SEO AJAX Crawlability in a Responsive Publisher WorldEric Wu
With the emergence of heavy javascript / AJAX heavy frameworks and the growing popularity of things like AngularJS, Ember, Backbone.js, CanJS, and even JQuery; making sites and single page apps crawlable to search engines are becoming increasingly difficult. It doesn't have to be.
This presentation takes a look at some of the largest and trending publishers and some of the AJAX features they employ.
These are the slides from my talk "Your WebPerf Sucks" at HK CodeConf 2015 (http://hongkong.codeconf.io) at Science Park in Hong Kong, October 24th.
Web Performance is an important aspect of building for the web and this talk highlights different aspects of what is important and what can be done to improve web performance and build faster sites. While mentioning different aspects of possible improvements, the main focus lies on optimising the critical rendering path to get pages on the screen faster and what tools can help to do so.

RESS: An Evolution of Responsive Web DesignDave Olsen
Responsive web design has become an important tool for front-end developers as they develop mobile-optimized solutions for clients. Browser-detection has been an important tool for server-side developers for the same task for much longer. Unfortunately, both techniques have certain limitations. I’ll show how both front-end and server-side developers can take advantage of the new technique called RESS (Responsive Web Design with Server Side Components) that aims to be combine the best of both worlds for delivering mobile-optimized content.
Drupal Theme Development - DrupalCon Chicago 2011Ryan Price
This class is intended for people who know some HTML and CSS, and covers the fundamental principles of Drupal theming geared toward people who wish to take a static mockup of a site design and turn it into a Drupal theme. You will also learn about using base themes, grid-based layout and helper modules to streamline and customize your Drupal theme.
Trainer Ryan Price has built entertainment sites, social networks, and eCommerce sites for clients including Popular Science, Field and Stream and Outdoor Life magazines. With over 10 years of experience building sites with PHP and other technologies, Ryan began immersing himself in Drupal around 2006. Ryan often teaches and writes articles along with Mike Anello, and the duo is also known for producing the DrupalEasy Podcast with their host Andrew Riley.
Covers frameworks, navigation patterns, preprocessors, responsive images, responsive data tables, polyfills. Presentation at the Cleveland Web Standards Association, October 30, 2012.
This was from my presentation at CSS Dev Conf in Honolulu, HI on December 5th, 2012. This presentation covered the aspects of user experience in relation to responsive websites and how better navigation directly attributes to a better user experience. Examples of navigation patterns were presented and I also built a website to accompany this presentation: www.responsivenavigation.net
Cristiano Rastelli - Atomic Design, Design Systems and React. Cool, but... - ...Codemotion
The principles of Atomic Design have transformed (probably forever) the way we look at UI components and code modularization. Pattern Libraries and Design Systems – predominantly built in React – have become widespread across many companies. No doubts, these are cool tools and approaches, and we have all fallen in love with them. But... In this talk, I'll share not only the learnings but also all the "buts" that we have found in our exciting journey developing (in React, of course) a Design System for Badoo.
In 2006 Simon wrote a successful book about learning CSS. Building the web wasn’t easy back then, but CSS was pretty basic. Simon also used to talk about systems a lot, but didn’t have many answers. Fast-forward to 2014 and everything has changed; that CSS book is both useless and wrong, and systems inform much of what we build. This talk will look at how the landscape changed for front-end designers, and how we must think more holistically about the scope of our projects. With practical examples he’ll explore the tools, methodologies and systems that reenergised him and helped make sense of the whole darned mess.
There Are No “Buts” in Progressive Enhancement [Øredev 2015]Aaron Gustafson
Progressive enhancement sounds practical, but not for your current project, right? Good news: you’re wrong!
In this session, Aaron will debunk the myths that often preclude individuals and organizations from embracing progressive enhancement and demonstrate solid techniques for applying progressive enhancement in your work.
By the end of this session, you’ll walk away with
* a better sense of the devices people are using to access the Web,
* a framework for envisioning experience as a continuum, and
* a solid understanding of how to improve the accessibility and reach of your Web projects.
Come find out why progressive enhancement isn’t just for “content” sites (whatever those are).
In this session Simon will share his considerable experience of managing projects; from the initial client meetings to getting sign-off on designs to finally going live, and all that comes inbetween.
Dreamweaver CS6, jQuery, PhoneGap, mobile designDee Sadler
A session talk for #NAGW2012 on:
Mobile app, choices
Dreamweaver’s place
Creating Mobile Design (actual design, not code)
Other helpful Adobe tools to create HTML/CSS
jQuery Mobile in DW
PhoneGap Build in DW
In this session, Aaron Gustafson will explain the ins and outs of crafting rich Web experiences that adapt to the capabilities and peculiarities of our customers and their devices, while maintaining your sanity in the process.
You will learn:
* An understanding of the challenges (and possibilities) presented by the wide range of browsers and devices being used to access the web
* A fresh perspective on interface design, grounded in the progressive enhancement philosophy
* Ideas around how to tailor experiences based on device capabilities;
* Solid strategies for determining how common UI components can be re-imagined in an adaptive fashion
* A practical knowledge of how HTML, CSS, and JavaScript can be deployed in the service of adaptive user interfaces
Responsive web design has taken our industry by storm and with good reason: it helps us improve our reach with less effort. But incorporating responsive design is not the goal, meeting your user’s needs is. Responsive design is not an end in itself… it’s just the beginning.
Embracing the heterogenous nature of the web—the myriad web-enabled devices with vastly different dimensions, screen sizes, networks, and capabilities in use by countless individuals, each with their own special needs—allows you to craft experiences that will work anywhere at any time. It also helps you build robust systems that adapt in ways far beyond aesthetics. This talk will cover a number of considerations that you should be aware of, beyond screen size and pixel density, and provide examples of how to adapt your interfaces so they rise to meet your users’ needs.

Progressive Enhancement 2.0 (jQuery Conference SF Bay Area 2011)Nicholas Zakas
In the beginning, progressive enhancement was simple: HTML layered with CSS layered with JavaScript. That worked fine when there were two browsers, but in today's world of multiple devices and multiple browsers, it's time for a progressive enhancement reboot. At the core is the understanding that the web is not print - the same rules don't apply. As developers and consumers we've been fooled into thinking about print paradigms for too long. In this talk, you'll learn just how different the web is and how the evolution of progressive enhancement can lead to better user experiences as well as happier developers and users.
This presentation helps non-coders understand the mechanics behind a web application.
Use it to shorten the time to build your first web app or better communicate your development needs to a progammer.
Simplicity - develop modern web apps with tiny frameworks and toolsRui Carvalho
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, ...)

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
