Agenda:
18:00 - Gathering, mingling, pizza and beers
18:30 - API First
The API economy is growing rapidly, and companies are joining the fray in making APIs an integral part of their growth strategies. Tech giants like Apple and Google are gearing towards an API-centric future. The surfacing of new interconnected hardware, wearables, and soon driverless cars shows how vital APIs are in our lives.
A lot of companies start with building web or mobile applications, and only then as a side project, they build an API for third-party companies or for integration purposes. They see it then as two channels: one web or mobile channel and one API channel. The problem with this approach is that it results in an artificial API that wasn’t properly built and tested during design.
In this talk, we will see how can we enjoy from both worlds, develop great APIs, and accelerate our development (thanks to the open source community, and a little shift in our mind).

19:10 - Node ES Modules - something almost, but not quite entirely unlike CommonJS - By Gil Tayar, Senior Architect @ Applitools.
Node ES Modules (Gil Tayar):
CommonJS, along with the npm registry, has become the de-facto standard in Frontend and Node.js development today. But Native ES Modules are coming to Node.js and the browser.
In this talk I will describe these differences, the consequences of these differences, and how to start preparing for the new world of Native ES Modules.
Why is this talk important? Because Native ES Modules are coming. And everybody will be talking about them in 2019.
little bit about Gil:
30 years of experience have not dulled the fascination Gil Tayar has with software development. He has in the past co-founded WebCollage, survived the bubble collapse of 2000, and worked on various big cloudy projects at Wix.
Gil is a Node.js modules team member ( https://github.com/nodejs/modules)
