Building a plugin like a pro it’s not only about code, it’s also about how you do that. I talked about the workflow, how WordPress works and how I build plugins. I also discussed some mistakes I made along the way. Doing something in a hurry is never a good thing.
There are tons of awesome new tools produced by terrific companies and developers that get everyone excited about using their fancy new tool-set by essentially starting from scratch. This talk is not about using a fancy new framework and rewriting your entire application. As a developer who has spent the majority of his time working in legacy codebases where the first commits pre-date jQuery, it's hard not to get wrapped up in the "I want to rewrite the whole app with X" mentality. But in reality, time constraints or just the legacy framework you're building your apps with doesn't allow for that. Or, more realistically, it just needs to work and there is no business case for a rewrite. What this talk will show you how you can still enhance your front-end operation within an existing legacy codebase. I'll talk about first steps to modularizing a monolith, or simply taking a portion of a legacy app and modernizing it with a new toolset. This not only helps you as a developer to succeed with new tools, it makes you feel like you aren't being left behind in the modern world. Whether you're using legacy jQuery, or just some crammed together JavaScript, you shouldn't lose the ability to modernize your application, just because you can't buy in 100% to a modern framework.
Tips on how to break apart your monolithic JavaScript
Building an extension method to modularize your application
Creating backcompat methods for legacy code modernization
Using a modern framework for a portion of your app, and integrating that with your existing code.
Other considerations (minification, module loaders, tests, etc)
Examples used in the talk: https://github.com/odino/react-native-codemotion
Ever since it launched, RN has gained lots of interest since it opens a new door to web developers: mobile development, with the added of bonus of being able to re-use a substantial chunk of code for both ios and android.
Follow me on this step by step tutorial on how to build a simple mobile app with the latest version of React Native, understanding the concepts behind it, the differences between React and its native version and seeing how you can debug a native app directly in your browser.
Composer at Scale, Release and Dependency ManagementJoe Ferguson
Â
Having one application to support is easy enough, but what if you have a CMS, an API, a design tool, and a core library that each other tool also needs to consume? Where do you even begin juggling the release management and cycle of so many interconnected and interdependent packages? Learn how a small team manages a large CMS project and utilizes real-world best practices of Git, CI/CD, and old fashion planning to bring a solid platform to thousands of editors and millions of viewers.
DevQA: make your testers happier with Groovy, Spock and Geb (Greach 2014)Alvaro Sanchez-Mariscal
Â
Writing functional tests using Geb in a Grails application is fine for a development team. But when you have QA automation engineers, giving them access to the Grails app might not be the best solution (specially when they belong to a different team).
So the same way DevOps allow developers and sysadmins collaborate together, let’s talk about DevQA, and make them happy using a framework stack powered by Groovy.
Besides above considerations, in this talk I will show a live example on how to setup an independent project for functional tests using Gradle, Groovy, Spock and Geb.
Put an end to regression with codeception testingJoe Ferguson
Â
Ever kill a bug only to have it resurface later? How about that last intermittent bug you had to trace down? Looking forward to fixing it again when it pops back up?
If you hate reanimated bugs then this session is for you. In this session, we will discuss the why and the how of building regression testing into your tests using the Codeception testing framework.
Join me, let's hunt some zombie bugs. (Weapons not required)

Midwest PHP 2017 DevOps For Small teamJoe Ferguson
Â
DevOps is a large part of a company of any size. In the 9+ years that I have been a professional developer I have always taken an interest in DevOps and have been the "server person" for most of the teams I have been a part of. I would like to teach others how easy it is to implement modern tools to make their everyday development and development processes better. I will cover a range of topics from "Stop using WAMP/MAMP and start using Vagrant", "version control isn't renaming files", "Automate common tasks with shell scripts / command line PHP apps" and "From Vagrant to Production".

Experiences building apps with React Native @DomCode 2016Adrian Philipp
Â
React Native is all about combining great user experience on native platforms with the developer experience of React on the web. Since it’s start 1.5 years ago, React Native continuously enjoys a tremendous traction. In 2015 React got popular, I believe 2017 will be the year of React Native. I followed the development since the start and now built several React Native apps. During my talk I like to introduce the library, show useful tooling and give practical advice for building React Native apps.
GR8Conf 2015 - Spring Boot and Groovy. What more do you need?Iván LĂłpez MartĂn
Â
Spring Boot allows the creation of Spring Framework based applications in a quick and easy way without any XML configuration. It does not generate code, but provides useful defaults and an opinionated approach to the configuration but it quickly gets out of the way when we want to change and override the configuration. As if this wasn't enough we can also create production-ready applications with features such as metrics, health checks and externalized configuration.
If you add Groovy you have the perfect combination to speed up your development and have fun while developing.
In this talk you will see introductory examples of Spring Boot, the creation of a small RESTful API, the usage of Websockets, some of the Spring Boot CLI goodness... and many more examples!
Over time, the software industry has come up with many ways to deliver code. Why is it so important to be in production as much as possible? What advantages and disadvantages do we have in rapid releases? Let’s talk about how to be faster, safer, and with better quality.
Introduction to Continuous integration and the differences with continuous delivery and deployment. It shows the main benefits you should expect by incorporating CI practices to your project and how to do it with Drone.

What exactly is HTML5 and why is it such a big deal? Will it make a big difference to your business, and is it worth the investment?
HTML5 gives your website new interactive capabilities that allow your visitors to engage with you like never before. Instead of constant page reloads, cumbersome, slow scripts and crash-causing plugins on your site, your website will flow with the technological efficiency of HTML5 and your brand will look much more professional because of it.
Everything That You Need To Know About HTML5KaneJordy1
Â
Undoubtedly, we have seen a substantial evolution of websites from their inception utilizing HTML and CSS. During those times, developers had to be contented with plain text and images on their sites and had to rely on third-party plugins such as Flash to add interactivity.
Owing to its new and powerful features for both developers and end-users, it is already used to code websites around the world.HTML5 is enabled by all-new modern desktops and mobile browsers, or for mobile app web development.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
Â
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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Â
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.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.
