• Test Driven Development with React

  • By Leon Bezuidenhout

  Test Driven Development emphasises quick iterations for your code. You won't code faster, but perhaps you will be more accurate.

  TDD has been around for a while and I have avoided it for most of my career. I decided for the month of October all code I write I will do TDD. The result was much more positive than I thought it would be and made me rethink how I code. This talk covers the testing pyramid, the importance of unit testing and the tools I use for testing React. As part of the talk I will work through a trivial example to demonstrate how to do TDD.

• Concurrent Mode

  • 

    By Mike Hazell

    @themikehazell

  An introduction to the use cases, patterns and gotchas in React's Concurrent Mode.

  After a brief explanation of what Concurrent mode is, we'll build an example application which progressively introduces each of the API's while showing what benefits they bring, the patterns we can leverage, and the gotchas to watch out for.
