🗣️ Talks

➡️ Robert Balicki - Data fetching in React
What is suspense for data fetching in React? Why does React's model make creating network requests during render so difficult? Why does (to the presenter's knowledge) no library besides Relay support this, despite its sheer convenience?
In this talk, Robert will discuss how React renders components (especially with regards to Suspense), and how to build a data-fetching library that functions correctly in light of those behaviors. Then, with all the pieces in place, we'll use a library, @boulton/react-disposable-state, to roll our own suspense-compatible data fetching!

➡️ Aaron Pavlick - Unifying Content and Conversations: Building React Sites on Yext
With a focus on unifying content and conversations, this presentation delves into the unique capabilities of using Yext Content and Pages to create a performant, statically-generated website. However, the power of Yext extends beyond static site creation. One of the intriguing features we'll explore is the potential to enhance user engagement through the addition of a chat interface. We'll showcase the practical steps and potential of incorporating the Yext Chat into your site using the Chat SDK, leveraging this powerful React component library to bring a more responsive, interactive chat feature to life on your static pages.

Please submit your proposals for this and future events, talks from 5 to 30 minutes + freeform open mic sessions available to arrange on the spot.
