🗣️ Talks

➡️ Liana Gukasyan – Beyond the Features: Maintaining a Healthy Frontend
We love building new features, but what about the other side of frontend development? Keeping your codebase healthy, managing tech debt, and optimizing performance are just as important. How do you start deleting code, tracking the right metrics, and collaborating with other teams to keep things fast and clean?In this talk, I’ll share practical tips and stories from working on a long-standing website layered with years of web history and various technologies. If you're ready to dive into the essential work of maintaining a frontend, this one’s for you!

➡️ Andreas Møller – How We Built toddle.dev - a Visual Programming Platform
How we built toddle.dev a visual programming platform:
- Why build a visual programming platform?
- What were the biggest challenges when building toddle?
- What did toddle teach you about web development in general?

➡️ Daniel Phiri – Making Search Type Safe
We talk a lot about type safety for so many applications. Little attention is given to search -- ask a developer and one of the most ubiquitous features implemented is search. How can we make this better?

If you’ve asked or wondered how to make the search experiences you build add to web applications better in function, speed and accuracy then this talk is for you! We’ll dive a little deeper into search, tackling how Typescript helps out with an engaging demo to top it off.
