Frontend Conf program for those who do not have a time flywheel

    A third of all reports on the upcoming RIT ++ will be related to client development, and this is almost 40 pieces. Naturally, they will go in two parallel specialized streams, and the most applicable for a wide audience - in the main hall. And here the flywheel of time would come in handy, but it seems that instead it will be necessary to solve the serious problem of maximizing utility.

    Naturally, everyone has their own criteria, so we, of course, will not offer you a ready-made solution. But, firstly, we are trying to formulate a schedule so that there is always an opportunity for maneuver, and secondly, we have prepared a short guide on the reports.



    main hall


    Let's start with the speeches that will be held in the main hall, as they will be available to a wide audience of users of the Habr.
    Everyone will be able to watch the online broadcast of the main hall, we will publish the link on the eve of the festival in a separate news - do not miss.

    Together with  Alexei Okhrimenko from IPONWEB, we’ll try to determine what is wrong with the usual desire to rewrite the code, we will figure out how to deal with it, what are the approaches to refactoring, and what can they achieve using the example of a computer game.

    Everything is clear about Yegor Utrobin ’s report from Mail.ru - the invaluable experience of the Mail.ru mail team in implementing microservices on the front end to speed up almost all stages of the development process. It will be interesting to know if everything is so rosy, and what efforts it required.
    At this point, before proceeding to section reports, we consider it appropriate to indicate a link to ticket reservations .

    New items


    Let's go further. A conference is a place where you can quickly find out about trends and updates . Moreover, immediately with analytics and a rake map. Here is what we will have on this part.

    Javascript frameworks


    The category is extensive, and starting here seems logical from the story.

    Anastasia Lopatina (CSSSR) proposes to give us a brief excursion on the evolution of frameworks, as this will highlight the key motive for continuous development and  more consciously choose frameworks . HeadHunter's Nikita Mostovoi 's

    report focuses on the React-Redux stack and middleware features in particular. And not about redux-thunk, redux-saga and the like, but custom ones. Together with  Andrei Solodovnikov from N1.RU we offer to understand

    This is not all, but you can get to know the rest yourself - the list of accepted reports can be filtered by tags.



    Quality


    In the broadest sense of the word, this is the goal of every professional , web developers are no exception, so a number of reports discuss ways to improve the user experience right up to the choice of a text editor by the developer!

    It seems that this is the time to stop. All the same, short annotations will not reveal the topic in any way, and what will happen in the speech itself is known only to the speaker and members of the program committee, but they will keep the intrigue. So come, get connected to the broadcast and find out everything to the smallest detail - this is exactly why corridors are needed.

    See you in Skolkovo!
