Tom Pressenwurter introduces Redwood.js, a full stack app framework for building GraphQL APIs easily and maintainably. He demonstrates a Redwood.js application with a React-based front end and a Node.js API. Redwood.js offers a simplified folder structure and schema for organizing the application. It provides easy data manipulation and CRUD operations through GraphQL functions. Redwood.js allows for easy implementation of new queries and directives, including authentication and limiting access to data. It is a stable and production-ready framework that integrates well with other front-end technologies.

We all love GraphQL, but it can be daunting to get a server up and running and keep your code organized, maintainable, and testable over the long term. No more! Come watch as I go from an empty directory to a fully fledged GraphQL API in minutes flat. Plus, see how easy it is to use and create directives to clean up your code even more. You're gonna love GraphQL even more once you make things Redwood Easy! <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1"> </a>

Redwood JS is a full stack React app framework that simplifies development and testing. It uses a directory structure to organize code and provides easy data fetching with cells. Redwood eliminates boilerplate and integrates Jest and Storybook. It supports pre-rendering and provides solutions for authentication and deployment. Redwood is a cross-client framework that allows for building web and mobile applications without duplicating work.

Tired of rebuilding your React-based web framework from scratch for every new project? You're in luck! RedwoodJS is a full-stack web application framework (think Rails but for JS/TS devs) based on React, Apollo GraphQL, and Prisma 2. We do the heavy integration work so you don't have to. We also beautifully integrate Jest and Storybook, and offer built-in solutions for declarative data fetching, authentication, pre-rendering, logging, a11y, and tons more. Deploy to Netlify, Vercel, or go oldschool on AWS or bare metal. In this talk you'll learn about the RedwoodJS architecture, see core features in action, and walk away with a sense of wonder and awe in your heart.

The Workshop covered setting up Redwood SDK, Tailwind CSS, and database efficiency. It emphasized database structure, migration, and DurableObjects for modularity. The configuration included database seeding, routing, and client form creation. Client-side updates, server interaction, and handling errors were highlighted. Features like dynamic URLs, to-do item editing, and deletion were discussed. CloudFlare deployment, project interaction, and additional features like real-time support and task scheduling were mentioned.

This workshop will guide you through building a modern full-stack web application using RedwoodSDK and React Server Components. As a frontend developer, you'll learn how to leverage the latest React patterns to approach full-stack development with confidence. The workshop covers building server-rendered components, working with databases, implementing authentication, and deploying a real-world application. RedwoodSDK simplifies the transition from frontend to full-stack development, giving you the tools to create performant, modern web applications.

Redwood is a full stack web app framework built with React, GraphQL, and Prisma. It prioritizes conventions and maintainability, and collaborates closely with the React team. Redwood offers full-stack features, including real-time functionality without WebSockets. The Bighorn Epoch is a new phase in Redwood's roadmap. Redwood is excited about the possibilities of React Server Components and wants to collaborate with the community.

Redwood, an open source full-stack app framework, has gone all-in on React and React Server Components. Why? Despite RSC’s early stage and complex implementation, Redwood is uniquely positioned to capitalize on RSC capabilities, enabling exciting new features, possibilities, and DX.

This Talk discusses the challenges of building full stack applications and introduces Redwood.js as a solution. It emphasizes the importance of design-driven workflows and the use of Redwood Cells to handle state and simplify complex tasks. The Talk also highlights the seamless integration between the front end and back end using mock data and the optimization of workflow for performant teams. It concludes with a mention of Redwood's authentication features and the importance of community and collaboration.

I’m going to show you something you haven’t seen before — a simple, integrated workflow made possible by React, RedwoodJS, and Storybook. We’ll start from scratch, generate code for components, design and mock state, then finish with a secure API and CRUD UI. Sounds hard? It was. But not anymore! 🤯 You’ll learn how to bridge existing development gaps between stateful designs, data fetching, and your API using Redwood Cell components — a one-stop-React-shop for fetch, state, mocks, and design. Teams can move faster. Solo devs can iterate more quickly. And there are secondary benefits from documentation to security to accessibility, which add up to improving long-term maintainability at scale. Get ready to be inspired by what you’ll be able to build!
