Agenda

17:30
Responsive HTML5 games on tiny microcontrollersby István 'Flaki' Szmozsánszky (http://mobileera.rocks/schedule/#session-122), Mobile & web dev @ Mozilla / DPC Consulting

Many have discovered the power of the HTML5 canvas quite early on in the game-creator scene and started creating their own games playable across browsers, just as they did before with flash. Now we are taking this scene one bit further and I'll show you how to recreate some classic and modern titles in JavaScript in "full" 1-bit pixel-glory and play them on pocket-sized Arduino-based DIY gaming rigs.

18:00
Increase productivity with Design patterns, Libraries and Toolsby Viraj Tank (http://mobileera.rocks/schedule/#session-102), Mobile team lead @ Sociomantic Labs

As an Android developer, we have plenty of choices when it comes to Design patterns, Libraries and Tools. When it comes to making a selection, there is no right or wrong choice, it totally depends on the project requirements.
In this talk, you will be learning:

• MVP vs MVVM and which one to use.
• Different multithreading libraries and which one to use.
• Different boilerplate code reduction libraries and which one to use.
• Different Cache, Database and Network libraries and which one to use.
• Different Testing, Debugging and Monitoring tools and libraries and which one to use.

18:30
Pushing Performance To The Edgeby Vitaly Friedman (http://mobileera.rocks/schedule/#session-1), Editor-in-Chief @ Smashing Magazine

Performance matters. So how do we use fancy web technologies today to make sure our website are delivered fast to the client? How do we choose a web font loading strategy and how do we make use of HTTP/2 and service workers to show our pages faster on the screen?
In this talk, Vitaly Friedman will be speaking about the lessons learned from performance optimization of Smashing Magazine, highlighting the strategy and the front-end techniques used to bring the site “up to speed”. Beware: you won’t be able to unlearn what you learn in this session!
