Topics:

• Introducción a React: qué es y porqué emerge

• Sintaxis JSXComponentes y la comunicación entre ellos

• State y Props

• Lifecycle

• Ejemplos prácticos de React

Aunque inicialmente fui forjado con Ruby y Python ahora disfruto desarrollando aplicaciones JavaScript. En la actualidad mi trabajo diario me permite desarrollar en profundidad React en producción y conocer más de cerca las virtudes y desgracias de esta librería. Twitter.

Talk Summary

In order to get hooked by TDD it sometimes seems too much effort to setup things, but that should not be the barrier. Along came Google Spreadsheets and I had a no-setup environment, at least for doing katas and showing of the magic of being rewarded with a red box switching to green once I implemented the right thing. I will tell you the story of how I tried to make TDD as simple as possible and how I ended up with Google Spreadsheets and also how this inspired me to build tddbin.com for use at our JSCodeRetreats. I believe it's the red-green cycle that got them hooked. I did it with students and also kids even a manager asked me "why does not everyone program like that?".
