Rescuing legacy codebases with GraphQL and Rails

Very little is talked about GraphQL outside of the realm of front-end applications. Netto will share the story of how he leveraged GraphQL as an integration layer to build the next generation of the IFTTT product. IFTTT now uses GraphQL to power 5 different apps and serve over 10k queries per minute.

Bootstrapping, Prediction, Adaptation

Dan will talk about bootstrapping a seven-figure business alone and without investment, predicting the future course of your industry, and proactively adapting or reinventing your business. He will also discuss the benefits of competition to innovation and development, and explain how failures can become opportunities for discovery.
