The Path to Native TypeScript
Today's Talk discusses the integration of TypeScript in Node.js. The path to native TypeScript in Node.js is explored, including the history of user requests for native support. Implementing TypeScript in Node.js poses challenges due to differences in stability guarantees and tool compatibility. TypeStripping is a transpilation-focused implementation that removes non-JavaScript features, making it stable across TypeScript versions. The Amaro package, built on SWC, provides compatibility and speed for type stripping. Experimental Strip Types and Transform Types flags enable erasable TypeScript features. TypeScript has limitations such as namespace and enum support in JavaScript and code migration issues. TypeScript Import Types and Syntax Detection are ongoing developments. Ambiguity in syntax between JavaScript and TypeScript is addressed with an erasable syntax only flag. Future steps include bug fixing, performance improvements, and upcoming Node.js releases.

React Query - The Bad Parts
Top Content
React Query is a popular library with significant weekly downloads and positive user sentiment. It may have trade-offs like bundle size, but the actual size shipped is smaller. Bundle size optimization can be achieved by exporting only necessary features. React Query's declarative approach eliminates the need for custom data fetching solutions. It offers caching, request duplication, background updates, and more. RackQuery doesn't support normalized caching, but refetching after invalidation works fine. React's vision includes suspense architecture and server components. The documentation could be improved with a more structured flow. TensorStack Query can be a good choice for Next.js apps, but not necessary with mature frameworks. The 10 stack query and router concepts were discussed. Combining React Query with HTTP caching provides a robust caching solution.

Watch video: What’s With Micro Frontends
Micro-frontends break down a large frontend into smaller, independently deployable pieces. This approach improves scalability, team autonomy, and code maintenance. Two primary ways to implement micro-frontends are build time and run time. Module federation, introduced in Webpack 5, allows for dynamic real-time updates across teams. Challenges in implementing micro-frontends include getting type safety with TypeScript and testing at runtime. Module federation 2.0 introduced type extraction and manifest updates. Full site federation allows testing the whole app. Micro frontends involve trade-offs, so choose what benefits you the most.

Define the Relationship with Monorepos
Watch video: Define the Relationship with Monorepos
Monorepos are single repositories containing multiple distinct projects with well-defined relationships. Relationships in code are based on distance, where code in different files is the closest relationship. By importing code from one file to another, dependencies are established, allowing for changes in one file to immediately impact the other. This enables fast iteration and development. When we separate code into packages or APIs, it increases the distance between code pieces, making it slower to understand the impact of changes. However, when multiple projects are combined in a monorepo, the relationships between them are reduced, enabling faster development. Monorepos make relationships explicit and provide tools to understand their impact. To learn more, visit monorepo.tools or nx.dev for information on managing monorepos with NX.

Aligning Patterns Across Design and Development
I'm Jake, a developer advocate at Figma, and today I'll be discussing aligning patterns between design and development. Collaboration between designers and developers requires recognizing our different perspectives. The goal is to close the gap between design and development, but this is often aspirational. The optimal path between design and development is somewhere in between, depending on factors like friction or waves. By recognizing each other's areas of resistance, we can find ways to make collaboration more effective. Figma's Code Connect fills the gap between Figma component logic and code logic by allowing teams to publish code-based informed component code snippets. CodeConnect currently supports HTML, Web Components, Angular, Vue, React, SwiftUI, and Jetpack Compose, and seeks to support more languages.

How to Master Cursor for Rapid Development
Premium
I'll walk through some of the ways I set up Cursor to help speed up my full stack workflow. The main thing to check is indexing the code base. Cursor also looks at the get graph file relationships. Another important setting is large context, which allows absorbing larger files and multiple files of context in the prompt window. Iterating on lints helps find and fix errors faster. Web search tools and uploading your own docs are also available to enhance the prompt window. These are all preferences, including auto select, YOLO mode, and models. Rules are also crucial as they guide the model to understand your workflow. Implement best practice error handling and adjust rules as the models and system prompts change. MCPs like sequential thinking, Postgres SQL, and Puppeteer help refine thoughts and automate workflows. Creating a product requirements document in a .md file allows AI to ground itself in project information. The game was successfully implemented and all items were checked off. Debugging strategies involve adding debug logs to help identify issues. Use commit messages to provide clear documentation for changes.

React Compiler - The Missing Piece for Optimizing React Applications
Today's Talk introduces the React compiler and its optimizations in React 19. The compiler handles optimizations internally, allowing existing optimizations to coexist. React 19 also brings server components, enhanced hooks, improved reference handling, and asset loading optimization. The React compiler follows the same principles as a typical compiler, with a Babel plugin and ESLint plugin identifying optimizations. The compiler optimizes components by performing in-place updates and reducing unnecessary re-rendering. The React compiler playground helps understand the optimization process. Caching JSX and configuring the React compiler can further optimize specific components. The React compiler is compatible with React 18 and 17 with some configuration, but using React 19 is recommended. Connect with the speaker for more information and subscribe to their YouTube channel.

Dabbling With Deno — Tales From a Web Developer Playing With a New Toy
Thanks for a great talk. I'm Phil Hawksworth, head of developer relations at Deno. I'll be available for Q&A later. Connect with me on social media at philhawksworth. So he took Node and he split it, and he sorted it, and joined it, and Deno was born. But naming things is hard. I've been building for the web for 25 years. Across different places, I've observed that web developers tend to follow trends over the years. JavaScript has become ubiquitous, powering the web from the front end to the server and beyond. Node.js has played a significant role in bringing JavaScript into the mainstream, increasing its resilience. The natural evolution of JavaScript is exciting, with new tools emerging. Personally, I'm cautious about adopting new tools, but I stumbled upon Deno while building edge functions on Netlify. It is powered by Deno under the hood and resembles JavaScript. I was writing functions in JavaScript and TypeScript without realizing that Deno was powering them under the hood. I got excited about using a site generator called Loom, which led me to discover Deno. Installing Deno and running its commands got me started. Deno is an open source JavaScript, TypeScript, and WebAssembly runtime with secure defaults. It's built on V8, Rust, and Tokyo and offers a JavaScript runtime, TypeScript toolchain, package manager, and task runner. Deno is a tool that encompasses various functionalities, including testing, linting, formatting, benchmarking, and compiling. Its API is based on web standards, making it familiar to web developers. Enabling Deno in your IDE provides insights into your code and hinting across the Deno ecosystem. Deno package management allows you to import packages from the NPM or the node ecosystem to ease the transition. Managing dependencies and updating packages is simplified with Deno. Deno clean purges the cache, allowing gradual repopulation. Tasks in Deno are managed in Deno.json and can be run using the commands run or task. Deno's built-in test framework allows for running tests using the command denotest. Deno includes a built-in TypeScript and JavaScript toolchain, eliminating the need for additional configuration. Deno allows running TypeScript files without the need for compilation. It offers tools for type checking, generating type definitions, formatting code, and linting. Deno simplifies and unifies various tools, making it easier for teams to adopt a consistent toolset. Deno's security model and performance are robust. Explore examples, tutorials, the Deno Discord, Blue Sky updates, and a deep dive video to learn more about Deno. Thank you for your time!

Leveraging Developer Productivity Engineering Practices for Greater Impact as an IC
Premium
Hey, my name is Mikhail Levchenko. I've changed my job and became a full-time developer productivity engineer. Let me share a little story. Imagine being a wealthy trader in 15th century Europe. Delivering spices for profit was not an easy task. Middle East nations heavily taxed any traders. But the Portuguese sailed around Africa using the Mariner's Astrolabe. Fast forward, Gerardo Mercator invented a map perfectly suited for deep ocean navigation. The Dutch East India Company became the new king of the spice trade. Developer productivity is about building a cozy environment for developers, solving hard problems, and identifying process bottlenecks. It focuses on the whole development process as a product. By leveraging this perspective, you can drive change among developers and other roles. Observing developer processes as a product involves meeting stakeholders, formulating a vision, creating a model and metrics, finding productivity problems, and proposing solutions. The stakeholders include developers, CEOs, CTOs, engineering managers, and other roles involved in software development. The goal is to make everyone more productive, guided by the motto of happier developers building better software faster. There are three highlighted frameworks in this talk: DORA, DEVX, and Mertrix. DORA focuses on speed and reliability with metrics like acceleration frequency, lead time, failure rate, and recovery time. DEVX addresses the human factor with metrics related to feedback loops, cognitive load, and flow state. DX4 is a recent metric that combines DORA and DEVX, introducing proprietary metrics for top management. It includes a failure rate to encompass reliability and a percentage of time spent on new features. Engineer-developed metrics like the reliability metrics from Dora and the percentage of time spent on new features are valuable additions. Talking to top management about changes is made easier with a cool metric. Research concerning metrics, consult stakeholders, and read literature to improve understanding. Try prototypes before developing custom tools as a last resort. Confirm success with empirical metrics. Release managers often feel constantly interrupted and overwhelmed by the task of supervising a release. Sharing the role with the entire team proved to be ineffective, leading to forgotten procedures. Automation and streamlining of the release process improved satisfaction and reduced delayed releases. Make developer productivity part of company goals and culture code. Advocate for developers to top management. Drive change by starting small, experimenting, and using tools as a last resort. Find ways to make teammates more productive.

I'm Elian, the lead developer at React Bricks, and today I will talk about the weird web and how we as developers have the power to make it even weirder. We can use APIs like the Battery Status API to manipulate websites based on battery levels, but we should also be cautious about its potential for misuse. Another interesting API is WebHID, which allows interaction with hardware devices through the web browser. Tejas introduces WebMIDI and demonstrates how it can be used to control web applications using MIDI devices. The speakers emphasize the importance of embracing the fun and weirdness of web development and encourage experimentation. They also discuss the tolerance for failure and the joy of pushing the limits in building unconventional projects. Overall, the Talk highlights the potential for creativity and innovation in web development.

How to Code Images in React with SVG
Today's Talk is about coding images in React with SVGs. SVGs are powerful when combined with JavaScript and can be used to create interactive elements. Understanding SVG syntax and positioning is important, as SVG elements are limited to SVG-specific elements. The circle element in SVG can be styled and used to create shapes. The rectangle element is commonly used for charting and can be customized. The path element offers flexibility and can be built from multiple segments. Transformations and curves can be used to create complex shapes and animations. Bezier curves, both quadratic and cubic, are useful for bending lines and creating smooth transitions. Advanced features like drawing arcs are available in SVG. For more examples and use cases, visit svgtutorial.com.

Temporal: Modern Dates and Times in JavaScript
I'll speak today about the Temporal proposal, which adds modern date and time handling to JavaScript. Temporal is an API that'll be available in browsers soon and will add a built-in library for dates and times, avoiding the need for external libraries like Moment. It offers strong typing with different types for different data, such as calendar dates with or without time. Temporal objects are immutable and designed to work with JavaScript's internationalization facilities. It addresses deficiencies in the global Date object and introduces types like instant and plain types for accurate representation of time and dates across time zones. With the old Date, representing a date without a time can be problematic, especially in time zones where midnight is skipped due to daylight saving time. Temporal introduces types like PlainDate, PlainTime, PlainYearMonth, PlainMonthDay, and ZonedDateTime to accurately represent different scenarios. Additionally, there is a type called Duration for arithmetic operations and unit conversion. Now that I've introduced you to the cast of characters in Temporal, it's time to show how to accomplish a programming task. We'll start with an easy task: getting the current time as a timestamp in milliseconds using the instant type. To convert between Temporal types, you can either drop or add information. The toZonedDateTime method is used for conversion and requires adding a time zone and a time. Although Temporal objects are immutable, you can create new objects with replaced components using the with method. Migrating from the old Date object to Temporal offers a more reliable solution and avoids potential bugs. Check out the documentation for more details and enjoy using Temporal in your codebase!

Is React Really Dying?
Is React really dying? React is dead. Let's take a look at the numbers. Svelte is getting 1.5 million downloads per week. Angular is pulling 3.5. Probably not a competitor with React. React dwarfs everything with 25 million downloads a week. React is incredibly popular with 4 million users and developers. Despite some criticism, a survey shows that 71% of respondents liked React, while only 28% didn't. React's flexibility and options can be overwhelming for beginners. React's complexity has increased, causing confusion for beginners. Memory management, overcomplicated architecture, and innovation fatigue are common challenges in React. React 19 is delayed due to suspense issues. React server components are a favorite innovation. Qwik's hydration model is cool. Qwik is amazing, and it would be cool to see something like it for React. AI can help you get 80% there, but you still need an actual developer to tweak and clean up the code. Tab AI keeps your workflow going. React's popularity is undeniable. The momentum behind React is strong, and it's unlikely to fade away anytime soon.

Everything You Thought You Knew About React Functional Components Is Wrong
Thank you for coming to React Summit! I wanted to create clarity around React Hooks and provide tools for troubleshooting React issues. Functional components in React are different from class components in terms of their lifecycle. Understanding the creation and destruction of objects in JavaScript is crucial to comprehend the behavior of functional components. Creating functions and objects that are not used can lead to memory waste and system resource consumption. Storing references to variables can keep them in memory, so it's crucial to ensure there is a direct path from window to the variable. This talk discusses creating objects and storing them in React components using useState and useMemo. It emphasizes the importance of using useCallback in cases where a callback is going into a component with a large state tree to avoid unnecessary renders. The talk also explores different approaches to handling data retrieval and update in React components, highlighting the use of useRef as a solution to access and update data in server-side data sources. Overall, the talk provides insights and tools for troubleshooting issues in React functional components.

Hi folks, in this Talk we learn about React and Chrome DevTools. We explore the new AI Assistant panel in DevTools that helps with UI tweaking. React DevTools now supports Gemini AI model for error fixing. Extensibility is important and React DevTools has features like highlight updates and server components. We also learn about server logging in the browser console and toggling suspense fallbacks. Browser DevTools allow experimenting with local overrides and improving color contrast. Advanced features include overriding headers, network panel customization, and performance tooling. We also discuss Core Web Vitals, optimizing pages, and debugging UI with DevTools. There are fun tips for enhancing animations and logging workflow. The Talk ends with Q&A and sharing/removing features based on user feedback.

Sketching with Code: Integrating React and p5.js
Hello React Summit! Senior software engineer building educational experiences at NewZella. Passionate about helping people get involved with open source. Creative coding journey started on Neopets. Have a CodePen with examples in p5.js, svg.js, and CSS. Talk is about p5.js and React, building an application to generate a grid pattern. Incorporating user inputs into the creative process using p5.js and React. Art exhibit at the Wellcome Museum inspired by generative art. True shade tiles and the 10 print algorithm inspired the pattern in our example. p5.js is a JavaScript library for creative coding, accessible to different backgrounds. Order is important in p5.js. React is better at managing complex state. Use the p5.js React wrapper to simplify integration. Use p5.js in instance mode to avoid naming collisions. Instance mode is safer and helpful as the project grows. Use destructuring to get values from input. Lerp color function creates color gradients. Use random seed for consistent random numbers in animations. Struggling with making the Canvas mobile-friendly. Animating P5.js sketches without relying on CSS. Optimizing canvas elements. P5.js and WebGL for 3D rendering. Conclusion and appreciation.

Out Of Order Streaming (The Secret Powering Modern React)
I'm the second-best TypeScript YouTuber. I'm giving a talk on streaming in React and the benefits it brings to applications. Streaming allows for faster perceived loading times by sending partial HTML to the browser, rendering it and waiting for the rest to complete. Server-side loading can cause delays, but this can be improved by caching HTML on a CDN. Streaming HTML in a different order has been a challenge, but there are JavaScript solutions. Optimizing HTML streaming with Suspense and dynamic I.O. can further improve loading times. Using suspense in client-side rendering and addressing challenges with Next.js React model are interesting patterns. Caching can now be done at a more granular level, improving SEO and reducing load on the host server. Rendering on the server is not a big penalty compared to multiple API requests. Thank you all.

Let's Build Suspense 🥁
Hi, my name is Julian and I am super excited to be speaking at React Summit this year. Today, I will be talking about Suspense on the server and its importance in React server components. React server components allow us to differentiate between static and dynamic components, improving performance and user experience. Suspense improves performance by introducing streaming and out-of-order streaming. We can implement suspense on the server by creating a suspended object to store the suspended children and swapping out the loading state for the actual content using custom elements. Multiple suspense boundaries can be used to render individual loading states for different sections, improving the user experience.

React Query - The Bad Parts
Top Content
React Query is a popular library with significant weekly downloads and positive user sentiment. It may have trade-offs like bundle size, but the actual size shipped is smaller. Bundle size optimization can be achieved by exporting only necessary features. React Query's declarative approach eliminates the need for custom data fetching solutions. It offers caching, request duplication, background updates, and more. RackQuery doesn't support normalized caching, but refetching after invalidation works fine. React's vision includes suspense architecture and server components. The documentation could be improved with a more structured flow. TensorStack Query can be a good choice for Next.js apps, but not necessary with mature frameworks. The 10 stack query and router concepts were discussed. Combining React Query with HTTP caching provides a robust caching solution.
