Porting your app from .NET Framework to dot net core
Lachlan Barclay
Moving your full framework app to dot net core opens up a world of possibilities.. but it's also a daunting task if you have a large application. Let's talk about how to identify your dependencies and slowly move your application across, one class at a time, avoiding the "big bang" approach.

Create your Backend-For-Frontend with Next.js
Shuying Lin
@_wlfp
In this talk, I'll give a brief introduction to Next.js API Route, a new feature that allows developers to build API within Next.js. We'll go through some benefits brought by API Route when building a simple Back-end For Front-end along with a Next.js app, also compare API Route with other common Back-end For Front-end solutions to understand its pros and cons.

Testing is not dead
Lee Hawkins
@therockertester
I will explain what testing really is and why we can't automate everything. I'll also provide some tips for improving the testing skills of those not in specialized testing roles.

No-code platforms
Bec Martin
@coder_bec
No-code platforms have exploded in ubiquity and sophistication over the last couple of years. They range from simple landing page builders with forms to fully dynamic app platforms with complex workflow generators. Rather than replacing the developer skillset these platforms harness your skills in a different way and can assist developers and product managers with MVP creation, idea validation and more. This talk will be an overview of the no-code landscape, with some examples and tips to get started on building no-code applications.

Exploring Australia's IoT through a Fashion Menswear Brand
Vanessa Morgan
@Nessmorgan3
In 2016, I was in an innovation program where my group proposed a high tech IoT system for an Italian Fashion Brand. We wanted to immediately understand customer needs as they walked through the door. The Italian executives had two questions for us: isn't this an invasion of privacy and how do we do something no one has done? We will start with looking at how Australia is progressive in thought with IoT, dive into some IoT initiatives including ones in Victoria before going through the current blockers that stand between our current state and the future.

What is SwiftUI?
Sam Wright
@samywamy10
Developing Native iOS has never been easier with Apple's new declarative framework SwiftUI. In this talk we'll take a quick look at why SwiftUI makes it so easy to create apps, and how you can get started with building your app idea.

Reactive Services in Angular
Aliaksei Kuncevič
@kuncevic
This talk is about how handle component communication in Angular apps using Reactive Services approach. Also I will introduce the library called rx-service that simplify the implementation of Reactive Services and helps to make them more consistent.

TypeScript and GraphQL
Aaron Powell
@slace
When building with GraphQL you define the schema up front and this can be really handy go use when it comes to writing the queries, resolvers, etc., especially if it’s in TypeScript.

So, how do you go about doing the type generation? We’ll take a look at a tool that can generate you the TypeScript types, then implement our backend using them before looking at how they can plug into the front end with React Hooks.

We’ll cap off by learning how to model our storage platform effectively using its own types and combine them with the GraphQL schema types.
