FaaS Meets Node.js Frameworks: Developing Cloud Native Node.js Applications at Speed - Chris Bailey, IBM
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) and serverless platforms increase productivity by enabling you to focus on application code, with the platform taking care of how to deploy, configure, run and scale the code. They do however require you to adopt a new programming model, writing simple JavaScript functions or actions instead of using the expressive APIs that are available from Express.js, Hapi.js, Fastify, and other frameworks.

In this session, you’ll learn how it's now possible to create FaaS and serverless based applications using the same framework APIs that you use today, and see a live demo of an application being built and deployed as a serverless cloud native application on Kubernetes.

Robust Tests for Unconventional Environments - Carolina Pinzon, Dapper Labs
Writing robust tests for Dapper, a smart contract Ethereum wallet built as a Chrome extension was a difficult task because of its unusual architecture. Since Dapper users trust them with their valuable tokens and assets, tests were necessary for their team to deliver high-quality code. However, they were almost discouraged from implementing those tests because of the unique blockers they faced while setting up their testing environment. In her talk, Carolina will highlight the nuanced patterns and approaches her team took to facing those challenges, in the hopes of giving other teams the tools to overcome obstacles when adding tests.

Some of the topics that she will describe are: how to build integration tests for an application that communicates with other webpages using a background script, or how to check security vulnerabilities when dealing with client-side generated keys.

Getting the Most out of JavaScript Errors - Ben Vinegar, Sentry
For years, "logging errors" from web apps meant piping Apache errors into var/log/httpd/error_log. It's only recently that that changes in technology have made it possible to collect, report, and aggregate errors directly from JavaScript in the browser. But until you understand how the Error object works, how stack traces are generated, and how global error collection handlers operate, you'll have a hard time making sense of it all. In this talk, we deep dive into these topics to help you better understand the problems being reported from browser JavaScript environments – to ultimately help you build better applications.

Stream into the Future - Matteo Collina, NearForm
There was a time when Node.js streams were all the rage but over time the Node.js Core Streams codebase became extremely complex and hard to understand. Worse still, WHATWG introduced an API for browser Streams. The two Streams API’s are incompatible with each other and both are complex and leaky abstractions. In this talk, a Node.js Core Streams maintainer presents a stream-less future by demonstrating how to use pure JavaScript: Async Iterators and Generators can give us everything Streams can while being completely cross-platform and highly performant.

Securing the DOM from the Bottom Up - Mike Samuel & Krzysztof Kotowicz, Google LLC
18 years have passed since Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) became the single most common security problem in web applications. Since then, numerous efforts have been proposed to detect, fix or mitigate it, but these piecemeal efforts have not combined to make it easy to produce XSS-free code.

This talk introduces Trusted Types (being implemented in browsers) and explains how Google’s security team has achieved a high-level of safety against XSS and related problems by integrating tools to make it easier for developers to produce secure software than vulnerable, and to bound the portion of a codebase that could contribute to a vulnerability.

We will show how this works in practice and end with advice on how to achieve the same results on widely-used, open-source stacks and new browser mechanisms that will make it much easier to achieve high-levels of security with good developer experience.

Next Generation N-API: A Hands-on Workshop - Nicola Del Gobbo, Packly & Jim Schlight, Inspiredware (Limited Seating; First-come, First-Served Basis)
Tooling for Node native add-on development continues to rapidly evolve. After widespread adoption of N-API last year, the Node native add-on ecosystem is gaining momentum as the underlying technology advances.

This workshop describes important new features critical to the performance of your native add-on. These features include asynchronous operations which permit you to safely and reliably spread your work across multiple threads. Context awareness permits your add-on to be loaded multiple times without the copies interfering with each other. Finally, adopting thread-safe functions insures your functions run reliably regardless of the thread from which they are called or in which they run.

Bring your project or work through the workshop tutorials under the helpful guidance of the N-API experts. You’ll leave this workshop with a solid understanding of these important new technologies.

Node.js 10.5.0 introduced `worker_threads`, enabling the creation of simple multi-threaded applications in JavaScript. This may sound daunting if you've never dealt with threads before in another language. But JavaScript threads are pretty simple and, very importantly, fun. This talk will be a quick introduction to the fun of worker_threads.

Workshop: Cloud Native Development for Node.js Engineers - Luke Holmquist, Red Hat
As cloud services and deployment platforms have come to bear more and more responsibility for the “Enterprise” features of modern application development, Node.js becomes more appealing for enterprise engineers who want to take advantage of its light weight, quick startup time, developer productivity and overall happiness.

But cloud native development can seem daunting. How do you both write an app and also deal with automation, service discovery, observability, immutability, scalability and all of the other cloud native and practices?

It’s a lot to keep track of. It’s a lot to do. It’s scary!

But it doesn’t have to be. In this workshop you will learn how to develop and deploy Kubernetes managed Node.js applications. By the time we’re done, you will have created a Node.js application backed by Node.js microservices, and deployed it to a live Kubernetes cluster.

Hacker-Powered Data: Why the Most Common Vulnerabilities Aren’t What You Think They Are - David Horvath, HackerOne
Vulnerabilities are a fact of life. Regardless of how skilled a developer is or how mature an organizations' security posture, vulnerabilities will occur. In this session, HackerOne will present data on the most common critical vulnerabilities based on data from over 1,400 bug bounty and vulnerability disclosure programs. Attendees will discover common weaknesses that they won’t find on the OWASP top ten — such as Violation of Secure Design Principles, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, Cryptographic Issues and more — and how attackers could exploit these prevalent vulnerabilities. Whether you run an active security program or if your security@ email address is routed to /dev/null, this session topic will arm attendees with insights into the most common security weaknesses to better defend against them — both in development ecosystems and post-launch.

Workshop: Build your First VS Code Extension - Nicolas Carlo, Busbud & Florent Vilmart, Shutterstock (Limited Seating; First-come, First-Served Basis)
Visual Studio Code is a text editor that has become very popular. A reason for such fame is Extensions. You can pick and install just the ones that fit your needs. You can customize VS Code to be super-productive. That's cool.

But have you ever considered going further, and extend VS Code at your will?
Have you ever thought about becoming the author of your own VS Code Extension?

Nicolas and Florent will guide you through this hands-on. You'll learn how to create, configure, package and publish a VS Code Extension.

In this workshop, you will understand how you can manipulate the structure of your code, using the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). Together, we'll build your first VS Code Extension that will perform your own, custom, automated refactorings.

After this session, you'll know how to control your editor to give you (and your team) coding super-powers!

Oh No! The Robots Have Taken Over! - Christopher Wilcox, Google
As part of his work, Chris and his team at Google are responsible for managing libraries for 150 APIs across 7 languages. This results in a crushing amount of toil, making it hard at times to both make forward progress and maintain what has been created.

When you own over 70 node repositories you have to get creative. So the team decided to make an army of sorts. An army of screaming, free roaming robots.

Bots can have a freeing effect on your engineering team. Come to hear how embracing automation has let a team of engineers do what they do best and let the toil fall to the machines.

Bringing JavaScript to the IoT Edge - Joe Karlson, MongoDB
The number of IoT devices is expected to be around 18 billion by 2022 and be a market of over $500 Billion. Edge computing is becoming an even bigger requirement. As a versatile language, JavaScript is in a great position to power many of these devices. This session will explore why and where JavaScript is being used in this industry segment and specifically the role that Node.JS plays in the Internet of Things.

Data collection in the IoT arena comes in fast and from a variety of sensors and devices. How to model that data is important for analysis downstream. We’ll also take a look at some different schema design patterns to think about when storing the data in a modern database, like MongoDB.

Memory Chronicles: Manage, Trace and Fix Memory Leaks - Giovanny Gongora, NodeSource
Let’s start talking about taking the time to set up a proper test environment to repeat the exact same conditions as in production. Performance metrics? Response time higher? Memory leak? We would walk through different memory leak situations to identify and analyze patterns that produce an increase of memory, CPU usage, and the load average over time, without any apparent reason. Learn about memory and how to access Node.js memory using a V8 Inspector & Chrome Dev Tools, create a dump of the heap memory for the inspected application, with a lot of details about the memory usage, watching memory allocation in real time and finally a compilation of best practices about how we could end fixing the memory leak. In the end, we'll be able to use the right tools to monitor, understand, and debug the memory consumption of a Node.js application on time.

Rethinking JavaScript Test Coverage - Benjamin Coe, Google
In 2017 the V8 engine introduced built-in code coverage; the ability, during runtime, to track the executed lines, branches, functions, etc., of a program. This information is useful for: analyzing bottlenecks, finding unused code, and finding parts of a codebase that need more tests.

Realizing how valuable native coverage could be to the community, Ben made it a mission to expose this functionality in Node.js.

In JavaScript coverage had traditionally been facilitated by a clever hack; tools, like Istanbul, parse the code inserting no-op counters... While this parsing-based approach works, it has shortcomings: as the language evolves, parsers play catch up; counters decrease performance; counters sometimes break applications.

Implementing native coverage in Node.js, was an amazing opportunity for V8, Node.js, and the npm community to work together, and is an exciting success story.

Why You Should Maintain Type Definitions for Your JavaScript Project - Ethan Arrowood, Microsoft
TypeScript support is one of the most sought-after features for any popular open source JavaScript project.

Fastify, a fast and low overhead web framework for Node.js, strives to treat TypeScript developers as first-class citizens even in a library written entirely in JavaScript. Since TypeScript 2.8 the Fastify team has been able to write and maintain our own type definition file shipped directly from Fastify itself. This has enabled our developers to rely on a single dependency and trust what they are using is always up-to-date.

This talk will share some of the lessons we've learned thus far, and it will explore some of the interesting changes we are making in the v3 refactor.

GraphQL, Simplified - David Clements & Matteo Collina, NearForm (Limited Seating; First-come, First-Served Basis)
Use React? Use GraphQL? Love Hooks? Graphql-hooks is a new GraphQL client for React with a hooks-first API. It’s super fast and weighs only 1.9kB gzipped.

The motivation behind graphql-hooks was a barebones GraphQL Client, focused on speed and lightweight. Both Apollo and Relay have pioneered how to use GraphQL on the client. However, over the years they’ve grown in size and complexity. This has increased the barrier to entry for new developers excited to try out GraphQL.

In this workshop, David and Matteo will be demonstrating how quick and simple it is to get up and running with the graphql-hooks client and fastify-gql GraphQL server library to produce an easily maintainable and high performance fullstack GraphQL implementation.

Scaling Accessibility in the Age of Components - Ayesha Mazumdar, Optimizely
We often build component libraries to improve consistency, collaboration, and customization for a given product. But what if a component library could also scale accessibility across the entire organization? Building accessible components can help distribute responsibility across all of design and engineering, without needing everyone to be an expert on the nitty-gritty details. In this session, we'll go through specific component examples and use cases to help you and your team contribute to a better, more inclusive web.

The State of the Art in Localization - Eemeli Aro, Vincit
A review of the current tools, libraries and specifications available for localization and message formatting in JavaScript. Covering everything from framework-specific front-end libraries to server-side tools. What to take into account when selecting your own solutions, including integration with other languages and systems as well as the needs and expectations of translators. Noting in particular which early decisions are significant and hard to reverse later, and which are trivial to refactor later. Also briefly looking at where the current specification work is at, and where it might be going next.

Workshop: How to Use Powerful Feature Flags and Controlled Rollouts - Asa Schachar & Justina Nguyen, Optimizely (Limited Seating; First-come, First-Served Basis)
We'll focus on the beginning of the product experimentation journey -- feature management and feature rollouts. When used strategically and thoughtfully, feature flags can be powerful tools in mitigating risk in your development cycle. Feature flags give us a high degree of control over the features we release — but what ensures we have a high degree of control over our feature flags?

In this hands-on technical workshop, attendees will learn how to strategically create feature flags in multiple development environments and roll them out to a subset of their customers. We'll talk briefly about the possibilities feature flags open up, and then describe how to use best practices of visibility and accountability to align those different flags into a cohesive feature flagging system.

JS in the Virtual & Augmented Reality Ecosystem - Andrés Cuervo, Independent
Allowing people to overlay data on the real world & create user interfaces in 3D, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) — referred to together as "XR" — are rapidly emerging on our smartphones and on specialized headsets. Some believe that XR will change everything from entertainment & art to business software, so how does JavaScript play a role? Andrés Cuervo will look at how XR platforms today are adopting JavaScript through the Immersive Web API, developers are using Node to run JavaScript in embedded XR devices, and what the future of JS XR development might look like.

Throw Me a Lifebuoy: Debugging Node.js in Production with Diagnostic Reports - Christopher Hiller, IBM
Diagnostic Reports are a recent addition to Node.js core. This feature enables insight into Node.js processes running in production—without needing to attach a debugger—and the results can be interpreted offline. If you've ever had to debug issues in production with a customer, you know this can be a life-saver.

I’ll show you how to trigger report generation manually and automatically, then use the results to diagnose a problem process. While this is fine and dandy, manual diagnosis can be tedious, so I'll also demo a toolkit I've been working on. This toolkit can help automatically detect known issues, redact secrets from a report, and much more.

About Life, Robots and Cats! - Constanza Yáñez Calderón, Mercado Libre
When I was a child I dreamt a lot about creating robots that helped me in my daily life, like tidying up my bedroom. That was just a dream till I grow up and found out that there's something called home automation. So I decided to build Sasha, my cats' pet sitter, that helps me by feeding my cats when I have to get home a little bit late. Sasha changed my life and my cats are stressless because they can eat their meal at the right time.

In this talk, I will share my experience on using JavaScript to build Sasha and will walkthrough its features. Last, I'll talk about other possible use cases and the potential of home automation with JavaScript.

When Porgs Scream at Webpack and Other Stories - Dominik Kundel, Twilio
For many web developers the world of hardware is very intimidating. There is no easy way to go back from a broken to a working project state. You break something, you replace it — there is no Ctrl/Cmd + z. However, getting a project to work is incredibly fun and rewarding.

From an API for your coffee machine to a porg that screams every time your webpack build fails to playing games with hundreds of people at the same time, the only limit is your imagination*.

You might not leave this talk with a degree in Electrical Engineering**, but you'll learn useful basics to help you enter the wonderful world of hardware. We'll look at different ways to combine JS and hardware, from APIs all the way to JS enabled microcontrollers. All tied up with some live demos. At the end you won't be able to wait to start your own hardware adventure!
