Frontend Tooling of the Past, Today and Tomorrow

Remember when HTML and CSS were enough? Those days are gone.

While the Web Platform dates back many years what lies ahead is a journey we're yet to experience. In this talk, we'll briefly revisit Web 1.0, explore Web 2.0, and trace the evolution of JavaScript tooling.

Learn about everything there is to know about modern front-end build systems. How is Vite different from Rspack? Can the Biome promise be finally fulfilled? Can you save hours of build time and developer sanity in 20 minutes?

We'll also explore the building blocks of the future Web: new tools, browsers, frameworks, and protocols. Looking at 5, 10 and even 20 years ahead, we will examine trends together and predict what the future of the web looks like.
