The Modern JavaScript Server Stack
This hands-on workshop is a full day introductory level workshop. We’ll focus on server-side JavaScript tooling and techniques but we’ll also cover how everything comes together all the way up to the browser. As part of this tutorial, we’ll use Web Components for building an isomorphic app: the JavaScript code can run either on the browser or on the server. This tutorial will prepare you for building your own Web applications with modern tools and techniques with a focus on development and test automation.
We will cover these topics:
Node and NPM Automation with Grunt Server-side MVC with Express Isomorphic Apps Web components with React Package management with Bower and NPM Websockets Debugging Techniques Modularity with Browserify

React.js: Super-fast Single Page Web Applications
React.js is a view library from Facecbook for building performant user-interfaces in JavaScript. In this session, we'll explore React.js and understand why it's a great step forward for building complex UI's that run fast. We'll code up an example web application using React.js and step through the basics of using the library while discussing concepts like the virtual DOM and components.

High Performance JavaScript Web Apps
In this session, we'll dig deep into the performance aspects of JavaScript and the Web Browser. Single page web applications are becoming popular very quickly, and understanding the low-level and high-level aspects of the browser platform and JavaScript runtimes embedding in them are important. We'll cover topics such as browser pipe-lining, memory management, testing and measuring performance.
