Sanket Sahu
I found my love for computers at the age of 8 and haven’t looked back ever since. I built a bunch of products (builderX) and OSS (NativeBase) and lead a consulting company of 500+ folks. I am very fortunate to combine my two passions, design and code, into what I do for a living. I am Sanket, founder at GeekyAnts and still a developer at heart. Currently, I spend my days in my self designed caravan, learning what it’s like to live as a digital nomad and I can’t wait to share my stories with you!

WordPress-like Plugins, but for Next.js
Join me on my journey of creating the Next.js WordPress-like Plugin System, an experiment that enhances Next.js applications by allowing easy installation and customization of plugins for features like Google Analytics, Social Login, and E-commerce. I'll showcase the unique features of the file-based plugin system, such as persistent storage per plugin, registration of components, routes, and functions, and a cross-plugin event system. The talk also shares the story of how and why I solved this problem to make developers' lives easier. Check out the experiment at https://github.com/gluestack/next-wordpress-plugins.

Bringing Controversial Ideas to React
Join me in a thought-provoking discussion on Bringing Controversial Ideas to React.js, where we will explore some of the most debated topics in the React ecosystem. This talk delves into the concepts of mutability and observability in React and compares them to frameworks like Solid.js and Svelte. We will also discuss the debate on granular updates versus Reconciler and the potential of a plugin system to extend React applications, and the impact it could have on the React community. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of React's challenges and controversies compared to other frameworks and how the community is addressing them.
