I want to deliver a presentation with tips and tricks on how to speak with clients/stakeholders with confidence. What to do to stress less, how to prepare, as well as do's and dont's during the meeting. How to complain when necessary, and still sound like a partner, not a whiner.
Learn how to present with confidence, keep your audience engaged, and avoid overwhelming them. This talk offers practical tips for clear, effective slides and confident live-coding, giving you a simple toolkit to deliver presentations that feel natural, focused, and memorable.
The exponential growth of AI tools has already changed the way people create music and experiment with sound. Professional musicians, composers and regular people already use these tools to express themselves. And how about programmers? Can we bring coding and engineering directly into the creative process with AI as our programming partner? This talk dives into algorithmic composition and sound design where LLMs generate live audio synthesis code, giving you direct control over how sound works at the fundamental level. We'll explore the power of programmatic music creation with LLMs and discover how this approach opens up endless experimentation possibilities and transforms live performance from playing pre-made tracks to creating entirely new sonic experiences on stage.
I'll talk about what I've learned from teaching other about programming, how it affected the way I look at my own learning and how it helped me be a better developer.
In that talk, we will dive deep into npm, pnpm and bun package managers. We will see all the strengths and weaknesses of each of them. We will see possible ways to migrate, and we will dive into the code and run some metrics
Testing React Native apps has always been a trade-off between speed and realism. Jest is fast, familiar, and excellent for unit tests, but it runs in Node.js and relies on mocks for native modules. End-to-end frameworks offer realism, but at the cost of complex setup, ongoing maintenance, and slower pipelines. Enter React Native Harness, a new testing framework that lets you run Jest-style tests directly on real devices and simulators, with full access to native modules and no mocks by default.
I will speak about Monday Vibe - AI app builder. What value it brings to customers. How this product works under the hood, the most important technical concepts. Challenges and problems we had during development.
If you are orchestrating microservices, use queues, webhooks, cron jobs, run periodic processes, distribute work or elect leader, call lambda functions, have background processes... you are most likely implementing a workflow in disguise. Explore the concept that nearly all non-trivial code can be viewed as a workflow. This talk introduces Temporal, an open-source workflow orchestration platform, which allows developers to write workflows as if their servers were running indefinitely. Examine Temporal's ability to facilitate workflows that span extended periods, from milliseconds to years, without compromising reliability. The presentation will highlight Temporal's built-in features for resiliency, automatic retries, and load balancing, which significantly reduce the complexity of distributed system development. I aim to demonstrate how Temporal's approach to workflow management can significantly enhance the reliability and scalability of distributed systems, while also addressing the practical considerations of its implementation. Examples and live coding in Node.js environment.
I will go over Javascript drawbacks and quirks with the most substantial impact, and explain where they started. These will include inherent security flaws of both the language and the ecosystem, syntax/runtime quirks that cause the most needless errors. Then I will present how entire companies started just to mitigate some of these flaws.
So you've heard of React Native, Flutter, maybe even SwiftUI — but what about Lynx.js, the new UI framework coming out of Bytedance (yep, the company behind TikTok)? Over the past few months, I've been diving into Lynx.js, building real apps with it, and learning where it shines… and where it still makes you want to scream into a pillow. In this talk, I'll share: • What Lynx.js actually is, and why Bytedance/TikTok are betting big on it • The developer experience (good, bad, and "wait, what just happened?") • How it handles cross-platform UI at massive scale • Lessons I learned as a newcomer — so you don't make the same mistakes Whether you're curious about the next wave of front-end frameworks, or just want to know what TikTok is running under the hood, you'll leave with a solid picture of Lynx.js and a few laughs along the way.
Have you created or used polymorphic React components? In this talk I'll share some insights from refactoring the polymorphic Box component from the Dropbox design system. I'll talk about what went wrong with the initial approach and what we ended up with.
In today's market, privacy is more than a legal requirement — it's a competitive advantage. Apps built with GDPR principles at their core are easier to sell, more attractive in due diligence, and build lasting trust with users and investors alike. This talk will show you how understanding Article 5 of the GDPR — the foundation of all data protection rules — can guide smarter design decisions and help your product stand out in crowded markets. You'll learn how "Privacy by Design" isn't just about compliance, but about creating technology that's ready for growth, audits, and global opportunities from day one.
