VueJS [1]: The last front-end framework you will ever need

9:00 AM MDT

VueJS is the new contender for 'best front end framework' and is running a very close second place to React in popularity amongst knowledgable developers. It is gaining mindshare and has incredible momentum, all for very good reasons!

Join us for this introductory, full day workshop in which we fully explore everything that makes VueJS the last framework you will ever learn … because you won't ever want to use anything else again!

Upon completion, you will be armed with the skills and knowledge to create sophisticated VueJS components that:

• Define and use dynamic data constructs
• Dynamically update data views, content and styling based on realtime changes to data
• Animate transitions between views as well as when elements are added and removed from the view
• Define and dynamically invoke event handlers generated by UI elements
• Use Vuetify: amazing, mature and visually appealing UI widget library based on Material Design
• Install, configure and use the Vue Router.
• Install, configure and use Vuex to provide centralized application data management a la Redux

We will also explore deployment options and productionization of your application.

I look forward to sharing this amazing new contender in the front-end SPA framework space!

Angular Architectures: A roadmap for the hearty traveller

9:00 AM MDT

There is no doubt that Angular is the titan of modern, Javascript frameworks. That made it easier for you to convince the powers-that-be to let you select Angular for your project. You've done a small but successful POC and now your 'big' project has been green lighted to kick off next month. Your team is jazzed but as you start to plan out the real work, you begin to realize that there are many aspects inherent to large Angular projects that have no 'out of the box' answers.

Stack overflow can only contribute 'it depends' answers that leave you more confused than before you read them. And now the panic starts to seep in, killing your buzz. Never fear! In this session, we will explore a variety of ways to architect your project and structure your code. We will look at the pros and cons of each option and discuss when trigger points for choosing each. This session is applicable to all versions of Angular and AngularJS.
