Hosted software as a service is great, but can give the provider too much leverage over your data and the software itself. Meanwhile, self-hosted software, like many open source solutions, takes away the key value proposition of SaaS. Luckily, "semi-hosted" is a model that provides the best of both worlds and enables customization and extensibility not usually possible. I want to talk about this pattern and show what you can do with it by demonstrating a semi-hosted personal organizer I've been building with Deno and Mithril.js called Treestar.

JavaScript has a horribly rich history of writing package managers with none fully reigning as the final winner in a perpetual war for popularity and utility. Let's cover some of their differences, that actually end up with some fun surprises about nuances in how they work along the way!

JavaScript gives us some primitives to express asynchrony like promises, and async functions, but unfortunately they do not guarantee correctness. In fact far from it. Most async code is full of edge-cases and foot guns that never reveal themselves until you’re at scale. In this talk, we’ll put names to all these edge-cases and footguns so that you can recognize them instantly when they happen to you. After showing the ills, we’ll talk about the the cure: an exciting new way of thinking about our programs called Structured Concurrency. Language communities from Go, and Rust to Swift and Java, are all ablaze with talk of it, so whether you’ve explored this topic before or this is the first you’ve heard of it, you won’t want to miss this talk, because in ten years time, it will be the norm and we’ll all wonder how we ever did without it.

Build native mobile apps in JavaScript! Just regular JavaScript without any mobile frameworks.
25+
26+
This can be a great solution if you’re a web developer and JavaScript is your bread and butter. Apps built this way work fast, are quick to deploy, and don’t have to pass App Store reviews every time! So come and learn about the pros and cons of this approach, and what it takes to build a JS native mobile app.
