I still can’t get over that this actually happened. JSConf EU has a very special place in my heart as it was the ultimate conference for me when I first got into tech. Even though I’m more on the design side than the coding side, I still watch their videos and follow the twitter devotedly as they have not only the best roster of speakers ever, they are serious about creating a tech ecosystem that…

In my last blog post, I talked about what I was trying to teach at the Uruguayan JSConf - diving in to the statistical side of things. However, mine wasn’t the only talk (what a boring conference that would’ve been!). There were a wide range of talks on the schedule over the couple of days.
I have to say, I was really excited by the whole schedule. Every speaker was amazing, and the variety was really exciting. There were some deep dives into technology, but others that touched on a non-technical subject and began to tease you into how this affects your thinking about JavaScript.
There were more talks that I could mention - my mind was overloaded by the end of day one - but I’ve tried to list some of the talks that captured my imagination (and thought would be interested to share) below.
Electron.js (@reverentgeek)
Electron is a framework that creates desktop applications by running an embedded browser. David Neal rightly pointed out the advantages - you get to write your familiar HTML/CSS/JS - and the disadvantages - being forced to write in your familiar HTML/CSS/JS. Electron looks very powerful and very cool, especially because it means that it means that your desktop applications can be written cross-platform. Such successful tools at github’s text editor Atom have already been written on this and it looks like a cool tool that anyone likely to write desktop apps should add to their arsenal.
Graphical CLIs (@patrickkettner)
Patrick is a Product Manager at Microsoft Edge, but was talking about his experience migrating pet project Modernizr from a web app to a command line app. Not just any command line app, though, one that masquerades as a desktop app, and one that was written in node. Honestly? I’m very unlikely to ever use this but it’s amazing to see just how prevalent node can be these days.
Cellular Automata (@_Irina)
Irina had an infectious enthusiasm for analysing the complexity that can quickly arrive from very simple rules. The most famous cellular automaton is Conway’s Game of Life: you put live and dead cells (or koala and turtles) and based on how they appear near each other, they evolve into future generations. Visualising these patterns in JavaScript looks amazing, and made me want think about where else something like this could be relevant.
Debugging with Chrome Debug Tools (@MattZeunert)
Matt gave one of the most practical talks of the weekend. I don’t think it’s unfair to say there was a little skepticism going into this talk in the form of “Oh, we’re JS developers, we know how to debug.” However, Matt dived down a massive rabbithole to show off a really rich well of tools that many of us didn’t know where there. Did you know you could blacklist files from third party libraries? Disable ‘debugger’ commands from the console? Replay history once you’ve identified the method that throws the exception? I definitely did not and have a much more cool arsenal of JS debugging techniques now. His demos and tips are on his website here.
Thor Spieker, fellow Betable engineer, on his experience at JSConf 2015:
First off, let me start by saying that this was my first conference ever, and also that I am not actually a front-end JavaScript developer. Day to day, I spend my time building back-end micro-services in GO for Betable, an online gambling platform. I only dabble in JavaScript when I need to work on our externally facing API, which is written in Node.js. Needless to say, I was a little intimidated going to an all-JavaScript conference where every single person there was probably a much better JavaScript developer than I currently am.
