Hey gang,

we're back the first week of September and have three great talks lined up for you.

CSS Houdini - from CSS Custom Properties to JavaScript Worklets and back - Serg Hospodarets @malyw (https://twitter.com/malyw)
Today CSS Custom Properties are supported in all the major browsers. Now it’s time to do the next step- to have an ability to register new Custom Properties from JavaScript and setup the browser how to work with them (e.g. real CSS polyfills). They should work with the same performance as the native CSS properties, being animatable and aligned with CSSOM.

Custom Properties can be used as a bridge between CSS and JavaScript. Houdini Task force introduces specs and JavaScript Worklets to expose the interaction with previously fully internal browser rendering mechanisms (during Paint, Layout, Composite stages). All this brings Front-End development to the next level, parts of which are already available for the developers.

Tools vs Frameworks - Jaume Tarradas
The differences between them, advantages, limitations, and what you can learn from using them.

Immutability for Functional Javascript - Maxence POUTORD @_maxpou (https://www.twitter.com/_maxpou)
you follow JavaScript trends, you may have already heard about Functional Programming. This old paradigm is coming back for a very good reason: it is expected to reduce bugs and help you sleep at night. We will focus on one of the pillars of Functional Programing: Immutability.

What are the benefits of Immutability? How to execute an immutable operation in plain JavaScript? How libraries such as Immutable.js and Mori work under the hood (immutable data structures)?

Approximate running times (subject to change)
6.30 - 7.00 - Grab a seat, have a chat and get comfortable
7.00 - 7.05 - Intro
7.05 - 7.30 - Talk #1
7.30 - 7.55 - Talk #2
7.55 - 8.10 - Break
8.10 - 8.35 - Talk #3

As ever, we have a limited capacity venue so we to set a cap on the number of RSVPs and will have a waitlist in operation.

Doors to the Intercom office will open at 6.30pm.
