This is how we engineer #10

We return to engineering topics in May.

Alex Szabó:
Install smarter with PNPM - how we shaved off 30m of our install times
Managing monorepos is always difficult. The economies of scale also come with the costs of maintaining the scaffolding that supports this scale. In this talk, we’ll talk about PNPM, a Node.js module management tool that uses smarter installation patterns to enable blazing-fast bootstraps... and more!

Botond Fekete:
Synchronizing backends and frontends - code generation to the rescue
Code generation has always been the bastard child of creating abstractions and business logic. In this presentation, we’ll show you how we are using it at Prezi to bridge the gap between backend APIs and frontend code to reduce repetitive manual labour and the increased error margin which comes with it.

Gergő Bihary:
Understand what your monorepo is telling you
Prezi uses a large monorepo to develop and deploy various frontends across our services. This has developed into a beast of a codebase where it’s hard to keep track of the “health” of our individual artifacts. In this talk, we’ll introduce you to an internal solution that helps developers keep track of their packages and maintain a healthy monorepo.

Just as every time all you need to do is join us via zoom:
