Chris Heilmann gave a talk celebrating beautiful web sites but noted that many sites could be more optimized. He highlighted that the average site is over 2 MB in size, with images making up over 1 MB of that. Many sites use unnecessary libraries, send high resolution images to all devices, and include autoplay videos without checking connection speed. However, newer browser capabilities like Flexbox, Service Workers, and camera/microphone access provide opportunities. Sites should cut unnecessary code, optimize images, and leverage new technologies to create accessible experiences for all types of users on today's capable browsers.

Frameworks became popular but could be incompatible and difficult to decouple. It suggests that ES6 and React provide a good foundation for building front-ends, as React code can be written in ES6 and they avoid issues of other frameworks.
You're organised, you love spreadsheets, you're a great cheerleader, you handle a backlog with superhero skills, and now you're faced with managing a Drupal project and everything just feels foreign. It's not you, it's Drupal. The mix of site building, front end development, backend development, and over 20,000 contributed modules makes project management for Drupal exceptionally frustrating for people who've not worked with Drupal before.
This session will cover:
- the basic Drupal development workflow (from a developer's perspective, but without using developer jargon)
writing useful tickets which developers can accomplish
- estimation tips for multi-discipline tickets (design / back end / front end)
- ideal team structures -- and what to do if you can't get them
Updated from DrupalCamp London to include the truisms I've learned about being a first-time project manager.

It notes that Google Docs allows users to create documents, spreadsheets, and presentations online that can be accessed from any computer connected to the internet. It also allows for collaboration where multiple people can work on the same document at the same time. The document suggests that Google Docs prevents data loss issues that can happen with local storage on devices like floppy disks or flash drives.
The document discusses Grunt.js, a JavaScript task runner. It can automate tasks like linting JavaScript, concatenating files, minifying code, and compiling CSS preprocessors. Grunt runs from the command line using Node.js. Common tasks like validating, concatenating, and minifying code can be easily automated by installing plugins and configuring tasks in a Gruntfile.js.
The document discusses unconventional approaches to learning web development that involve avoiding commonly used tools and resources. It suggests typing out all code examples by hand rather than copying and pasting, coding entire web pages without checking them in the browser, and writing your own scripts for common tasks like lightboxes instead of using existing code. While these approaches may be slower, the document argues they will improve understanding of syntax, concepts, and problem-solving through debugging mistakes made in manually coding examples and reinventing existing functionality.

It summarizes the major features such as intelligent PHP and HTML/CSS editing, debugging and testing tools, code formatting and refactoring tools, and support for version control and databases. The document encourages developers to try the 30-day free trial of PhpStorm.
The document provides advice and resources for getting started with programming. It recommends finding a mentor and learning with friends to avoid discouragement. Several online resources are listed for learning programming fundamentals and competitive coding. The key is to try many things before giving up and keep learning new technologies to discover your interests. Starting with what interests you initially and keeping trying without giving up are advised.
The document discusses using JavaScript like a buffet, where developers should be flexible and not try to do everything with JavaScript or force their preferences on others. It encourages sharing code openly but also being considerate of different environments and users. Developers are advised to focus on quality over quantity and consider progressive enhancement over delivering all functionality at once.
Suit up, bring extra oxygen Internet space explorers needed.Christian Heilmann
The document discusses the future of computing and artificial intelligence. It notes that people are both excited and fearful about technological progress, and outlines things that are going right (e.g. advances in machine learning and computer vision) as well as things that are going wrong (e.g. lack of transparency, data privacy issues). It argues that the future of computing needs people who are not afraid of technology and who will create interfaces that are simple, human, and help people communicate better. The role of technologists is to use their skills to give people a sense of data ownership and ensure technological progress improves lives rather than just making money.
The document discusses how developers have become disconnected from users as technology has advanced. It argues that developers should focus on building interfaces that are simple, human-centered, and empower users rather than just improving tools. Machine learning and AI can be used to build helpful interfaces, but developers must focus on the human experience and inclusive design. The talk aims to inspire developers to use their skills to improve people's lives rather than just profit or automation.
Progressive Web Apps aim to bring the benefits of native mobile apps to the web. They use newer web capabilities like app manifests and service workers to deliver app-like experiences through the browser. App manifests allow web apps to be installed on home screens and launched full screen like native apps. Service workers enable features like offline access and push notifications. Early adopters are seeing increased user engagement through Progressive Web Apps, with metrics like conversions and time spent improving. While browser support is still evolving, Progressive Web Apps provide a promising approach for delivering high-quality mobile experiences through the web.
1. The document discusses the debate around relying on JavaScript for web applications and progressive enhancement.
2. It argues that while JavaScript can break, the web has evolved to focus more on capable client-side devices rather than availability of JavaScript.
3. It suggests embracing new paradigms like components and functional programming to build high quality, error-handling code rather than avoiding JavaScript.
The document is a conversation between an imagined personification of the Internet and another person. The Internet expresses feelings of being threatened, misused, and not appreciated by how much data people create and how they mainly use it for small talk. It says that while change can be good, it feels stuck between bullies and people who follow trends mindlessly. The other person tries to understand how the Internet feels and what could make it feel better, but the Internet remains uncertain about what can be done to improve its situation.
The document discusses the evolution of the web from progressive web apps to native mobile apps and back again to progressive web apps. It notes that early mobile web faced issues like small screens, poor connectivity and unreliable browsers, leading to the rise of native apps. However, app distribution issues like slow updates and the "walled garden" approach of app stores have led to a renewed interest in progressive web apps that work offline but do not require app stores, allowing for more open distribution like the original web.
This document discusses progressing web development and applications. It talks about some common criticisms of the web, including that browsers differ too much and the web is too flexible. However, it argues that browser differences allow for innovation and flexibility is one of the web's strengths. It promotes an approach of focusing on capabilities rather than browsers. The document also discusses progressing technologies like service workers and progressive web apps that can make applications work offline and feel more like native apps while still being web-based. It concludes by arguing the web is not going away and is a great platform to build upon.

JavaScript Promises and the issue of Progress - SmashingConf Freiburg Jam Ses...Christian Heilmann
This document summarizes a discussion between Chris Heilmann and others about JavaScript promises and progressive enhancement. Some key points discussed include:
- Creating content that works independently of JavaScript as much as possible while using JavaScript to enhance the experience
- Spending more time building interfaces and less time ensuring everything works without JavaScript breaking
- Prioritizing sensible error handling and fallback options over trying to prevent all possible errors
- Avoiding unnecessary network dependencies and focusing on overall security rather than preventing JavaScript from breaking
Outgrowing Brendan Eich’s orders of mission, scope, clojure, prototyping, asynchronicity, ES6 and more great libs turned javascript into a red hot IT topic. Let’s synthesize this wealth and build an evolution where only functionalities and expressed intentions matter. Get ready for neural fun!!!
This document provides a non-technical overview of what a programmer does. It explains that a programmer uses computer languages to communicate with computers, giving examples like Python, Ruby, PHP and SQL for back-end database work, and HTML, CSS and JavaScript for front-end website development. While it provides one example of low-level Windows Assembly code, it notes that programmers typically use higher-level languages that are easier for humans to read and write. It also notes there is no set time to become fluent in a programming language as learning styles and definitions of fluency vary between individuals.

15 Experts on the Art of JavaScript ProgrammingFusionCharts
This document summarizes tips from 15 JavaScript experts on best practices for learning and developing with JavaScript. Some key tips included learning from other languages and principles, producing code that solves problems, embracing interests outside programming, thoroughly learning basic concepts like objects and functions, understanding design patterns, and learning to debug and be a good collaborator early on. Later tips emphasized embracing functional programming concepts, knowing when to compromise versus stand firm, and having empathy for users.
Three coding experts discuss the importance of readability in code. They emphasize:
1. Code should be written for human readers, with descriptive variable and function names, proper indentation and formatting, and comments explaining purpose not just restating code.
2. Readable code is more likely to be correct and easier to maintain than code written only for computers. Formatting, style, and structure help convey meaning to human readers.
3. Assertions, comments, and documentation help future readers understand code by stating assumptions and intended purpose, not just surface behavior. Readable code supports understanding problem requirements in addition to technical solution.

The Next Generation of Flash User ExperienceKevin Suttle
Kevin Suttle is a Flash Platform UX Architect who has been working with Flash for over 5 years. In his presentation, he discusses the current "battle for platform supremacy" between Flash and HTML5. However, he argues that users just want great content and experiences, and both Flash and HTML5 are capable of providing that. He outlines many new user experience focused APIs in Flash Player 10.1 for touch, gestures, accessibility and more. He advocates for an approach of "mobilizing, not minimizing" applications to provide adaptive experiences across devices using Flash technologies like AIR.
'10 Great but now Overlooked Tools' by Graham ThomasTEST Huddle
The idea for this presentation came directly from EuroSTAR 2011. Sitting on the bus back to the conference centre after attending the Gala Dinner, a discussion started, about industry luminaries who turn up at conferences and give presentations which roughly say "Don't do all the stuff that I told you to do 5 years ago! Do this stuff now." But, but, but . . . .
As we got talking I realised how many simple effective tools I no longer used, because they have either become overlooked, forgotten and thus fallen into disuse, or because modern methods claim not to need them and they are redundant. I wondered if any of them were worth looking at again - starting with my trusty flowcharting template; I realised it is a great tool which I have overlooked for far too long!
Here is my list of 10 great but now overlooked tools:
• Flowcharts
• Prototypes
• Project Plans
• Mind Maps
• Tools we already have at our disposal like ....
• Aptitude Tests
• Hexadecimal Calculators
• Desk Checking
• Data Dictionaries and Workbenches
This is my list of really useful tools that I think are overlooked. In the webinar I will outline each tool, why I think it was great, and what we are missing out by not using it.
And it naturally follows that if there are some tools we have overlooked then there are also some tools that we should get rid of! I will identify some.
Hopefully this webinar will give you a different perspective on tools to use for testing, some tools that may be improved upon or plain discarded, and help you think about the tools you currently use and maybe to view them in a different light.

Examples of applications developed in Ring are also referenced, including stock data visualization, puzzle games, a URL shortener, and a Windows startup manager.
We are obsessed with coding and creating automated workflows and optimisations. And yet our final products aren't making it easy for people to use them. Somewhere, we lost empathy for our end users and other developers. Maybe it is time to change that. Here are some ideas.
This document discusses ways to improve how web developers learn best practices through browser and tooling improvements. It suggests that linting and inline insights directly in code editors could help prevent mistakes by flagging issues early. A tool called webhint is highlighted that provides one-stop checking and explanations of hints related to performance, accessibility, security and more. The document advocates for customizing hints based on a project's specific needs and environment. Overall, it argues for accelerated learning through context-sensitive, customizable best practices integrated into development workflows.
This document discusses privilege in the context of social media and the internet. It acknowledges privileges like internet access, the ability to communicate, and supportive online communities.

Killing the golden calf of coding - We are Developers keynoteChristian Heilmann
The document discusses concerns about the perception and realities of coding careers. It expresses worry that coding is seen solely as a way to get a job rather than as a means of problem-solving. While coding can provide fulfilling work, the document cautions that the need for coders may decrease with automation and that the role may evolve from coding to engineering. It suggests a future where machines assist with repetitive coding tasks and people focus on delivering maintainable, secure products with attention to privacy and user experience.
PWA are a hot topic and it is important to understand that they are a different approach to apps than the traditional way of packaging something and letting the user install it. In this keynote you'll see some of the differences.
This document discusses privilege in technology and perceptions of technology workers. It acknowledges the privileges that tech workers enjoy, such as access to resources and high demand in the job market. However, it also notes problems like peer pressure, lack of work-life balance, and imposter syndrome. Both tech workers and the public have skewed perceptions of each other - tech workers feel others do not appreciate or understand their work, while the public sees tech workers as antisocial or caring only about profit. The document encourages taking small steps to improve the situation, such as being kind to oneself, considering others, sharing knowledge, and focusing on quality over quantity of work.
The document provides five ways for JavaScript developers to be happier:
1) Concentrate on the present and focus on creating rather than worrying about the past or future.
2) Limit distractions by streamlining your development environment and using an editor like VS Code that consolidates features.
3) Make mistakes less likely by using linters to catch errors as you code.
4) Get to know your tools better like debuggers to avoid console.log and gain insights to build better solutions.
5) Give back to others in the community by being helpful rather than causing drama.
The document discusses progressive web apps (PWAs) and provides suggestions for improving them. It notes that while PWAs aim to have engaging, fast, integrated, and reliable experiences like native apps, they still have room for improvement in areas like speed, integration, and reliability. It emphasizes that PWAs should adhere to web best practices and provide actually useful experiences rather than just focusing on technical features. The document encourages helping the PWA effort by providing feedback, using and contributing to tools, keeping messaging up-to-date, and promoting high-quality examples.
Chris Heilmann gave a talk at BTConf in Munich in January 2018 about machine learning, automation worries, and coding. He discussed how coding used to refer to creative programming within technical limitations but now often refers to programming for work. He addressed common worries about new technologies and dependencies, and argued that abstractions are not inherently bad and help more people build products together through consensus. The talk focused on using tools to be more productive and enabling rather than seeing them as dangers, and creating solutions for users rather than fighting old approaches.
Keynote at halfstackconf 2017 discussing the falsehood of the idea that in order to survive the automation evolution everybody needs to learn how to code. Machines can code, too.
Progressive Web Apps - Covering the best of both worlds - DevReachChristian Heilmann
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) can provide app-like experiences through the web by making web content fast, reliable and engaging. While PWAs may not be necessary for all projects, they can help clean up and speed up current web-based projects. PWAs leverage new web capabilities like service workers to work offline, load fast, and improve the user experience without having to meet all the requirements of native apps.
Progressive Web Apps - Covering the best of both worldsChristian Heilmann
This document discusses progressive web applications (PWAs) and their advantages over traditional native mobile applications. PWAs use modern web capabilities like Service Workers to deliver native-like experiences to users. Some key benefits of PWAs include their ability to work across platforms, have smaller file sizes for faster loading, support offline use, and provide simple update mechanisms compared to native apps. While PWAs do not have full access to device capabilities like native apps, they allow delivering app-like web content to users in a more accessible and reliable manner than traditional web pages.
Progressive Web Apps - Bringing the web front and center Christian Heilmann
This document discusses progressive web apps (PWAs). It notes that PWAs aim to make web apps feel like native mobile apps by being discoverable, installable, linkable, safe, responsive and progressive. The document outlines some key characteristics of PWAs, including that they need to be served from secure origins and have app manifests. It also discusses some common misconceptions around PWAs and notes that as PWAs improve, they will continue to blur the line between web apps and native mobile apps.
This document discusses the differences between CSS and JavaScript and when each is most appropriate to use. It argues that CSS is often underestimated in favor of JavaScript solutions. CSS has advanced significantly with features like calc(), media queries, animations/transitions, flexbox, grid, variables and more. These powerful features allow many tasks to be accomplished with CSS alone without needing JavaScript. The document encourages embracing the "squishiness" of the web and considering CSS more when building interfaces.
This document contains the transcript of a presentation by Chris Heilmann on web development. Some of the key points discussed include:
- The benefits of progressive enhancement and using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript together to build robust and accessible websites.
- How limitations in early design can foster creativity.
- The importance of error handling and defensive coding practices.
- Embracing new technologies like Service Workers and Manifests to build Progressive Web Apps.
- Rethinking the idea that JavaScript is unreliable and should not be depended on, as modern browsers have made it a capable tool.
The Soul in The Machine - Developing for Humans (FrankenJS edition)Christian Heilmann
The document discusses how machines and software can help humans by doing tasks like preventing mistakes, performing repetitive tasks, filling information gaps, remembering and categorizing information, improving understanding, enabling new communication methods, and providing protection. It describes how advances in AI, APIs, cloud services, and data processing have made it possible to build useful and helpful interfaces. The conclusion encourages developers to use these capabilities to create simple, human-centric interfaces that benefit users.
“If Tetris has taught me anything, it’s that errors pile up and accomplishments disappear” is a common quote and it seems we’re living this to its full extend as web developers. We fail to celebrate the successes we have and the tools that are at our disposal but we’re never short of finding reasons why things don’t work. We also tend to pile on technology on technology to solve problems that may actually not exist and thus clog up the web. In this talk Chris Heilmann wants to remind us what we achieved and how we should celebrate it and how we should stop trying to solve problems that are simply beyond our control.

3. There is a lot of love for
JavaScript on the web…
💚❤💙💛💜
4. With good
reasons…
😃 Very flexible language
😃 Runs everywhere
😃 Automatically available in browsers
😃 Multiple, open-source engines available
😃 Huge community
😃 Lightweight development environment
(text editor/browser is enough?)
5. Lately JavaScript has a lot of visibility
which leads to obsession instead of love…
🔥💵📈💯📢
6. Which leads to a lot of pressure
and anxiety for us developers…
😫😓😭😱😡
7. Tell me if this
sounds familiar…
🤔 I feel like I’m out of the loop
🤔 By the time I get to play with a new JS
feature, people already blog it is
“considered harmful”
🤔 Everbody talks about flügelhorn.js but I
have no idea what I’d need it for – am I
building things nobody else does?
🤔 What are all these NPM modules on my
HD?
🤔 Why do I get all these warnings when I
build something and how come this is
not a problem?
9. JavaScript used to
be easy - it was
just one language
in the web stack.
HTML
(Structure)
CSS
(Look and Feel)
JavaScript
(Behaviour)
10. Due to its flexible
nature, we
extended its use
cases massively…
11. JavaScript now
is a lot more…
✅ Web Development
✅ Task runners
✅ Package management
✅ Module-driven development
✅ Extension of software (browsers, editors)
✅ APIs
✅ Services
✅ Servers
✅ Fat client applications
✅ Compilation target
✅ Embeddable runtime
✅ Argument firestarter
12. Enhance HTML
progressively
Use libraries
Use APIs and
services
Use node, gulp, grunt, NPM
and others to manage your
tasks and builds
Write code for Node,
other systems and
services to write apps.
Different uses require different skill levels…
13. Actively participate in
systems used earlier
in the timeline…
Participate in extending
editors and development
environments…
Work on meta languages
and ideas to bridge the
gap between JS and
higher level languages.
Actively participate in
inventing the next
version of the language
20. Build tools and process balancing act
Use what enables
others to work with
you…
Use what helps you
write maintainable
code…
21. Progressive enhancement balancing act
Control the UX with
JavaScript and own
the failure cases.
Rely on the browser
to give a “working”
experience.
22. Supporting the past balancing act…
Use powerful
language
additions…
Don’t block out
older browsers and
environments…
23. I can’t help you with all these decisions. It is
up to you and the products you work on
what makes sense and what doesn’t…
24. However, here’s
a few pointers…
🤓 Learn the language - learn how it works,
its strengths and weaknesses.
😉 Use polyfills and libraries when you
know what they do. Make sure you can
remove them and upgrade them if
needed.
😍 ES6 is the current, ratified version of
JavaScript. Use it, don’t wait for it.
🤓 Promises are an important part of every
new JavaScript API. Good to get your
head around them.
😱 Don’t panic! It’s a buffet, not a main
course. Pick what doesn’t make you sick.
