ES6 Modules & React with SystemJS
Jack Franklin, (http://jackfranklin.co.uk/) Developer at GoCardless (https://gocardless.com/?utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=brand%20PM&utm_source=google&utm_term=gocardless&gclid=CNClr9Xw9cQCFUHMtAodJ2AAIg)

Jack will build a sample application using jspm [jspm.io (http://jspm.io/)] and SystemJS, allowing us to structure our application using ES6 and the ES6 module syntax today. He will show you the development workflow and how jspm makes it easy to bundle your application up for production.

r3t & a11y : This is for everyone

Accessibility is often treated like a 'nice to have' or a feature, but it need not be that way. We're entering an era of custom and reusable web components where we can step away from using only what the browser vendors will give us and create our own encapsulated components to do and act the way we want them too, but we need to take a step back and ensure that our components can live happily on a platform that is accessed by 40% of the worlds population. React loves Accessibility and its not difficult to add, lets have a look how and why.thanks,

Fully functional: Central state is a great fit for React
Viktor Charypar (https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=165601733&authType=NAME_SEARCH&authToken=bKJ_&locale=en_US&trk=tyah&trkInfo=clickedVertical%3Amynetwork%2Cidx%3A1-1-1%2CtarId%3A1429285883083%2Ctas%3Aviktor) and Tiago Azevedo (https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=187387585&authType=NAME_SEARCH&authToken=09zT&locale=en_US&trk=tyah&trkInfo=clickedVertical%3Amynetwork%2Cidx%3A1-1-1%2CtarId%3A1429285934515%2Ctas%3Atiago), Red Badger (http://www.red-badger.com)

Viktor and Tiago will show an alternative architecture for React applications inspired by the ideas from Om. They will show how building applications with immutable central state makes basic things simple and hard things possible.

Once again you will be asked a couple of question when you RSVP yes for the meetup. If you provide this extra information you won't have to sign an NDA on the door- instead simply sign in with one of the ipads as instructed by the reception team. This will speed up everyone getting into the building on the evening.

(RSVPs will close 4 days before the meetup so this info can be given to Facebook so make sure you book your place with plenty of time)

Thank you to Facebook for hosting the event!

See you all then

Stu, Alex, Robbie and Amy
