JS DIY - Let’s Do It Ourselves

We love to use libraries and frameworks, we use it at our own projects and at our workplaces, but do we really understand how they work?

The best way to learn about it, is to Do It Yourself and build your own library or framework.

At this event we will try to implement and understand how React, Webpack, MobX and Express? Works.

Build your own React (Alon Valadji)

React is the most popular library nowadays, let’s try to dig in and discover together how it works.

Build your own MobX (Benjamin Gruenbaum)

MobX enable us to manage a reactive state that is agnostic to any framework or library. In this event we will try to understand how it was made possible and also implement a binding to React. .

Build your own Webpack (Dor Kleiman)

Webpack, the goto solution for bundling and transpiling your code, but what is going on under the hood? We will try to implement our own version of it..

Build your own Express (Daniel Krom)

If you ever wrote any Node.JS server you probably used Express, the 4th most downloaded package on npm with over 6.5 MILLION downloads a week.
Even though it's so popular we'll find out that it's quite small and simple.
Let's try to cover in few lines of code, how does Express work and build our own Express library.
~~
Daniel Krom, a Principal engineer at Palo Alto Networks.

Build your own Storybook (Avichay Eyal)

Everybody uses storybook. But as a developing web-components based project, you will find that storybook is good for React, and for everything else you have to write plugins. I had to write my own tool. Now it’s opensource and I will show you how Showroom came to life, testing components for production.
