Piotr Maliga

"Angular is not that bad"

Curious why developers are giving Angular another chance? In this talk, we’ll explore the latest updates – like standalone components, faster builds, and cleaner architecture – that have completely transformed the framework. Come see how modern Angular might just surprise you and win back your developer heart!

Timofei Iatsenko

"Internalization with LinguiJS"

In this talk, I’ll share what makes a good internationalization system and how LinguiJS — the library I maintain — approaches these challenges. Even if you decide to use a different solution, you’ll walk away knowing what to look for and how to avoid common i18n pitfalls.

BIO

I’ve been working in software development for over 13 years, mostly with JavaScript and TypeScript. I’m a frontend tech lead by day and, in my spare time, I build developer tools — from transpiler plugins and codemods to static analysis utilities. I’ve contributed to projects like Babel and NestJS, and since 2022, I’ve been a maintainer of the LinguiJS library.

Mikołaj Bogucki

"Beyond Video Calls: A Practical Introduction to WebRTC"

In this talk, we’ll look into the WebRTC – what it is, how its APIs work, and why it’s more than just video chat tool. We’ll explore unconventional uses like peer‑to‑peer databases, real‑time data sharing, and even distributed systems built entirely in the browser. If you’ve ever wanted to quickly create an app but didn’t want to bother with hosting a backend and a database see how tools built on top of WebRTC might be the right solution for you.
