Node.js Israel

Hi Node developers! We are celebrating the first birthday of our Node.js Israel community! Join us for a special Meetup with many surprises :) Agenda: 18:00 - Gathering, mingling, pizza and beers 18:30 - From monoliths to FaaS, what did we lose on the way? In the past 10 years, the way we’ve engineered our services has changed. We’ve moved from building large monoliths to building a multiple, smaller scoped microservices We’ve moved from building our own data centers and maintaining our own infrastructure to offloading that responsibility to external cloud providers. On the other hand, our products have evolved from a small national scale based services to a multi geo ‘as a service’ scale based services Looking back at this evolution, I ask myself - did we lose some of our engineering proficiency on the way? By Gilad Garon, Architect @ Autodesk 19:20 - Not Another Microservice Talk: The Nuts and Bolts of a Microservice-based Project OK, OK, you get Microservices! I am not going to preach about the benefits and problems with Microservice-based architecture. You can find hundreds of those talks online. What I am going to show is how we implemented a Microservice project. The nuts and bolts of creating a repo with all the microservices, the structure of the code of each microservice, and creating packages with the common code. It’s going to be a really boring talk, full of lots of tips we learned in blood in the last year of implementing this. So be prepared to be bored! And, hopefully, educated...

Hi Node developers! PLEASE UPDATE YOUR RSVP IF YOU CAN'T COME. Agenda: 18:00 - Gathering, mingling, pizza and beers 18:30 - Build your own Node.js Let’s compile v8 with libuv and create our own Node.js! We’re all using Node.js and seen a lot of how it works and how to use it, Node.js has developed so much over the years with amazing stuff as Async hooks, Worker threads and huge standard library. Let’s go back to some of the fundamentals and try to really understand what is Node.js. How does “setTimeout(cb, 1000)” goes from our JS code into c/c++ function that calls libuv and later goes back to our JS callback, let’s write our own “readFile” & “writeFile”, initialize our own global object (maybe even rename it?) and implement our own event loop. By Daniel Krom, Principal engineer @Palo Alto Networks 19: 20 - Build Your Own Transpiler We all use transpilers as part of our day to day work. For many, it's some sort of magic that converts our code from beautiful ES6/7/8/9(10, 11...) to older code that even the "slow" brother IE understands. Let's reveal the magic and live code our own transpiler from scratch.

Hi Node developers! PLEASE UPDATE YOUR RSVP IF YOU CAN'T COME. Agenda: 18:00 - Gathering, mingling, pizza and beers 18:30 - TBD 19:20 - Web Frameworks Implication on Serverless Cold Start Performance in NodeJS In the world of web applications, Web Frameworks (WF) existed for a very long time. Traditional WF existed in a world without the notion of microservices, let alone the notion of serverless. Many first-time serverless users use WF to ease the transition into the ecosystem, sometimes unaware of its effect on the performance. The following session focuses on potential cold start issues when using WF in the NodeJS ecosystem. By Efi Merdler-Kravitz.
