This talk offers a gentle introduction to a new paradigm of durable workflows by walking the audience through a common use case: user onboarding email campaign. I’ll show how the DIY approaches tend to be slow and unreliable — or require significant investment of resources. Instead, by embracing background jobs you can deliver a great User Experience and stress-free ops. More and more companies favor short development cycles and lean approach to headcount. Being able to own entire business workflows end-to-end turns (formerly) front-end teams into empowered product teams.

In this talk, I'd love to inform and inspire the community to push the limitations of web development running Node.js inside the browser. I will cover how and why we developed WebContainers, what our roadblocks and limitations were and are, how we've worked with the community to make the technology better and what has already been enabled and built with WebContainers.
