Video: Figma to React With AI, Are We There Yet?

Today's Talk explores how AI can empower developers to write better React code and automate the process of converting Figma designs into code. It discusses the use of heuristics to convert Figma designs into working HTML code and the potential of AI in generating better CSS class names. The Talk also highlights the importance of generating code that follows team conventions and automating design and code updates. Finally, it emphasizes the benefits of using large language models to automate tasks and improve developer productivity.

This talk has been presented at React Advanced 2023, check out the latest edition of this React Conference.

Design Systems: Walking the Line Between Flexibility and Consistency
Top Content
The Talk discusses the balance between flexibility and consistency in design systems. It explores the API design of the ActionList component and the customization options it offers. The use of component-based APIs and composability is emphasized for flexibility and customization. The Talk also touches on the ActionMenu component and the concept of building for people. The Q&A session covers topics such as component inclusion in design systems, API complexity, and the decision between creating a custom design system or using a component library.

AI + UX: Product Design for Intelligent Experiences
AI design challenges include bias, safety, and security. Trust and transparency are important in AI. Design principles for AI include user control, fighting bias, and promoting good decision-making. AI can enable the design process and investors expect to see it included in products. AI empowers individuals to create and share ideas, but managing expectations is crucial.

Atomic Deployment for JS Hipsters
This Talk discusses atomic deployment for JavaScript and TypeScript, focusing on automated deployment processes, Git hooks, and using hard links to copy changes. The speaker demonstrates setting up a bare repository, configuring deployment variables, and using the post-receive hook to push changes to production. They also cover environment setup, branch configuration, and the build process. The Talk concludes with tips on real use cases, webhooks, and wrapping the deployment process.

Effective Performance Testing to your Server with Autocannon
Top Content
Tamar is an experienced code writer and architect with expertise in Node.js. Performance testing can be confusing, but understanding terms like throughput and the 99th percentile is crucial. The 99th percentile is important for making commitments and ensuring customer satisfaction. AutoCanon is a powerful tool for simulating requests and analyzing server performance. It can be installed globally or used as a library in Node.js. Autocannon is preferred over Gatling for performance testing and can be integrated with end-to-end tests in Cypress.

Build a Design System with React and Tailwind CSS
Top Content
This Talk discusses design systems and how to build one using React and Tailwind CSS. Tailwind CSS provides utility classes for building complex layouts without writing CSS rules. Custom colors can be added to the Tailwind CSS config file, and font styles and text sizes can be customized. The entire Tailwind CSS configuration can be customized to meet specific requirements. Base styles can be added to the config file itself using a plugin. Reusable components can be created with Tailwind CSS, allowing for easy customization of size and color.

Do your automated tests include a11y checks? This workshop will cover how to get started with jest-axe to detect code-based accessibility violations, and Lighthouse CI to validate the accessibility of fully rendered pages. No amount of automated tests can replace manual accessibility testing, but these checks will make sure that your manual testers aren't doing more work than they need to.

In this workshop, I cover not only what WebdriverIO can do, but also how you'll be using it day-to-day. I've built the exercises around real-world scenarios that demonstrate how you would actually set things up. It's not just "what to do," but specifically "how to get there." We'll cover the fundamentals of Automated UI testing so you can write maintainable, useful tests for your website and/or web app.

As a developer, you need to deliver fast, and you simply don't have the time to constantly think about security. Still, if something goes wrong it's your job to fix it, but security testing blocks your automation, creates bottlenecks and just delays releases...but it doesn't have to...

NeuraLegion's developer-first Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) scanner enables developers to detect, prioritise and remediate security issues EARLY, on every commit, with NO false positives/alerts, without slowing you down.

Join this workshop to learn different ways developers can access Nexploit & start scanning without leaving the terminal!

We will be going through the set up end-to-end, whilst setting up a pipeline, running security tests and looking at the results.

Table of contents:
- What developer-first DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) actually is and how it works
- See where and how a modern, accurate dev-first DAST fits in the CI/CD
- Integrate NeuraLegion's Nexploit scanner with GitHub Actions
- Understand how modern applications, APIs and authentication mechanisms can be tested
- Fork a repo, set up a pipeline, run security tests and look at the results

Rapid UI Development in React: Harnessing Custom Component Libraries & Design Systems
Workshop

In this workshop, we'll take a tour through the most effective approaches to building out scalable UI components that enhance developer productivity and happiness :-) This will involve a mix of hands-on exercises and presentations, covering the more advanced aspects of the popular styled-components library, including theming and implementing styled-system utilities via style props for rapid UI development, and culminating in how you can build up your own scalable custom component library.
We will focus on both the ideal scenario---where you work on a greenfield project---along with tactics to incrementally adopt a design system and modern approaches to styling in an existing legacy codebase with some tech debt (often the case!). By the end of the workshop, you should feel that you have an understanding of the tradeoffs between different approaches and feel confident to start implementing the options available to move towards using a design system based component library in the codebase you work on.
Prerequisites: - Familiarity with and experience working on large react codebases- A good understanding of common approaches to styling in React
