March Livestream - Essential Live Reload, Node OpenTelemetry Simulator

Hi Everyone! We have a little bit of a late start to BrisJS 2022, but we're always happy to put on a show of enlightening JS themed amazement! Thanks to our amazing couple of speakers!

📹 Youtube Livestream of the Virtual Event:
If you RSVP on meetup you'll see the youtube link on this event page (on the right sidebar!), and you can subscribe to the BrisJS youtube channel (https://youtube.com/c/BrisJS/) to get the alert and link of the stream going live 👍

❓ Questions/voting and feedback will be gathered using Slido for Q&A:

I'd be ever so grateful for this wonderful community of ours to get their thinking caps on now and contribute a talk of any length for any of the upcoming meetup monthly events. Your talks keep BrisJS alive!

⏱ Live reload - What it is, why you need it and how to do it - Ashley Davis - 30m (@codecapers)
Live reloading your code - getting near instant feedback while you are coding - is a fundamental part of maintaining a rapid pace of development.
In this talk we'll look at the best ways to implement automatic live reload across your tech stack for JavaScript, including:

• Live reloading code in the backend and frontend;
• Using "watch mode" for live reload of your automated tests;
• Automatically synchronising code changes into a running Docker container and reloading it.

There's simply no part of your development and testing process that can't be improved by automatically reloading so you can easily test your code changes.
Join software craftsman and author Ashley Davis for a tour and demonstration of configuring live reload across your stack.

🔍 How I Accidentally Built a OpenTelemetry Simulator in NodeJS and what I learnt - Andrei Hawke - 30m (@AndreiHawke)
Andrei took on a Christmas 2021 Project to dive into OpenTelemetry, and like the title said, ended up with unexpectedly more! He'll help cover his experience and:

• How NodeJS OpenTelemetry Libraries Helped
• Demo of what was produced (visualised)
• Engineering Aspects of OpenTelemetry to consider
• Q&A

Lots of opportunity for Q&A through Slido too! Get your thinking caps on and see you on the night!
