Creating Cross-platform Mobile Apps with Expo (RN)
Sebastião Bruno Kiafuka Fernando (@bruno_kiafuka)

In this talk, I’d like to present Expo CLI, which is a tool that allows developers to create cross-platform apps using expo.
Why expo?
Expo reduces the barrier to entry for new RN Devs and also helps users to quickly prototype their apps to users without having to submit this apps to the store.
I’d also be demoing a small app using expo, presenting also expo web.

How I Leveraged the JAMstack for Progressive Enhancement
Ire Aderinokun (@ireaderinokun)

Services like Puppeteer give us the power of headless browsers, which give us to power to do things like dynamically capture screenshots of web pages. This can be incredibly useful for creating static image fallbacks of content that would otherwise only be accessible with Javascript enabled.

In this talk, I’ll show how I used Puppeteer and Cloudinary to create what I call “live images” of the dynamic embed of CanIUse compatibility tables I created. Together we’ll create a tiny microservice that leverages these technologies and we’ll see how it all fits together to create the final product.
