We’ve got two solid tech talks lined up and a fireside chat:

Cameron Presley, Engineering Leader & Microsoft MVP
**Learning Functional Programming Through Construction: First Principles**
This talk is a great introduction to functional programming where we build out the Mars Rover kata leveraging TypeScript and building out our understanding of immutable structures, functions, and composition.

Mariya Harizanova, Frontend Queens Co-Founder
**Animating Anything on the DOM with GSAP**
This talk will cover scroll-based animations (using ScrollTrigger, of course!), cool entrance effects with timelines and staggers, and even throw in some live demos. It will also touch on best practices for performance and accessibility.

**Leader Fireside Chat: Jason Abdo**

Everyone participating in the REFACTR.TECH conference, events and Discord/Slack community—including, but not limited to attendees, speakers, sponsors and volunteers at REFACTR.TECH, are required to agree to the following [code of conduct](). Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event.
