CSS feels like magic at times, doesn't it? By understanding how it works, we can not only demystify the magic, but we can improve our sites in real and practical ways. In this talk, we'll take a look at CSS from the perspective of the rendering engine, to peek behind the curtains and take a deep look at how the layout engine handles converting your CSS into pixels on the screen.
The tech industry regards burnout like a weird badge of honor. Dave Ruperts holds a roundtable conversation to talk about burnout in the tech industry--bring your stories and ideas how to stop it.
Your chance to ward off the afternoon slump! With chips and dips, baked pretzels and even some cookies!
HTML and CSS are all you need to create a Design System that unifies the visual appearance of your products, but as soon as you want to create consistent behavior between applications, you'll need to turn to JavaScript. More often than not, using a modern framework such as React, Vue, or Angular will save you lots of time, and keep you from reinventing the wheel.
In this talk, I will discuss how moving interactivity into the Design System is not only a good choice today, but is most certainly how you will be creating Design Systems in the future. I'll also be discussing the React-powered Design System I've been helping to create which powers a few apps you might have heard of, including SharePoint, OneDrive, and Outlook for the web.
Join your fellow attendees, conference speakers, and a few surprise guests as we walk a short parade route through the French Quarter. We’ll be escorted by a second-line jazz band along with New Orleans’ Finest. Costumes and jugglers are welcome!
We’ll finish the parade at Jackson Square, where tour guides will be waiting to take you on a variety of themed walking tours. Due to the limited number of spots for tours: first come, first serve. You will need your CSS Dev Conf Wristband or official badge in order to go on a tour.
After the tour, your guide will at Café du Monde for beignets and conversation.
Stop by after your tour or after dinner for dessert and coffee at a New Orleans institution. Local Dribbblers are welcome, too!
Tuesday breakfast includes fresh-squeezed fruit juices, fresh fruit and berries, yogurt, an assortment of cereals, biscuits and sausage, croissant breakfast sandwiches, and all the coffee and tea you need to get going.
If you think outside the box, you can solve almost anything with CSS. Join Estelle Weyl to learn the power of CSS, as she solves several CSS WTFs. Depending on your perspective, that can mean “wonderfully terrific feature” or, very often, “what the @#$%!.” Once you realize the power of CSS, you’ll want to jump back into it (instead of relying on frameworks that were necessary when few knew how to support IE6-8).
Topics may include:
How do you take a complex web application, with a myriad of components and interactions, and make it fully responsive without pulling your hair out for a year?
With a focus on Container Queries, we’ll look at the approach the Shopify Admin team used, from design to development, to manage the intricate interactions between all the application’s components, pulling off a fully fluid responsive design in under a month.
We’ll also look at how this approach is currently being used at Xero to achieve unity between disparate tech stacks and to speed up the development process.
As we start to get comfortable with new ES6 features of JavaScript, both the language and the web platform is charging forward with many new features. This talk will cover some of the best things that are brand new to JavaScript as well as things that we can look forward to in the coming months and years. Strap yourself in for a fast-paced talk full of hot tips as we rocket ourselves into the future of JavaScript.
As superfluous as something like animation may initially seem, you can tell a lot about framework by the way that it handles the concept of time. Idiosyncrasies and race conditions in rendering reveal themselves, pauses in DOM and virtual DOM diffing can be exposed.
This is one of the ways Vue shows itself to be uniquely capable and elegant as a framework. In this session, we'll cover how to use the <transition> component and some of its offerings to create fluid effects in the browser. We'll move on to watchers and transitioning state. Finally, we'll talk about lifecycle methods, asynchronous updates, and pushing our animations to the next level.
Lunch is on your own, so grab some new friends and try that local restaurant your friend told you to try.

It’s an ever-evolving field, they say, and the job of a front-ender these days is broad. It’s not just “I write the HTML and CSS” anymore if it ever was. It’s part designer, part coder, part empath, part interaction designer, and part futurist. Let’s talk about all that by actually building a website. We’ll start from scratch, work through the stages of the process, and end up with a finished website. This will give us an excuse to talk about all the big topics in front-end development and what our jobs really are.
How will this happen? Among other things:
All this in just one day? Yes! By the time we’re done, we’ll have reconsidered not just what we do, but why we do it, and how to do it better moving forward.
React is a JavaScript library that has become the tool the choice for easily building dynamic user interfaces. The power is in the Virtual Dom — when your application’s data changes, React figures out which parts of your document need to be changed, and immediately update only those parts.
Hundreds of thousands of developers from small agencies to large companies use React to deliver top notch experiences in their apps and dynamic website components:
