Abstract: Future JS features to look forward to

Every year since 2017 Javascript adds at least 5 new features/improvements to the language. I will talk about the process and challenges an idea has to go through to become a feature in the JS language specification. As well present a couple of features I am looking forward to using.

Abstract: Apollo & GraphQL: what we learned building a multi-platform chat app

Subscriptions, Fragments, Unions and other fancy things have to come together in unison when you build a realtime chat app. We had great days and we had terrible days, but we figured it out - there's that.
