Lightweight and blazing fast web applications with Vue JS and the Hasura GraphQL engine
Learn how to build fast web applications with a Vue frontend and a backend running on the Hasura GraphQL engine. Hasura is a light-weight GraphQL engine that offers all the advantages of a serverless backend: it's fast, it offers real-time updates and it enables you to enjoy the full power of Postgres. We'll look at a sample application to see how the different parts work together and how you can take full advantage of the combination of these technologies.

19:20 - 19:50
Rene Pot
Building high performance native mobile apps with Titanium
A common misconception with cross platform tools like Titanium (or React Native) is that apps built using those technologies are less performant than native apps. And while this is often the case, the cause is rarely the technology, but how it is used. But how do you achieve high performance for both iOS and Android? This talk will dive into common pitfalls which slow down the app or make it feel sloppy, and obviously how to avoid them and structure your Titanium app so you can avoid this.

19:55: 20:15
Oktawia Kata
