React Focus: A Night on the JS Superpower
Details
React at Rangle.io - Tools and Practices with Seth Davenport
As a consultancy, Rangle.io kicks off new React-based client projects on a regular basis. The result? A developed set of tools and practices that work well for us and keep our projects moving along smoothly. These are codified and maintained in our seed repositories by our infrastructure team, and now, we’d like to share them with you. In this talk, Seth will present the repos and go into the various tooling and architectural choices we have found valuable.
Automatic UI Elements Using Redux with Abdella Ali
Styling HTML classes via CSS is how we’ve made apps beautiful for years. However, as more of the web moves to dynamic applications we find ourselves having to manually manage these classes and their styles in order to have the view correctly reflect the internal state of the application. Enter Redux, which gives us an easy way to reason about our app state and allows for buttons, spinners and forms to get updated automatically, without additional logic. This talk will cover a few different implementation strategies for this idea, with a focus on React naive, elaborating on the benefits of this approach with regard to harmonizing visual and internal app state.
