25.01.2022 In the leadup to Product://remote we're putting the spotlight on the 2 dozen fantastic sessions we have lined up for attendees. Design Fiction and Space to Speculate By Jack O'Donoghue When we work in the same way as our competitors, we sign up for the same set of constraints. On the same path to the same destination. We’re good at improving our products through a series of iterations, but the holy grail of bold innovation is as elusive as ever.

25.01.2022 Specifying JavaScript Yulia Startsev, Staff Software Engineer Mozilla Language specification can be a bit of a mystery. This talk will introduce the stages of the TC39 process for introducing a new language feature to JavaScript, and some high level concerns around our design process. About Yulia Startsev Yulia Startsev is a programmer at Mozilla on the SpiderMonkey Team. She represents Mozilla at TC39, the standardizing body for JavaScript. http://webdirections.org//web-directions-hover-21-session/

23.01.2022 The Third Age of JavaScript Shawn Swyx Wang, Head of Developer Experience Temporal.io The way we write JavaScript is poised for dramatic change in the 2020's. Here's why: the slow death of IE11 and rollout of ES Modules will converge toward a new generation of JavaScript tooling. These tools are faster, typesafer, and polyglot, leading to both a better developer and user experience.... http://webdirections.org//web-directions-hover-21-session/

17.01.2022 An energizing, diverse community of developers who share insights, expertise, and best practices of using media technology in web and mobile apps. Their new discord channel is a great place to connect with hundreds of other developers and connect with others who have a passion for the media experience on the web. Share resources, events, tools, plugins, content, or just simply chat about career/mentorship/gaming/ anything fun you’d like! Thanks to to Media Developer Experts for their support of Lazy Load! http://webdirections.org//thanks-to-the-new-media-develop/

16.01.2022 Rethinking JavaScript with Generator Functions Patrick Smith, product developer Functional programming allows JavaScript that is easier to reason about and easier to test. Generator functions are like enhanced pure functions, allowing new software patterns for state machines, parsers, streaming HTML renderers, and more. They are composable so offer similar benefits to components yet in more domains than just the view.... http://webdirections.org//web-directions-hover-21-session/

16.01.2022 For many many years we've covered designing product management at our conferences. For most of that time, they were included as tracks at our Summit, but in recent years we've delivered dedicated conferences for these disciplines. In 2020, Product was to be a two track conference focussed on product design, ownership and management, but as we've written about a number of times, COVID-19 made us rethink everything we were doing (as it has for so many people).

11.01.2022 Rethinking the JavaScript ternary operator James Sinclair, Senior Developer Atlassian Lots of people treat the ternary operator with suspicion. At first glance, ternaries appear unnecessary. Nothing more than a tool for the overly-clever to trim some characters from their code; a favourite hack for coders who don’t care about readability. And sure, it’s all too easy to turn ternaries into an indecipherable mess.... http://webdirections.org//web-directions-hover-21-session/

08.01.2022 For 15 years Web Directions has held in-person events. Beginning with one a year as a side project, it became over time, several a year, across a range of areas of practice around designing, developing and delivering digital products and experiences (with an emphasis but not exclusively so) on the Web. And we'd like to think we got good at it. [ 772 more words ] https://www.webdirections.org//product-remote-a-brand-new/

02.01.2022 A few months back, Xavier Ho, now an interaction design lecturer at Monash University (who over the years has attended and spoken at our conferences, and even been our videographer for a couple) asked me to give a lecture to his design students. I delivered that last week, but it brought together many of the themes and ideas I've been thinking about this strange year, and about the Web's role in the strangeness, so I thought I'd reproduce it here.
