The power of Adobe XD + Photoshop in Website design and Mockup
Thabiso Magwaza (@ njinji_t)
This talk will be about how a mockup tool such as Adobe XD coupled with Photoshop can be a powerful addition to one's web development workflow. I've found that developing a website becomes orders of magnitudes easier when a design and mockup of the site already exists. Adobe XD is easy to use and is extremly powerful espcially when coupled with adobe photoshop. In this talk, I'll demonstrate Adobe XD by building a quick mockup of a website's landing page to show the audience how quick and easy it is to get it done.
Google App Engine - How, What, Why and Why not

Deployment to GAE is pretty easy and there are lots of tutorials out there, but personally I've found them slightly opaque. I mean, it's easy enough to follow along, but what does it all mean? In this demonstration I will attempt to make GAE seem less magical and also give a little run down of some features I like, eg how you can manage multiple versions of multiple services, how error reporting works, a few shortcomings and a few comparisons to other google cloud products.
