tim.js meetup #98

Hello JavaScripters,

We hope to see you for a new tim.js edition, this time at rankingCoach. Here's the agenda:

***

1. Dependency Management in Modern Web Projects
-- Adrian Faciu, Principal Engineer @ WeVideo

When you kick off a new project, dependency management is often the last thing on your mind. But as your codebase grows, you’ll start bumping into issues like conflicting versions, missing dependencies, and security concerns. If you decide to move into a workspace or monorepo setup, dependency management becomes even more complex.

Let’s explore some practical solutions and strategies for tackling these challenges, along with some popular tools that can improve your workflow.

2. The code etymologist
-- Andrei Pfeiffer, Platform Engineer @ Smilecloud

In ancient times, knowledge was passed down through word of mouth, like an endless game of telephone where details changed with each retelling. Without a written record, information was often distorted or lost. This talk draws a parallel to software teams that work without documentation. Just like etymology traces the origins of words, documentation preserves history, accuracy, and meaning in code, ensuring that everyone shares a common understanding.
