#3 JAMstack Wrocław: The One on Fat Thursday
Details
JAMstack Wrocław Meetup is back!
A lot has happened in the JAMstack ecosystem since our last gathering. Many tools matured, and new emerged. But what's more important: it's no longer a niche approach. We've seen it adopted by many individuals and companies of all sizes, including big enterprises. There's even a whole conference dedicated to JAMstack (https://jamstackconf.com/). It looks like a prime time for static site generators, serverless, logic at CDN edge, etc.
Let's explore the fascinating world of JAMstack and modern web technologies together. Join us on the 20th of February!

TALKS:
#1: "Fronted Performance Optimization Like It's 2020"
Jędrzej Bogacki
Full-Stack Developer at LiveChat, co-creator of KnowledgeBase.ai, eager traveller, taking first steps into a lifetime dad career.
No matter if you just migrated your old site to JAMstack, or you are a proud owner of a classic CMS website — you want it to be as swift as possible.
In his talk, Jędrek will dig deep into the frontend performance and give you actionable tips on detecting speed bottlenecks and making your site blazing-fast™.
#2: "Migrating From WordPress (with Love)"
Dawid Gaweł
JAMstack Wrocław Meetup co-organizer, making websites since 2005. Jazzhead.
Oh, dear WordPress. We love you. We hate you. You teach us ambivalence. And you'll be with us for a long time to come. But... for this particular project I'd like to switch to a static site generator.
In his live coding talk, Dawid will show us how to migrate from WordPress to SSG and not abandon the idea halfway through.
#3: "Gatsby Case Study: LiveChat Marketplace"
Jakub Sikora
Front-end Dev at LiveChat. Agile practitioner. Soundtracks collector.
"1.5 years ago at LiveChat, we migrated both our user-facing (https://www.livechatinc.com/marketplace/) and in-app Marketplace to Gatsby. Recently, it went through a redesign. We had a chance to rewrite it in something else, but it didn't even cross our minds: we fell in love with Gatsby. I'll show you the story behind the migration and why Gatsby turned out to be the perfect choice for our Marketplace."
