I'm Daisuke Kato, an open source developer. I've developed React libraries like Zest, Jota, and Valsio. Now, I'm working on a new React framework, Waku. It's a team project that started a year and a half ago. Recently, we added support for server functions. This talk is about server functions and React Server Components (RSC), which allows running React on a server. RSC includes server components and functions and can render components at build time. It leverages serialization provided by a React library. Server components are an extension that allows rendering on the server and merging with client components. Let's explore the implementation with code. RSC allows the use of server and client components. The server serializes the client component into the RST payload. A client reference acts like a URL and is used to retrieve the actual client component. Creating a client reference involves code transformation. Server functions allow the client component to call a function on the server. Server function and client component are both functions that need to be serializable. Creating server references has multiple ways. The framework transforms user code for different situations. Waku now supports server functions. Supporting server function is a challenging task, but we've done it. Thank you for your talk.

I'm Nadia, a developer experienced in performance, re-renders, and React. The React team released the React compiler, which eliminates the need for memoization. The compiler optimizes code by automatically memoizing components, props, and hook dependencies. It shows promise in managing changing references and improving performance. Real app testing and synthetic examples have been used to evaluate its effectiveness. The impact on initial load performance is minimal, but further investigation is needed for interactions performance. The React query library simplifies data fetching and caching. The compiler has limitations and may not catch every re-render, especially with external libraries. Enabling the compiler can improve performance but manual memorization is still necessary for optimal results. There are risks of overreliance and messy code, but the compiler can be used file by file or folder by folder with thorough testing. Practice makes incredible cats. Thank you, Nadia!

Setting up the system and separating concerns are important in software development. Modular construction and prefab units are a new trend that makes construction quicker and easier. Architectural complexity can lead to a drop in productivity and an increase in defects. Measuring architectural complexity can help identify natural modules in the code. Best practices for avoiding architectural complexity include organizing code by business domain and using prop drilling. Atomic design and organizing a monorepo are recommended approaches for managing architectural complexity.

AI in front-end development empowers developers to take on more ambitious projects and innovate at a faster pace. Natural language is a new programming language that can be used for coding, learning, and automating complex tasks. However, it is important to remember that AI is a supplement to human capabilities, not a replacement. Developers need to evolve their skills and stay ahead of emerging technologies to work effectively with AI. The demand for AI engineers is high.

This talk introduces geckos.io, a real-time client-server communication library using UDP and WebRTC. The speaker discusses the benefits of UDP for real-time multiplayer games and explains how geckos.io enables UDP connections between browsers and Node.js servers. The deployment process for geckos.io involves opening UDP ports and handling signaling through an HTTP request. The speaker demonstrates how geckos.io works with Docker and showcases the ability to host multiple servers on the same machine. Overall, this talk provides an overview of geckos.io and its applications in real-time communication.

My name is Aurora, a web developer from Norway. Today, I'll be teaching you how to elevate speed, interactivity, and user experience with React components. I'll be coding a project task manager and improving it using Next.js, Prisma, Azure SQL, and Tailwind CSS. We will review the code, starting with the important layout component. We will also learn how to improve navigation and data fetching, enhance visual stability and user experience, fix search functionality, and add category filters with loading states. Additionally, we will explore the use of React 19 hooks to enhance interactivity. Finally, we will optimize rendering and achieve improved Lighthouse scores for better performance. Overall, this Talk covers a range of techniques and tools to enhance React projects and deliver a better user experience.

Today's Talk focuses on software rewrites, specifically the transition from jQuery to React. The speaker shares their experience of rewriting a jQuery app to React, highlighting the benefits of the rewrite in terms of improved user experience and increased conversions. Approaches to software rewrites are discussed, including the page-by-page approach which allows for product innovation. The speaker emphasizes the importance of prioritizing rewrites or refactors for startups. The Talk concludes with insights on testing, server-side functionality, and the overall value of the rewrite.
