The Web as a Creative Medium
Have a fireside chat with Greg Tatum about how to use the web as a creative medium. Learn how to quickly iterate on ideas in a flexible space, and instantly share your work with the globe at large. Explore the underlying technologies like 2d canvas, WebGL, and SVG, plus the frameworks that make it easy to be productive.

React and Redux from the Trenches
Lessons learned from working with React and Redux for the past 6 months to create an asynchronous, isomorphic, server-side rendered SPA complete with RESTful API powered by Python/Django.
Essentially: dos, don'ts, gotchas, best practice approaches, red herrings, false starts, and evolving practices.
Technologies include webpack, Express, react-router, redux-simple-router, CSS Modules, react-cookie, Mocha/Chai, Babel, ES2015/2016, Immutable, cheerio, etc.
