|---|---|---|
| Functional Principles In React | Jessica Kerr | 28m |
Claims four principles tie React and functional programming: composition, declarative style, immutability and isolation. Shows concrete tools: React with… | ||
| Elegant React with ES6 (and a bit of ES7) | Jem Young | 26m |
Shows concrete ES6/ES7 moves: swap vars for let and const to avoid hoisting bugs, convert require/exports to ES6 modules with hoisted imports and working… | ||
| Testable React Components | Julia Gao | 14m |
Concrete rules for making React components testable: separate concerns so AJAX lives in a thin fetch component and UI is props driven not state driven, mock… | ||
| Why is React "functional"? | John K Paul | 20m |
Claim: React treats the UI as view as pure function of application state rather than a sequence of DOM mutations, using a render method plus unidirectional… | ||
| Bringing Observable Data to React | Andrew Imm | 25m |
Built a small library called parse-plus-react that wires Rx-style observables into React by adding an observe lifecycle where subscriptions are a function of… | ||
| Exploring GraphQL | Lee Byron | 28m |
GraphQL is described as a typed query language with introspection and fragments and it ships as production infrastructure powering native Newsfeed and… | ||
| GraphQL Servers | Nick Schrock | 28m |
A GraphQL server exposes a single endpoint that takes a query string and runs five concrete components: parser/lexer, type system, introspection, validation… | ||
| Syncing stores using socket streams | Abhinav Rastogi | 17m |
Claim: a dispatcher that emits Flux actions over sockets keeps stores in sync across clients while remaining a drop-in replacement for the Facebook dispatcher… | ||
| Making small modules actually work with webpack and npm | Lin Clark | 24m |
Claim: webpack plus npm can make tiny front-end modules truly modular by increasing cohesion and reducing coupling. Concrete tools and steps: use Babel loader… | ||
| Animated | Christopher Chedeau | 23m |
Shows how React Native gets 60fps animations by trading generality for targeted fixes: tries shouldComponentUpdate and static container to avoid rerenders… | ||
| Exponent: A React Native development tool | Charlie Cheever | 19m |
Exponent promises a workflow that hides native build systems so teams just write JavaScript on top of XDE, the Exponent phone app and an online host. It claims… | ||
| Falcor: Simplifying Your Data | Brian Holt | 20m |
Claim: Falcor treats local and remote data the same and handles fetching and caching for you. Live specifics include model.get paths and JSON Graph as the data… | ||
| React & Web Audio Api: Building a MIDI Interace | Peter Piekarczyk | 26m |
Claims a working browser DAW: React components wrap the Web Audio API and the MIDI API to create oscillators, envelopes and an instrument that spawns and kills… | ||
| React and WebGL | Ricky Vetter | 18m |
A production app moves from Knockout+SVG to React plus WebGL (via 3js), raising interactive object capacity from ~200 to about 5,000 objects and usable up to… | ||
| Flux for Data Visualization: A Preliminary Manifesto | Jana Beck | 30m |
Argues for managing complex D3 visualizations with Flux, claiming explicit state beats buried D3 closures and event-driven DOM hacks. Describes a concrete… | ||
| Flow or how I learned to stop worrying and typecheck my React code | Jeff Morrison | 23m |
Flow claims to be a code‑intelligence engine not just a type system, built to run whole‑repo static analysis so tools like minifiers and refactorers get… | ||
| Migrating critical apps to React | Jamis Charles | 21m |
Migration at PayPal Send Money moves a legacy Dust/RequireJS/Backbone stack to React and webpack, converting property files to JSON and adding an i18n mixin so… | ||
| How React literally waters my lawn | Dave Smith | 18m |
A home sprinkler system is ripped out and rebuilt as a networked controller that uses a 24V AC relay board (bought from a hobbyist in Hungary) driven by an old… | ||
