Local-First: A Crazy New Way to Build Apps
Watch video: Local-First: A Crazy New Way to Build Apps
Hi everyone, my name is Anselm and today I'd like to tell you about LocalThirst, a crazy new way to build apps. The traditional technologies are not made for the advanced features that users expect. Local first infrastructure simplifies the app development stack by allowing app-specific parts without a complex stack. Building apps with CRDTs enable real-time multiplayer, cross-device sync, offline support, and auto-merging of conflicts. Public key cryptography simplifies sharing, complex permissions, and enables end-to-end encryption. Local first frameworks like Jazz combine permissions, local first user identity, and cryptography. Managing schema changes in local first apps can be challenging but can be managed with patterns and caution. Backend workers in Local First work the same way as front-end workers, and Jazz allows precise access control for server workers. Jazz enables easy offline-first and local-first user experiences and is used for various apps like Invoice Rater, Learn Anything, and Succulent. Start building local-first apps with Jazz at jazz.tools.

React Strict Dom: Cross-Platform React Based on the Web
Talk on cross-platform React using ReactStrict DOM to unify web and native React, standardizing for consistent UI development. Fragmentation challenges in React due to lack of standardized styling systems, impacting development efficiency and product consistency. Exploring unsuccessful cross-platform React approaches and the importance of minimizing migration costs. Enabling web developers to build native apps with React Native while enhancing it with web APIs for seamless code migration. Benefits of code sharing for cross-platform apps, AI integration for React Strict DOM, and the future vision for React Native as a web renderer. Unified styling in React Native, Tailwind integration, and UI best practices. Flexibility and readiness in React DOM, potential inclusion in React Foundations, and considerations for reversibility of decisions in React DOM.

Panelists introduced themselves and discussed React Server Components (RSCs), exploring usage in production and alternative frameworks. Challenges of adopting RSCs and benefits of universal data fetching were highlighted. The complexities of implementing RSCs were discussed, emphasizing the need for better integration. The potential of server components for composability and evolving architecture was explored. The React compiler's impact on performance optimization and component re-rendering was examined. Discussions included enhancing React with compiler features, evolving feature sets, and reimagining state management. Improvements in communication, community engagement, and dependency management within the React ecosystem were emphasized. Recommendations for managing dependencies, component performance, and audience appreciation were shared.
