Details

For April, we have two speakers and we’re excited about them both and think you will be, too.

🎙️ Talk #1 Details

Ali Stump will be discussing why there is a growing need for better shared tooling across development teams and provide examples of some commonly useful tools to get started. They will share some of their experiences writing tooling and workflows as a part of the Design System team at Tesla and how smaller teams and startups can also start building shared libraries even with limited resources.

Basic knowledge of Git and NPM is recommended for this talk but I will provide resources after the talk for those interested in learning more.

⭐ Speaker #1 Details

Ali is a senior developer at Tesla working on their Design System. They are a self-taught programmer who wrote their first website in middle school and graduated in 2008 with a BFA in comic art.

🎙️ Talk #2 Details

In this talk we will learn about Custom Elements v1, the API for developing Web Components. Steve will talk about how to get started with Web Component development and demo how to streamline UI component development with TypeScript Decorators.
