We'll go full circle from requirements to maintenance. Along the way we'll cover mindset, development process and making technical choices.

By the end of this session, you will have acquired new insights in enhancing the cost-efficiency of application development. So, no matter what your role in the development life cycle is, this session is for you.

From Waterfall To Agile—And Beyond

Software development has come a long way from the rigid structure of Waterfall to the flexibility of Agile. Along the way, numerous methodologies and frameworks have emerged, with Scrum currently leading the pack—though it faces increasing criticism. Is there a definitive way to effectively manage a software development project?

In this talk, we will delve into this pressing question. We'll analyze various approaches and distill the most effective elements from each. Key topics will include cost-efficiency, focal points, delivery cycles, and change policies. Through this exploration, we'll aim to uncover practical strategies that can be tailored to your organization's unique needs, helping you navigate the complex landscape of software development.

At the end of the session you've gained a deeper understanding of these approaches and discover how to create a more effective, customized approach to managing your software development projects.

Defy Architectural Uncertainty by Building Schrödinger's App

Can an application be a monolith and microservices at the same time? Spoiler alert: yes!

In this session, we will explore a TypeScript codebase that defies the traditional boundaries. Much like Schrödinger's famous thought experiment, the application exists in multiple states simultaneously during development, but it's true form is only revealed at the moment of deployment. We'll uncover tools that empower developers to dance between monoliths and microservices, embracing the fluidity of development.

Whether you're a seasoned developer, a curious architect, or simply excited about the future of software, this session is for you. So, buckle up as we dive into the unknown, question the status quo, and redefine the boundaries of what's possible in modern application development.
