18:50 - 19:40 Better performance for component-based web apps by
José Manuel Pérez

Abstract:
React, Vue.js and other component-based UI libraries are trendy these days. They improve developer ergonomics but can harm web performance with large bundles in SPAs. In this talk I will show how to use these libraries in combination with lazy-loading and code-splitting, so we get a performance boost on our sites.
