"13 ways to run web applications on the Internet" Andrii ShumadaFwdays
So, we wrote our app. Using Node.js, React, or Angular. And what's next? How your masterpiece can be shown to the entire Internet, or at least your mom, client, or friends. Probably you should find a DevOps, that will launch it for us... But what if I tell you, how to do it on your own? At this talk I'll show you 13 ways, how to launch your app on the Internet, what is the difference between them, and which method you should choose in a particular situation, from simple to complex, from free to expensive and robust.
Laravel is a great framework to use for web applications but what if you need to do more? What if you need to process data that would take longer than an HTTP request would allow?
Come learn how to harness the power of the console in your Laravel applications to do various tasks such as caching data from 3rd party APIs, expire old content from S3 or other data store, and batch process huge data sets without users having to wait for results. You can even automate tasks such as backing up your remote databases before you run migrations with artisan commands.
We'll cover creating basic artisan console commands, adding options and passing input, setting up cron jobs and scheduling our console commands to run at specific times, and how you can utilize 3rd party APIs to create fun automated message processing for social media networks.
Microsoft has traditionally been a laggard in the JavaScript space, making such developers question whether their war cries were being heard aloud. Fortunately, the situation is rapidly improving since the release of Visual Studio Code. Code is a free, lightweight, cross-platform code editor which is sure to change your perception of Microsoft.
This presentation will demonstrate how to utilize popular JavaScript tooling within the editor. The focus will be placed on the first-class support for debuggers, linters, transpilers, and task runners.

One commit, one release. Continuously delivering a Symfony project.Javier López
For the last few months we've been implementing a Continuous Delivery pipeline for the redesign of Time Out. In this talk I will demonstrate a real life example of what our pipeline looks like, the different tools we've used to get it done (phing, github, jenkins, ansible, AWS S3, ...), and peculiarities for PHP and Symfony2 projects. Most importantly, I'll be looking at things we've struggled with along the way and the lessons we've learnt.

Why do we need another build tool when we already have Ant? By focusing on convention over configuration, Maven allows you to declaratively define how your project is built, which reduces a lot of the procedural code that you'd need to implement in every build file if you were using Ant. This, along with Maven's built-in management of repositories for project dependencies, allows you to streamline your build process. Ultimately Maven can reduce the amount of time that would otherwise be wasted hunting down jar files and fiddling with boilerplate build scripts.
This presentation covers Maven's core concepts. It introduces the Plugin architecture, and explain how the most popular plugins are used. It also covers the POM concept and how it relates to dependency tracking and repositories.

I have been an android developer for 5 years now. Beginning of this year I stepped out from my comfort-zone, and tried out React-Native.
After releasing 4 different kind of RN projects, I would like to share my experience and give you some tips so you won't feel like you are fighting for your life when using RN on Android or ios. So what is my "survival kit" contains? A lot of info on project structure and setup, libraries, tools for debugging, best-practices, fastlane, push notifications and much more.
Structure your Play application with the cake pattern (and test it)yann_s
A challenge during the development of an application is how to add new functions without compromising existing ones.
Using the Cake Pattern, the application can be structured into logical components, thus minimizing the coupling between them and controlling the effects of changes.
You will learn what this pattern is, and how to introduce it step by step in a Play Application. You will be shown how an application designed that way is easy to test, especially with the Play testing API.
Finally, the talk will describe the common pitfalls of the Cake Pattern and how to avoid them.

How do I write Testable Javascript - Presented at dev.Objective() June 16, 2016Gavin Pickin
Everyone who wasn't writing JavaScript, probably is now. Atwood's Law: any application that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually be written in JavaScript.
That's great, but how do we test it? In ColdFusion we have CFCs, most languages have classes... but JavaScript doesn't have classes (yet).
So how do I write unit tests, what units are there, and how do I make my code look like that? JavaScript is a flexible language, and with great flexibility comes great complexity and responsibility. Take your JavaScript spaghetti and make it unit testable.
Attendees should have some exposure to JavaScript, but this is for the Professional Newbie... who always needs to learn and adapt.
Plugins have evolved in the past year, and the new plugin architecture will be incorporated in all products in 2009. This session dives into the detail of the new plugins system, guides developers on the best techniques and approaches and explores how the architecture will evolve further.
Atlassian Speaker: Don Brown
Key Takeaways:
* In-depth look at plugins 2
* How-tos and code samples
Code testing and Continuous Integration are just the first step in a source code to production process. Combined with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Puppet the whole process can be automated, and tested!

Managing and Monitoring Application PerformanceSebastian Marek
Writing your application is one thing. Making the application to perform well is another. We usually forget there is somebody else on the other side of the screen, that becomes very frustrated and upset when he needs to wait until this one page finally loads. It requires a lot of experience to predict specific behaviour and to know what kind of things to avoid. And even with that there is so many different factors that can affect the end user experience. During this talk I will talk about tools and techniques you can use to measure and monitor your application performance.
PuppetConf 2016: The Challenges with Container Configuration – David Lutterko...Puppet
Here are the slides from David Lutterkort's PuppetConf 2016 presentation called The Challenges with Container Configuration. Watch the videos at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV86BgbREluVjwwt-9UL8u2Uy8xnzpIqa
Introducing containers into your infrastructure brings new capabilities, but also new challenges, in particular around configuration. This talk will take a look under the hood at some of those operational challenges including:
* The difference between runtime and build-time configuration, and the importance of relating the two together.
* Configuration drift, immutable mental models and mutable container file systems.
* Who configures the orchestrators?
* Emergent vs. model driven configuration.
In the process we will identify some common problems and talk about potential solutions.

Converting Your Dev Environment to a Docker Stack - php[world]Dana Luther
Heard a lot about docker but not sure where to start? Frustrated maintaining development VMs? In this presentation we will go over the simplest ways to convert your development environment over to a docker stack, including support for full acceptance testing with Selenium. We’ll then go over how to modify the stack to mimic your production/pre-production environment(s) as closely as possible, and demystify working with the containers in the stack.
My talk from DevOpsCon Berlin 2016.
Ansible is a radically simple and lightweight provisioning framework which makes your servers and applications easier to provision and deploy. By orchestrating your application deployments you gain benefits such as documentation as code, testability, continuous integration, version control, refactoring, automation and autonomy of your deployment routines, server and application configuration. Ansible uses a language that approaches plain English, uses SSH and has no agents to install on remote systems. It is the simplest way to automate and orchestrate application deployment, configuration management and continuous delivery.
In this tutorial you will be given an introduction to Ansible and learn how to provision Linux servers with a web-proxy, a database and some other packages. Furthermore we will automate zero downtime deployment of a Java application to a load balanced environment.
Scaling up development of a modular code baseRobert Munteanu
Microservices are quickly becoming one of the preferred deployment models in the software industry. Much has been said about the runtime impact of microservices, but less about how they impact the development process.
This talk will discuss the details of moving from a single monolithic codebase to multiple repositories in terms of the development process. We will present the impact of modularisation on source control, continous integration, code reviews, IDEs and public discussion on chat/email.
After this talk attendees will have a better understanding on the impact of the development process of modular development.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
