Code breaks, fix it faster

Crashes, slowdowns, regressions in prod. Seer by Sentry unifies traces, replays, errors, profiles to find root causes fast.

What happens when you turn your audience into a live, distributed load test?

We will kick off this session with a high-stakes, multiplayer "Whack-a-Mole" challenge played right from your phone. As you compete for the leaderboard, a live stream of concurrent data will be generated to showcase realtime web capabilities in action across devices.

After playing around, it is time to get serious by digging into the challenges, architecture and technologies used when building such a platform. Discover how helpful or distracting AI can be during this process.

Key takeaways include:

  • AI: The Good & The Glitchy!
  • The Stack: NextJS, Supabase and Playwright.
  • Realtime: No longer refreshing the page.
  • Automated Testing: Does it work every time?

Leave the theory behind and see how modern tools and a bit of trial and error handle the chaos of live user interaction.

Scaling Up with Remix and Micro Frontends
Top Content
This talk discusses the usage of Microfrontends in Remix and introduces the Tiny Frontend library. Kazoo, a used car buying platform, follows a domain-driven design approach and encountered issues with granular slicing. Tiny Frontend aims to solve the slicing problem and promotes type safety and compatibility of shared dependencies. The speaker demonstrates how Tiny Frontend works with server-side rendering and how Remix can consume and update components without redeploying the app. The talk also explores the usage of micro frontends and the future support for Webpack Module Federation in Remix.

Understanding React’s Fiber Architecture
Top Content
This Talk explores React's internal jargon, specifically fiber, which is an internal unit of work for rendering and committing. Fibers facilitate efficient updates to elements and play a crucial role in the reconciliation process. The work loop, complete work, and commit phase are essential steps in the rendering process. Understanding React's internals can help with optimizing code and pull request reviews. React 18 introduces the work loop sync and async functions for concurrent features and prioritization. Fiber brings benefits like async rendering and the ability to discard work-in-progress trees, improving user experience.

The testing pyramid - the canonical shape of tests that defined what types of tests we need to write to make sure the app works - is ... obsolete. In this presentation, Roman Sandler and Gleb Bahmutov argue what the testing shape works better for today's web applications.

Thinking Like an Architect
Top Content
In modern software development, architecture is more than just selecting the right tech stack; it involves decision-making, trade-offs, and considering the context of the business and organization. Understanding the problem space and focusing on users' needs are essential. Architectural flexibility is key, adapting the level of granularity and choosing between different approaches. Holistic thinking, long-term vision, and domain understanding are crucial for making better decisions. Effective communication, inclusion, and documentation are core skills for architects. Democratizing communication, prioritizing value, and embracing adaptive architectures are key to success.

React Testing Library is a great framework for React component tests because there are a lot of questions it answers for you, so you don’t need to worry about those questions. But that doesn’t mean testing is easy. There are still a lot of questions you have to figure out for yourself: How many component tests should you write vs end-to-end tests or lower-level unit tests? How can you test a certain line of code that is tricky to test? And what in the world are you supposed to do about that persistent act() warning?
In this three-hour workshop we’ll introduce React Testing Library along with a mental model for how to think about designing your component tests. This mental model will help you see how to test each bit of logic, whether or not to mock dependencies, and will help improve the design of your components. You’ll walk away with the tools, techniques, and principles you need to implement low-cost, high-value component tests.
Table of contents- The different kinds of React application tests, and where component tests fit in- A mental model for thinking about the inputs and outputs of the components you test- Options for selecting DOM elements to verify and interact with them- The value of mocks and why they shouldn’t be avoided- The challenges with asynchrony in RTL tests and how to handle them
Prerequisites- Familiarity with building applications with React- Basic experience writing automated tests with Jest or another unit testing framework- You do not need any experience with React Testing Library- Machine setup: Node LTS, Yarn

In this workshop, we discuss the merits of serverless architecture and how it can be applied to the AI space. We'll explore options around building serverless RAG applications for a more lambda-esque approach to AI. Next, we'll get hands on and build a sample CRUD app that allows you to store information and query it using an LLM with Workers AI, Vectorize, D1, and Cloudflare Workers.

Compared to unit testing, end-to-end testing aims to interact with your application just like a real user. And as we all know it can be pretty challenging. Especially when we talk about Mobile applications.
Tests rely on many conditions and are considered to be slow and flaky. On the other hand - end-to-end tests can give the greatest confidence that your app is working. And if done right - can become an amazing tool for boosting developer velocity.
Detox is a gray-box end-to-end testing framework for mobile apps. Developed by Wix to solve the problem of slowness and flakiness and used by React Native itself as its E2E testing tool.
Join me on this workshop to learn how to make your mobile end-to-end tests with Detox rock.
Prerequisites- iOS/Android: MacOS Catalina or newer- Android only: Linux- Install before the workshop
