Panel: Charles Max Wood Guest: Ian Sinnott This week on My JavaScript Story, Charles speaks with Ian Sinnott. Since being on JavaScript Jabber for Episode 227, he has being writing a lot in JavaScript and has been taking a break from the meetups and podcast scene. He first got into programming when he took two CS courses in college that focused on Java graphical programming and SML. Once these courses were through, he stopped programming for a while and came back to it when he was creating an HTML email template. They talk about why he was excited with web development, how he got into JavaScript, what he is working on currently, and more! In particular, we dive pretty deep on: JavaScript Jabber Episode 227 Ian intro How did you first get into programming? 2 CS courses in college Left programming after the classes Why did you decide to come back? Learning on PHP and WordPress What was it about web development that got you excited? Web development is high level and you can get quick wins What made you cross over into JavaScript?

Panel: Charles Max Wood Aimee Knight AJ ONeal Special Guests: Peggy Rayzis In this episode, the JavaScript Jabber panelists talk about Apollo with Peggy Rayzis. Peggy is an open source engineer on the Apollo team where she primarily focuses on client stuff, working on Apollo Client, and also other libraries. Previously, she was a UI engineer at Major League Soccer where she worked primarily with React and React Native. She discusses what GraphQL is and how it is used, as well as how they use it in the Apollo team to make their lives as developers easier. They also touch on when it would work best to use GraphQL and when it is not ideal to use it. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: AiA 127 Episode Peggy intro What is GraphQL?

Panel: Charles Max Wood Dave Kimura Eric Berry David Richards Special Guests: Jacob Stoebel In this episode of Ruby Rogues, the panel discusses code reviews with Jacob Stoebel. Jacob is a Rails and JavaScript developer and works for ePublishing where he does mostly front-end programming. He talks about how he believes that code reviews can be both honest and nice, and that they should inspire the programmer to want to go back and make his/her code better, not tear him/her down. He also gives fours steps to the response process for giving positive and helpful code reviews. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: Jacob intro Rails and JavaScript Are there other places beside code reviews that we give this kind of feedback? Talking about code reviews is a great ice-breaker at conferences Developing is a creative profession Trust must be present for creativity to flow What led you to this topic? Used to be a high school drama teacher It’s possible to give honest and positive feedback Code reviews CAN be honest and nice Code reviews should be inspiring Code review role play Example if a good code review vs a bad code review Four steps to response process Put the author in the driver’s seat as first The opinion has to be consented Keep the conversation civil and collaborative Rule out passive aggressive comments in the future And much, much more!

Panel: Charles Max Wood Cory House Aimee Knight Joe Eames AJ O'Neal In this episode, the JavaScript Jabber panelists talk about the Framework Summit. It was the brainchild of Merrick Christensen. This summit includes talks on multiple different frameworks all in a two-day conference, which allows you to get exposed to new frameworks while still learning more about the framework your job requires you to use. Another goal of the conference is that it will be able to open people’s eyes up to the different frameworks available to them and show that no one framework is superior to another. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: What is the Framework Summit? The framework you use plays a huge role in your programming For people who want to learn about more than one framework Allows you to explore The format of the conference Park City, Utah in October 2018 Helps you answer which framework should you use? Goal is to open people’s eyes up to other frameworks Decrease internet arguments over which framework is better Fluent Conference Get to have conversation with other people who work in your framework Making connections React Rally Talk Evan Czaplicki The context matters Being able to deep dive into the different frameworks Using frameworks in conjunction with one another Have you seen “religionist” themes in programming frameworks?

Panel: Charles Max Wood Alyssa Nicoll Ward Bell John Papa Special Guests: Brittany Moore In this episode of Adventures in Angular, the panel talks to Brittany Moore about her unique experience into Angular. Brittany has been working as a front-end developer for about four years and is currently a consultant for Test Double. She was first introduced to Angular at a talk that John Papa gave and was blown away by the sheer power of it. She really encourages people who are learning Angular to get out and attend talks, conferences and meetups so that they can build connections and get more information from people who are good at what they do. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: Brittany intro Angular Front-end background JavaScript and CSS Discovered Angular from a talk Angular JS and Angular 2.0 What made Angular appeal to you? CS graduate Before Angular, she used a lot of trial and error C# Had trouble getting stated without a JavaScript background Angular gave her a clear path forward and a framework that was understandable Got on as many online communities she could Learned Angular through help on the internet and community resources Encourages people to attend conferences and meetups Ruby Rogues Episode 255 How did you go to conferences when you didn’t know anyone?

Panel: Charles Max Wood Ward Bell Shai Reznik John Papa Joe Eames Special Guests: Doguhan Uluca In this episode of Adventures in Angular, the panel discusses doing more with less and router-first architecture with Doguhan Uluca. Doguhan works for a consulting company in Washington D.C. called Excella, where he is on the JavaScipt Special fleet and is a software development expert. He is also the founder of the Tech Talk DC meetup and organized the DC Full Stack Dev Summit last year. They talk about doing more with less with code and the importance of deleting code that is unnecessary. Also, they discuss router-first architecture and how it can be used to your advantage in your coding. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: Doguhan intro Excella Consulting Company Tech Talk DC DC Full Stack Dev Summit Being a polyglot is great, but in practice it is very difficult What is true a polyglot developer? Deleting code Why would you want to delete code? Do more with less when it comes to code JavaScript Going back to the basics More code lends to more bugs and issues How does this relate to router-first architecture? Writing a book Need a road map before you star refining things Get a picture of the shape of the application and then start thinking ahead of time The importance of planning ahead when coding Agile Software Development Walking skeleton from the beginning Get to the first wrong answer as quickly as possible and fix it And much, much more!

Panel: Charles Max Wood Aimee Knight Joe Eames AJ O'Neal Special Guests: Orta Therox In this episode, the JavaScript Jabber panelists talk about the tool Danger with Orta Therox. Danger allows you to create cultural rules about your pole request workflow. They discuss what Danger is, how it works, and how it can help you to catch errors and speed up code review. Danger lets you erase discussions so that you can focus on the things that you should really be focusing on, like the code. They also compare Danger to other ways of doing test converge. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: What is DangerJS? Think of it as being on the PR level Provides an eval context Used on larger projects React, React Native, Apollo, and RxJS Experimenting with moving Danger onto a server Danger can run as a linting step Pre-commit hooks Prettier How do you use Danger on your own machine? Danger Ruby vs Danger JS NPM install How is using Danger better that other ways of test coverage? What kinds of rules can you write for this system? Can use with Ruby or JavaScript React Storybooks Retrospectives And much, much more!

Panel: Charles Max Wood Ward Bell Shai Reznik John Papa Joe Eames Special Guests: Doguhan Uluca In this episode of Adventures in Angular, the panel discusses doing more with less and router-first architecture with Doguhan Uluca. Doguhan works for a consulting company in Washington D.C. called Excella, where he is on the JavaScipt Special fleet and is a software development expert. He is also the founder of the Tech Talk DC meetup and organized the DC Full Stack Dev Summit last year. They talk about doing more with less with code and the importance of deleting code that is unnecessary. Also, they discuss router-first architecture and how it can be used to your advantage in your coding. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: Doguhan intro Excella Consulting Company Tech Talk DC DC Full Stack Dev Summit Being a polyglot is great, but in practice it is very difficult What is true a polyglot developer? Deleting code Why would you want to delete code? Do more with less when it comes to code JavaScript Going back to the basics More code lends to more bugs and issues How does this relate to router-first architecture? Writing a book Need a road map before you star refining things Get a picture of the shape of the application and then start thinking ahead of time The importance of planning ahead when coding Agile Software Development Walking skeleton from the beginning Get to the first wrong answer as quickly as possible and fix it And much, much more!

Panel: Charles Max Wood Aimee Knight Joe Eames AJ O'Neal Special Guests: Orta Therox In this episode, the JavaScript Jabber panelists talk about the tool Danger with Orta Therox. Danger allows you to create cultural rules about your pole request workflow. They discuss what Danger is, how it works, and how it can help you to catch errors and speed up code review. Danger lets you erase discussions so that you can focus on the things that you should really be focusing on, like the code. They also compare Danger to other ways of doing test converge. In particular, we dive pretty deep on: What is DangerJS? Think of it as being on the PR level Provides an eval context Used on larger projects React, React Native, Apollo, and RxJS Experimenting with moving Danger onto a server Danger can run as a linting step Pre-commit hooks Prettier How do you use Danger on your own machine? Danger Ruby vs Danger JS NPM install How is using Danger better that other ways of test coverage? What kinds of rules can you write for this system? Can use with Ruby or JavaScript React Storybooks Retrospectives And much, much more!

MJS 026 Chris Coyier This week’s episode is a My JavaScript Story with Chris Coyier. He is from the ShopTalk Show and CodePen. Listen to learn more about Chris! How did you get started programming? Chris has an atypical story. good time in life. He is from a small town in Madison, Wisconsin and had a very privileged upbringing. He went to a nice high school that had a programming elective in his high school. He took a class that taught Turbo Pascal and loved it. He had a lot of fun doing it and became set on doing it in college. How do you go from that to professional web developer? Have to give up on it first. He almost got a degree in university management computer systems, which was more management focused than programming focused. He tried and gave up on Java. He then tried graphic design and ended up getting a degree in that. He got into digital prepress at print jobs where he designed documents. It was fun but it was not as fun as being a “real programmer” would be in his mind. He then got a job at an agency doing web developer work. During this time JavaScript was not on his radar. How do you get from front-end work to building something like CodePen and starting a front-end podcast? He has made his career his hobby. He loves doing this stuff. When he was building websites for the first time he started CSS tricks. It became really fun. He grew it over ten years. Because it’s his career and hobby he got better over time. All of his time was spent helping friends, writing, or at conferences. He then decided to build CodePen with some of his friends. What are you working on these days? Chris wants to be careful not to be working on too many things at once. His top priority is CodePen, which he says is hard to keep up with what developers want there. The second priority is CSS tricks. He likes to publish quality articles for people to read. This third priority is his podcast. What’s the thing you’ve done that you’re the proudest of? CodePen is what has been so continually rewarding. This last month he is all money accounted for. He is really proud of CodePen because they made a company from nothing. He and his coworkers have made the podcast over a decade of growing an audience and it feels entrepreneurial. Charles’ most proud thing is the decision to go full time with his podcast for the last year and a half.
