This document discusses the challenges of professional front-end development. It notes the many factors that must be considered, such as performance, usability, accessibility and more. Front-end development is described as "the most hostile software development environment imaginable". The document advocates for recognizing front-end development as a profession that requires principles like availability, openness, richness and stability. It recommends approaches like semantic HTML, object-oriented CSS, and unobstructive JavaScript to implement these principles.

Basic concepts for python web developmentNexSoftsys
The programmers or coders still need to allow the look, feel and work of the python web development thoroughly to raise its popularity and profitability.
Over the past several years, as the role of the browser has grown, rich desktop-like apps have emerged built entirely in the browser. To enable this movement, a new generation of powerful JavaScript frameworks have emerged including EmberJS, AngularJS, BackboneJS, and React. In this 30 minute crash course on front end frameworks, Bloc co-founder and CTO Dave Paola will cover the history of front end web development, the recent emergence of these new Javascript frameworks, and go over some of the pros and cons for learning them.
We'll hear from Bloc co-founder and CTO Dave Paola and Bloc Developer Christian Schlensker. Prior to Bloc, Dave was a developer at Kontagent, has over 15 years of software development experience, and has founded numerous other companies. Christian comes to Bloc from Pinchit and TAG where he was a developer. Prior to that, Christian was also a graphic designer.
In our experience, beginners are often overwhelmed by buzz words like "HTML5," "JavaScript," and "Ruby." Without an experienced guide, they can spend months going down rabbit-holes drilling into specific languages, and emerge frustrated that they can't build a real website. Dave will start by helping you visualize the front end web development landscape.

https://speakerdeck.com/matenadasdi/frontend-automation-and-stability
We all know that after a certain amount of code complexity it’s impossible to maintain everything with simple manual processes. Frontend development is in a new era and we all have to focus on stability and scalability in our huge JavaScript architecture. I will present you our plans at Ustream to keep up with continuous feature development, our testing layers and solutions for workflow automation.
What are user experiences and how can we design them optimally? Why does UX matter and how does it interface with software development? And what does a unified design approach mean for front-end development at Semantico?
Some insights about how to get started architecting your Frontend applications and what technologies and tools are available in the market to make your life easier.

Wrangling Large Scale Frontend Web ApplicationsRyan Roemer
Web applications are massively shifting to the frontend, thanks to exciting new JavaScript / CSS technologies, expanding browser capabilities (visualizations, real-time apps, etc.) and faster perceived user experiences. However, client web applications can be a nightmare to maintain at scale, even for seasoned software architects and operations engineers. Deployment and production infrastructures are complex and rapidly changing. And, frontend JavaScript / CSS code ships to browsers worldwide, where errors and issues are notoriously difficult to systematically detect and diagnose.
In this talk, we will tackle the wild west of the frontend with pragmatic steps and seasoned advice from helping organizations from startups to Fortune 500 companies create some of the largest frontend web applications on the Internet. In particular, we will examine the many hard lessons gleaned from leading frontend application development and education for a team of 50+ engineers rearchitecting a top-five e-commerce site. Some of the topics we will cover include:
* Managing and building very large (500K+ line) frontend application / test code bases.
* Surviving production traffic and errors on the frontend and handling spikes like Black Friday / Cyber Monday for one of the highest traffic e-commerce websites in existence.
* How, where, and why your frontend application is likely to fail.
* Monitoring, logging, and debugging frontend web applications out in the wild.
* Automating checks, tests, and code introspection to protect your code in production.
* Creating an effective, fast, and engineer-friendly development-test-deployment frontend pipeline.
Whether your frontend application already supports millions of transactions a day or you are about to launch your first single-page-application, our aim is to prepare teams of all sizes for the most critical challenges and solutions facing modern frontend web applications.
A modern front end development workflow for Magnolia at AtlassianMagnolia
This talk was given by Nicolas Barbé, Magnolia, and William Paoli, Atlassian, at Magnolia Conference 2015 in Foster City, California.
The recommended development process for Magnolia is based on a Java stack and its ecosystem. It provides the best foundations to customize the back-end or create new content applications. However, implementing a new template or modifying an existing theme with standard front-end practices can be a challenging task.
In this talk, William and Nicolas describe how Atlassian, the creator of JIRA and Confluence, has built a modern front-end development workflow with Magnolia. How they decouple the back-end and front-end release process to deliver incremental changes to the user.
How to Build Front-End Web Apps that Scale - FutureJSPhil Leggetter
Developing large apps is difficult. Ensuring that code is consistent, well structured, tested, maintainable and has an architecture that encourages enhancement is essential. When it comes to large server-focused apps, solutions to this problem have been tried and tested. But, with the ongoing dramatic shift of functionality into the browser, how do you achieve this when building Front-End Web Apps?
In this talk we’ll cover the signs to watch out for as your HTML5 SPA grows and provide examples of some of the tooling types that can contribute-to - as well as ease - the growing pains. Finally, we’ll demonstrate how tooling can be used to support a set of conventions, practices and principles that enable a productive developer workflow where the first line of code is feature code, features can be developed in isolation, code conflicts are avoided by grouping assets by feature and features are composed into apps.
The demonstrations will use the BladeRunnerJS open source developer toolkit, but the concepts are widely applicable.
Growing to become one of the largest sites on the Internet comes with a unique set of problems. Learning how to and adopt, and doing so without losing sight of content creator's voice proves tricky. This talk details some of the frontend tools we've built and approaches we've taken to service our millions of users at scale.

The lessons I learned is that Open source quickly becomes the natural choice wherever commoditization is happening in the software stack. Thus we expect business-to-business open source, which is already a significant trend in recent history, to become an increasingly common form of open source collaboration. Companies who understand the ground rules of business-to-business open source will be better positioned to identify and take advantage of open source opportunities in the competitive spaces that they share with other companies.
So I will share why open strategy is import for the enterprise. And how to do contributions for the open source projects n today’s topic.

From there, a detailed deep-dive of TDD, BDD, CI, CD, DevOps, and DevOpsSec principles and practices ensues. Closes by identifying key DevOps tool automation ecosystems/pipelines, metrics, case studies, return on investment (ROI)/business cases, implementation roadmaps, adoption statistics, leadership insights, and a summary. Contains a lot of helpful data for constructing DevOps strategic business cases as well as tactical implementation strategies (while not ignoring essential elements such as microservices, containerization, and application security).
Two years ago at Devoxx UK we talked about DevOps, what it was, why it was important and how to get started. Boy, was it scary. Now we’re wiser. More battle-scarred. The large scale of the challenge for application writers exploiting cloud and DevOps is clearer, but so is the path forward. Understanding the DevOps approach is important, but equally you must understand specific deployment technologies, security issues, operational reliability, and how to drive organisational transformation. Whether creating simple applications or sophisticated microservice architectures many of the challenges are the same. Join us to learn how you can apply this within your team and company.

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.
