Talk 1: Beyond the Spec: Cranking View Transitions up to 11 (Safely, Maybe) by Bramus Van Damme

Abstract: Ever wondered what happens when you push the View Transition API beyond its documented limits? This talk throws caution to the wind and explores the wild side of View Transitions, cranking them up to 11. We'll combine them with Scroll-Driven Animations, trigger them automatically with MutationObserver, and even resurrect classic Internet Explorer’s Page Transitions using this modern API. Prepare for unconventional use cases, unexpected results, and a healthy dose of experimentation as we venture beyond the spec. If you're a web developer who loves to tinker and push boundaries, this is the talk for you.

Bio: Bramus Van Damme is a web developer from Belgium. From the moment he discovered view-source at the age of 14 (way back in 1997), he fell in love with the web and has been tinkering with it ever since.

As a Chrome Developer Relations Engineer at Google, he spreads the word on CSS, UI, and DevTools. Before joining Google, Bramus worked as a freelance developer in various front- and backend roles. For seven years he also was a College Lecturer Web & Mobile, educating undergrad students all about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — in that order.

In his spare time Bramus likes to go Scuba Diving. In 2016 he became a certified PADI Master Scuba Diver, and in 2017 he became a professional dive leader after finishing his PADI Divemaster training (Certification #405966).

Talk 2: You?

Abstract: provide us one 😉

Bio: Coming soon

We look forward seeing you at our meetup!
