Live Panel Discussion: A View Into React

Join us for an exclusive live Q&A session with one of the most influential voices in the React ecosystem — Kent C. Dodds! Whether you’re just getting started with React or you're deep into advanced hooks and performance patterns, this is your chance to ask Kent anything.

Kent C. Dodds

We are React-ing wrongly

Everyone thinks he/she knows how to use React well, me included. But even if React docs are only 90% completed, how can we be so sure we understand all the use cases each React feature is for? This is not a talk about best practices. It's about findings and lessons learned after working and debating about using React daily.

UI Engineering for the AI age

In this talk, we dive deep into how to create high-quality user interfaces using React in the age of AI: specifically, how do we deal with incoming streams of data? How do we render partial JSON without parsing errors? How do we curate a dynamic web page experience with React Suspense and server components? From this talk, developers will have high-confidence answers to all of these questions and learn powerful patterns for creating robust user interfaces that use AI tastefully.

Using React with Inertia.js for fast frontend development

You might be asking yourself, what even is InertiaJS? And how could it possibly make front-end development faster? Well lucky for you, this talk will cover what Inertia is, the benefits of using it, and new features offered in Inertia 2.0. As well as how using it can significantly speed up the development process.

Building Accessible Web Applications in React

Accessibility often gets treated as a last-minute checklist item—but retrofitting it at the end of a project is painful, error-prone, and unsustainable. In this talk, we’ll explore how to bake accessibility in from day one. We'll cover key accessibility concepts every React engineer should know, and walk through real-world code examples that demonstrate how to build inclusive interfaces without slowing down your workflow. Whether you're shipping forms, modals, or complex interactive components, you'll leave with practical strategies to make accessibility a first-class citizen in your codebase.
