Weekly event at Futurice where developers from all our offices in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Germany and UK are sharing their experience with various frameworks, languages, techniques, services and projects.
A rally call for both Finland and Europe to make your sites faster and leaner than before. Along with a primer on how to do so. Including why your fake fast Gatsby site probably ain't so fast for reals and what to do about it.
Presenter - James Stone

Traditionally the web has consisted of fully Server Side Rendered (SSR) web pages. As new technologies popped up, more and more dynamic features got introduced. Then, came along React and the golden time of JavaScript based Single Page Applications (SPA). But now, we have gone full circle and “everyone” is talking about SSR again. Why?

Many of you are probably using TypeScript in your daily work. And why not, types make our code safer and tooling can help us more. But from time to time you probably encounter some weird behaviour of the type system that you cannot fully understand. This week I want to explain the foundation of the type system of TypeScript and also contrast it a bit with other languages like PureScript.

Long projects take effort. Past hotfixes accumulate, decisions go untold, and uncertainty may loom. In this talk, we’ll go over incremental changes to our ageing play.fiba3x3.com codebase, and the work we are doing to make it be more responsive and accessible. By the end, I hope you’ll have some things to add to your backlog, and ideas for how to tackle them!

A lot of times, when working with a client, you either inherit or interact with a REST API that turns your hair gray. Changing endpoints, undocumented methods, flaky return values, and other surprises make you wish that you had chosen a more pleasant career like lion taming or sword swallowing.
In this tech talk, we will present Unmock, an open-source JavaScript and Python integration testing library that makes working with external APIs delightful. You’ll leave with lots of practical recommendations and code snippets that you can bring to new or existing projects to accelerate development, ease communication, and win more business.

React and Redux are told to embrace Functional Programming (FP) but nothing comes enforced nor explained. Those seeking better FP solutions often come to Elm (A strictly typed purely functional language used for Frontend apps), but it remains a hard sell for the client or employer. Everyone wants “just React.” But today it is possible to get a more FP-like experience using some off-the-shelf libraries and TypeScript configuration.
Topics covered: Redux-loop middleware, the RemoteData pattern from Elm, the Maybe / Just / Nothing monad

You spend your days writing code, most likely a RESTful backend or a client consuming said backend. You’ve done this before, and you’re going to do this again. In the heat of the project it’s easy to forget to note all the things you did well and the things you could improve for next time.
In this talk I’ll list some of the best practices that have stuck with me on how to build a RESTful backend. We’ll cover general advice applicable to any technology choice as well as some practical examples using the Play Framework and Scala programming language.

Browsers can save any website as a PDF, so why should we use a server-side pdf generator to provide PDFs to our users? This talk by Judith explores the browsers ability to generate PDF documents with repeating headers, footers and page numbers and how we can apply these learnings to make a normal website more printer friendly.

Redux is a great solution for managing application-level state that we use in a lot of our projects, for good reason. However, it does not provide any guidance for organizing application logic. In this talk, Denis shares a declarative approach to integrating logic into Redux apps that is well encapsulated, easy to test, and applicable to various use cases.

Excellent documentation is one of the best ways to promote your OS project. Come and learn what excellent documentation is. Also how to improve your current documentation without much effort. And what is a good place to start. BTW all these ideas apply to commercial projects, not only open source.
