(Easier) Interactive Data Visualization in React

Get ready for an annual deep dive into the latest trends in React and Web development. Learn from engineers behind the framework ecosystem and early adopters at the main React Conference in the UK.The concept of the event is both about covering all you need to catch up on in the React ecosystem, combined with deep technical exploration of the latest architectural trends, new feature adoption, and efficient ways to solve complex problems.Engage in discussion rooms, hallway track with experts, hands-on practical workshops, and tens of insightful talks. Engineers of any level are welcome but be prepared for hardcore.

Functional Programming (FP), a paradigm in which programs are made up of pure, stateless functions, is adored by many programmers for how easy it makes it to predict, test, and debug the behavior of the code we write. Although FP has an unfortunate reputation as an ivory-tower domain full of obscure jargon comprehensible only to those with PhDs in category theory, the core concepts are straightforward ideas all of us can understand, and even have fun learning!In this talk, we’ll create generative SVG art as a way to explore fundamental FP concepts such as recursion and function composition, and tackle the practical challenges of FP in the real world, such as dealing with the tricky parts like side effects and randomness which don’t fit into the safe, sterile world of pure functions. By the end of the talk we’ll not only have the key concepts &amp; techniques we need to start writing our own functional programs, we’ll have some pretty functional art to look at too!

If you’re building a dashboard, analytics platform, or any web app where you need to give your users insight into their data, you need beautiful, custom, interactive data visualizations in your React app. But building visualizations hand with a low-level library like D3 can be a huge headache, involving lots of wheel-reinventing. In this talk, we’ll see how data viz development can get so much easier thanks to tools like Plot, a high-level dataviz library for quick &amp; easy charting, and Observable, a reactive dataviz prototyping environment, both from the creator of D3. Through live coding examples we’ll explore how React refs let us delegate DOM manipulation for our data visualizations, and how Observable’s embedding functionality lets us easily repurpose community-built visualizations for our own data &amp; use cases. By the end of this talk we’ll know how to get a beautiful, customized, interactive data visualization into our apps with a fraction of the time &amp; effort! <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

In this workshop, through hands-on projects we'll learn how to use Observable, a browser-based reactive coding platform, to rapidly build insightful, interactive visualizations in JavaScript. After completing this workshop, you'll have the basic tools &amp; techniques you need to start using dataviz to better understand your code, your projects &amp; your users, and make better data-driven decisions as a developer. <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>
