Talks:

"The story of Storybook" by Norbert de Langen
React Storybook is a UI development environment for your React components. With it, you can visualise different states of your UI components and develop them interactively.

"Keeping styles consistent" by Michał Koźmiński
Keeping track of consistent UI as codebase growths might be challenging. The talk will cover dealing with shared UI and how to prepare style guidelines. Comparing some of the popular solutions like react-storybook and react-styleguidist.

"Authentication, Permissions & Error Handling with GraphQL" by Nikolas Burk
GraphQL is a new and declarative way of fetching and updating data. It’s currently replacing REST as an API standard by making client-server communication a lot more efficient and enabling new developer workflows that allow for rapid product iterations.
