Especially in small companies, you're often expected to be the end-to-end developer and handle everything from the database to the user interface. This was easy enough in the old days when the UI was little more than a table-based-layout with some sliced graphics. But now with the latest technologies, the front end is becoming just as complex as the back end. In order to get the job done you need to rely more and more upon an ever growing, endless mountain of JavaScript libraries, plugins and boilerplates. Or maybe... you just need a front end developer.

Presented as a GrapeCity webinar on May 24, 2017, this presentation describes the need for front-end JavaScript frameworks in modern web development and compares features of the most popular frameworks. Click through the slides to find quick summaries of the most important talking points for each framework along with links to demos, an e-book, and a free download of the Wijmo JavaScript UI library. With front-end web frameworks now more popular than ever, there's never been a better time to start learning!

The volume of JavaScript used on the web is growing, yet a single, poorly written line of code has the potential to break an entire website, frustrating users and driving away potential customers. AKQA have been working over many years to find a set of steps to follow during development to ensure only the highest-quality code gets released. Join Den Odell, Head of Web Development at AKQA, as he presents the seven steps that will improve the quality of any JavaScript project, leaving code easier to manage and letting users browse without frustration.

Ruby on Rails 101 - Presentation Slides for a Five Day Introductory Course

You have learned for years how to do big enterprise applications with big enterprise frameworks. Sometimes it was good, but sometimes it was over-engineered, rarely fun. It changed a lot a few years ago with Asp.Net Mvc and with a lot of impulse of the community. But today, the web moves faster and faster, and people want tools that do the job in a simple way and that just works. Today we have these tools in .Net and they grow every day for our pleasure. Get an overview of why you should care about Simplicity and how you can build great web apps in a simpler way with small frameworks and tools "that just work" (with pieces of NancyFx, SimpleData, RavenDb, Nuget, jQuery, Markdown, Bootstrapper, ...) Slides of my #Web.Net conference 2012 in Milano cheers!

Simplicity - develop modern web apps with tiny frameworks and tools

Rui Carvalho

This presentation explores lessons learned from building a highly complex single page application that's used by 100's of automotive dealerships to finance and sell cars. We’ll walk through how to manage a pure client-side application with 1000’s of lines of custom JavaScript and review how Web API, Knockout, Durandal, RequireJS, KendoUI, and surprisingly little jQuery can join forces to make the browser sing. You’ll gain a clear understanding of when a single page app approach makes sense and learn how to pragmatically divide responsibilities between the client and server. This session will give you an appreciation for how far you can push ultra-responsive client-side rendering in the real-world.

Presented at WebVisions, Portland 2014 This talk isn’t about deciding if responsive web design is a good idea or worth pursuing. We’re assuming you’ve already made up your mind that it is. This is a session dedicated to helping you develop, and more importantly debug, RWD. Why? Because it’s not easy! The speaker will share nuts-and-bolts concepts helping audience members more safely navigate one of the most difficult things we tackle - building websites that respond to a world of device sizes. In this energetic talk attendees will see real-time demos and illustrative slides serving an audience of technically minded designers by reviewing practical topics such as: • Resources for pouring your pages into simulated device screen sizes forgoing expensive hardware purchases as long as possible • Reviewing reasons for setting up a web server on Win7 and OS X laptops for emulating production environments for quicker work iterations • Demonstrating better CSS through Sass showing cleaner looking @media rules offering more easily maintained RWD styles • Showing an experimental tool automatically mass-producing website screenshots of multiple sizes using NodeJS and PhantomJS

Javascript is the language used the most for developing a web app or a hybrid mobile app, mainly because it can be executed directly by browsers. Java instead, can’t be run directly in a browser. On the other hand we have the language TypeScript, which is an open-source language that adds compile time type checking to Javascript, similar to Java, with the goal to prevent bugs mainly in the large code base. It is not uncommon for developers to write code using more than one programming language over time. In this talk you will find out, how I survived adding Typescript/Javascript to the programming languages I work with, after a long experience of development with Java. Let’s go!

The microservices honeymoon is over. When starting a new project or revamping a legacy monolith, teams started looking for alternatives to microservices. The Modular Monolith, or 'Modulith', is an architecture that reaps the benefits of (vertical) functional decoupling without the high costs associated with separate deployments. This talk will delve into the advantages and challenges of this progressive architecture, beginning with exploring the concept of a 'module', its internal structure, public API, and inter-module communication patterns. Supported by spring-modulith, the talk provides practical guidance on addressing the main challenges of a Modultith Architecture: finding and guarding module boundaries, data decoupling, and integration module-testing. You should not miss this talk if you are a software architect or tech lead seeking practical, scalable solutions. About the author With two decades of experience, Victor is a Java Champion working as a trainer for top companies in Europe. Five thousands developers in 120 companies attended his workshops, so he gets to debate every week the challenges that various projects struggle with. In return, Victor summarizes key points from these workshops in conference talks and online meetups for the European Software Crafters, the world’s largest developer community around architecture, refactoring, and testing. Discover how Victor can help you on victorrentea.ro : company training catalog, consultancy and YouTube playlists.

Dubai, often portrayed as a shimmering oasis in the desert, faces its own set of challenges, including the occasional threat of flooding. Despite its reputation for opulence and modernity, the emirate is not immune to the forces of nature. In recent years, Dubai has experienced sporadic but significant floods, testing the resilience of its infrastructure and communities. Among the critical lifelines in this bustling metropolis is the Dubai International Airport, a bustling hub that connects the city to the world. This article explores the intersection of Dubai flood events and the resilience demonstrated by the Dubai International Airport in the face of such challenges.
