Web development is the process of creating websites, applications and other online services. It involves a combination of coding languages such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript and others to create an interactive user experience. The goal of web development is to create a website or application that is fast, secure, and easy to use. Web developers must understand how to design, build and maintain websites while also considering the user experience and making sure the code is optimized for performance.

This Talk introduces the Epic Stack, a project starter and reference for modern web development. It emphasizes that the choice of tools is not as important as we think and that any tool can be fine. The Epic Stack aims to provide a limited set of services and common use cases, with a focus on adaptability and ease of swapping out tools. It incorporates technologies like Remix, React, Fly to I.O, Grafana, and Sentry. The Epic Web Dev offers free materials and workshops to gain a solid understanding of the Epic Stack.

The modern web would be different without rich client-side applications supported by powerful frameworks: React, Angular, Vue, Lit, and many others. These frameworks rely on client-side JavaScript, which is their core. However, there are other approaches to rendering. One of them (quite old, by the way) is server-side rendering entirely without JavaScript. Let's find out if this is a good idea and how Remix can help us with it?
Prerequisites- Good understanding of JavaScript or TypeScript- It would help to have experience with React, Redux, Node.js and writing FrontEnd and BackEnd applications- Preinstall Node.js, npm- We prefer to use VSCode, but also cloud IDEs such as codesandbox (other IDEs are also ok)

State management in React is a highly discussed topic with many libraries and solutions. Jotai is a new library based on atoms, which represent pieces of state. Atoms in Jotai are used to define state without holding values and can be used for global, semi-global, or local states. Jotai atoms are reusable definitions that are independent from React and can be used without React in an experimental library called Jotajsx.

Building modern web applications is riddled with complexity And that's only if you bother to deal with the problems
Tired of wiring up onSubmit to backend APIs and making sure your client-side cache stays up-to-date? Wouldn't it be cool to be able to use the global nature of CSS to your benefit, rather than find tools or conventions to avoid or work around it? And how would you like nested layouts with intelligent and performance optimized data management that just works™?
Remix solves some of these problems, and completely eliminates the rest. You don't even have to think about server cache management or global CSS namespace clashes. It's not that Remix has APIs to avoid these problems, they simply don't exist when you're using Remix. Oh, and you don't need that huge complex graphql client when you're using Remix. They've got you covered. Ready to build faster apps faster?
At the end of this workshop, you'll know how to:- Create Remix Routes- Style Remix applications- Load data in Remix loaders- Mutate data with forms and actions

Welcome to the talk, Art & Entropy, Introducing Chaos in Your Front-End. Chaos engineering is a practice invented by Netflix in 2011 to observe how a system reacts to intentional disturbance. Applying chaos engineering to the frontend is experimental but necessary, as a broken frontend can negatively impact the user experience. Intentional perturbations in the frontend can be induced through various areas such as HTTP requests with slow 3G network or unstable Wi-Fi. Tools like chaos frontend toolkits can be used to experiment with chaos engineering in the frontend and embrace breakage as part of the application's story.

Web development has evolved significantly over the past 25 years, with the introduction of JavaScript and PHP.

Modern web development involves selecting a UI library or framework, deploying the front-end to platforms like Vercel or CloudFlare, and using serverless providers for persistent data. ORMs and query builders like Prisma and Drizzle facilitate communication with the database. Companies should prioritize delivering products over custom solutions to avoid unnecessary devops issues.

Passwordless authentication may seem complex, but it is simple to add it to any app using the right tool. There are multiple alternatives that are much better than passwords to identify and authenticate your users - including SSO, SAML, OAuth, Magic Links, One-Time Passwords, and Authenticator Apps.
While addressing security aspects and avoiding common pitfalls, we will enhance a full-stack JS application (Node.js backend + React frontend) to authenticate users with OAuth (social login) and One Time Passwords (email), including:- User authentication - Managing user interactions, returning session / refresh JWTs- Session management and validation - Storing the session securely for subsequent client requests, validating / refreshing sessions- Basic Authorization - extracting and validating claims from the session token JWT and handling authorization in backend flows
At the end of the workshop, we will also touch other approaches of authentication implementation with Descope - using frontend or backend SDKs.

Separating Separation of Concerns
My concern is to accomplish my understanding of my concern. A to do app can have more than just managing tasks. Crosscutting concerns should be co-located. Separation of concerns is an effective technique for ordering thoughts. React is not slower than JS. React may be closer to a library with a concern of scheduling. Rerendering components too often is a problem in React. React is a state management library that helps in separating concerns and states, resulting in a more efficient and readable app. Proper separation of concerns, states, and components leads to smaller, faster, lighter, and more readable components.

Keep Calm and Deploy On: Creating Safer Releases with Feature Flags
Feature flags can be used to mitigate risk in software development by altering the visibility of features to end users. By using flags, you can protect against single points of failure and pivot to a fallback service in worst-case scenarios. Monitoring and managing complexity is crucial, and using feature flags allows for dynamic changes and adjusting values based on proven correctness. Operating in the unknown is inevitable in software development, so it's important to manage complexity and embrace learning. Collaboration is key in making feature failures less painful.

Software Containers are quickly becoming an essential tool in every developer's toolbelt. They make it easy to share, run, and scale code. In this talk you'll learn how to use Docker to write better, more sharable software. In this workshop Sr. Developer Advocate at Docker, Shy Ruparel, will walk you through getting started with Docker. He'll covers setting up Docker, running your first container, creating a basic web application with Python and Docker, and how to push the Docker Image to DockerHub. He'll share why you'd even want to use containers in the first place and how they enable a developer to write better, more shareable software.

Node.js has become an increasingly popular language to build and deploy backend APIs. In a world of legacy CMSs adopting decoupled implementations, plenty of frameworks have sprung up to classify themselves as "headless" CMSs, designed from the start to provide an easy way to personalize content models, administer permissions and authentication, and serve a content API quickly.
Strapi, one of the leaders in this space, has recently released their v4 version of the framework, and with Platform.sh it can be deployed alongside a number of frontends within the same project, giving a drastically simplified development experience working with decoupled sites. In this workshop, we'll deploy a Strapi demo application, which has been configured to serve a restaurant review site.
Piece piece you will add database services, tests, and frontends, all within the safety of isolated development environments. At the end, each user will have a functioning decoupled site, and some greater understanding of working with decoupled sites in production.

Let's explore how to improve web application performance by offloading tasks from the main thread to other threads. We need to ensure compatibility with all devices and users to avoid frustrating experiences. Web Workers and Web Assembly can help improve performance by offloading tasks, but there are trade-offs to consider. Converting existing codebases to WebAssembly can be done gradually, and it's important to measure performance before making the conversion.
