The Hitchiker's Guide to Event Driven Architectures

Julián Duque

Today's Talk introduced event-driven architectures with Node.js. The event loop in Node.js enables non-blocking interaction between components. The event emitter class is used to handle events synchronously. Redis and Apache Kafka are popular tools for event handling, with Kafka providing scalability and persistence. Kafka.js is a JavaScript library that supports transactions and compression. Server-sent events are used to send events to the client. A plugin and library are used to convert an event emitter to an async iterator. The client displays emojis and updates the vote count.

React can be used to create custom menus for e-readers, and the process involves creating an image and e-book with React and loading them onto the e-reader. Writing an EPUB e-book for e-readers involves converting an SVG file into a PNG image and writing the e-book in EPUB format using HTML, CSS, and images. EPUB generators like Pandoc and Dino simplify the process of generating EPUBs from markdown and running JavaScript on the desktop, respectively.
