How I taught LLMs how to Svelte

It's undeniable that LLMs are slowly (and not even that much) but steadily changing the way we write code. But they have a problem: once you start using something outside their training set, the performance quickly degrades. Releasing Svelte 5 (with a pretty big syntax rewrite) r

Whether you’re building devtools or building APIs for your own team to use, nailing developer experience is essential. In this in-depth talk, Daniel will talk about designing developer APIs, improving DX and writing code that’s both maintainable and increases developer productiv

TMCP: a new way to build MCP servers in TS

The typescript SDK provider by the official model context protocol organization is nice and has a lot of features baked in. But it also has a few problems that makes it difficult to use with modern frameworks. TMCP is a brand new alternative sdk, fully featured with an aim to a l

Unpacking bundling

JavaScript represents a big part of page weight - and optimising for performance often requires trimming or optimising the bundle - albeit imperfectly. At the same time, bundlers have never been more important in full-stack JS frameworks. In this session we’ll be rethinking how b

Functional Domain Modeling with Gleam

This presentation demonstrates how Gleam's powerful type system and functional programming paradigm excel at domain modeling within Domain-Driven Design (DDD). It showcases Gleam's ability to create highly accurate domain representations through structs to represent data, union
