The Computer Science of React
We'll have an in-depth overview of the important concepts behind reconciliation and React Fiber. Then, we'll explore how React uses this algorithm and go through a few magic words we hear a lot, like coroutines, continuations, generators, and algebraic effects—and see how they all relate to React.
Web Performance Meets Human Sciences
Website performance significantly impacts user experience, often leading to frustration and anger when pages are slow or unresponsive. Beyond psychological effects, poor performance can increase usage costs and modern websites require a nuanced approach to capture continuous user interactions.
This session explores behaviors like rage clicks and cursor thrashing, emphasizing metrics that reflect user emotions and overall satisfaction. We’ll discuss the complexities of performance measurement, highlighting the need to look beyond single metrics. Ideal for those interested in understanding the business impact of site performance and the biases affecting user perceptions.
A non-exhaustive outline includes:
- Cognitive biases
- Correlating frustration and business outcomes
- Delight and frustration
- Measuring emotion
- Rage, missed, and dead clicks
- Wild mouse
- Scrandom
- Backtracking
- Median lethal dose (LD50)
A Decade: React’s Rhapsody of Life
Join me in celebrating the decade-long journey of React—a framework that has revolutionized front-end development.
Despite all the initial skepticism around aspects like JSX, it became one of our favorite tools. We'll explore this and other "trouble in paradise” moments!
Looking ahead, we'll discuss ongoing efforts like the Activity component, optimistic state updates, and more advanced stuff, like the optimization compiler and the recent improvements to React Native's JS engine.
Let's embrace a decade of React and the endless possibilities it holds!
Speed at Scale: Optimizing The Largest CX Platform Out There
In a world with a wide variety of network connections, any user can have a slow experience, and apps that delight users on fast connections can be barely usable on slow ones.
In this session, I'll share my journey of gradually adapting how we deliver pages to better cater to our user's constraints on a platform with 15mi+ sessions per month—where simply rewriting everything from scratch is not an option.
With an eye on maintenance and scalability, we'll discuss legacy codebases, automation/code generation, polyfilling strategies, main thread offloading, and many other tips and tricks for large platforms targeting emerging markets.
Hydration, Islands, Streaming, Resumability… Oh My!
Our ecosystem can be overwhelming! First, we had the rise of SSR and SSG—and each had its own gigantic pile of frameworks and tools. Then partial hydration enabled us to hydrate only some of our components on the client, which we've seen in React Server Components.
But what about islands? Do they relate at all to Streaming SSR? Also, what is resumability, and why do I keep hearing about it? […] Oh, did anyone say rendering on the Edge?
Well… There are many approaches out there, and all of them argue that their philosophy is best. In this session, we’ll go over these architecture/rendering patterns, to help shed some light on how some are implemented and the concepts behind them.
Web Performance APIs That You (Probably) Never Knew Existed
Responsiveness to interaction is crucial for our apps, and you’ve likely heard about the fantastic tools we have to measure and optimize web performance. What many developers don't know is that there is a wide range of performance APIs native to the Web Platform itself.
In this talk, we’ll see how to leverage the power of some of them to reliably measure responsiveness and correctly identify culprits for bad experiences.
