SPA application development for .NET developers
You are a .NET engineer and you get tasked to construct a JavaScript based SPA for your next project, what do you do?
What if I told you there is a JavaScript framework that would make you feel just at home?
With first class TypeScript support, enabling strict typing, classes and interfaces. That uses convention over configuration, so that you don't have to write any framework cruft, just focus on your application logic. Which uses standards based syntax, enabling your team to learn pure HTML and TypeScript that's fully framework agnostic. With dependency injection and composition being central concepts, helping you keep code base clean and testable. With a reactive binding system where a XAML or WPF developer will feel at home straight away.
Deliver secure, robust and fast web apps with Azure Front Door
It used to be Azure Web Apps that was the only hosting alternative on Azure. To be more performant, we started using CDN's. For sites with high traffic we started using the Azure Load Balancer and later Azure Application Gateway. To grow globally there were solutions including Azure Traffic Manager.
Today there are better solutions, so join me in a session where we have a look at how to handle scale, security and speed when going global with the Azure Front Door Service.
Deliver super performant SPA's with Azure
You have built your app in the latest, shiniest, JavaScript framework - now what?
It used to be Azure Web Apps that was the only hosting alternative on Azure. Now that has changed with static file hosting in Azure Storage. But how do you use a CDN, can we leverage Azure API Management or the Azure Front Door Service?
Aurelia 2, learn all about the new hotness!
Join me for a session to learn about the next version of Aurelia! I'll discuss the design decisions and reasoning behind version 2. We'll have a look at what's new, what's changed and what's improved. If you already have Aurelia applications in production, we'll have a look at the best way of lifting them to Aurelia 2.
Serverless Web - Azure Static Web Apps
Web site as a service, is more or less what Azure Static Web Apps is offering. With great developer ergonomics, speedy deploys and a stunning price point - it's a great offering for smaller projects.
Azure Static Web Apps is a service where you can host your static web sites, supporting sites produced in everything from plain HTML to Blazor to full fledged JavaScript frameworks such as Vue, React or Aurelia.
Join me as we dive into the features of the service, such as the CI/CD deployment with GitHub actions, creating an Azure Functions based api, securing routes with the built in Auth handling and setting up a custom domain.
gRPC and Azure
For years we have heard the sirens song of how gRPC will improve our microservice communication. As a large open source project, with many implementations for all our favorite languages, it feels like a given in todays fractured service landscape. But how well suited is it to run in the public cloud? And can we use it for web sites or is it only for server to server communication?
Join me for a session where we look at the history of gRPC, what the pros and cons from a developer standpoint are. Where we have a look at what the service support for gRPC in Azure looks like right now and in the future and also check out a few cool demos!
Web + Azure = 💖
It doesn't matter if it's a small internal app, a well-renowned e-com, or a multi-market mega app. There are good hosting alternatives for all web apps in Azure. Virtual machines, container-based systems, SAAS, or serverless - there are options for all preferences. Join me for a whirlwind tour of all the ways we can host our web apps in Azure. Afterward, your head will be spinning but you'll be able to give out Azure web hosting advice in your sleep!
Aurelia2 - Hyper-productivity for the web
Tired of fidgeting around with complex build systems. Tired of web frameworks forcing you to learn new proprietary syntax and complex make-up solutions to simple problems?
Then this session is for you! Join me and learn about how to become hyper-productive writing web apps with Aurelia 2.
We'll have a look at the new super simple routing, the standards-based syntax. I'll show how easy it is to extend your app with pages and components when the framework keeps out of the way. And we'll have a look at the powerful reactive binding system that will make you rethink all your complex state-handling solutions.
Web development on Windows done right
Are you into web dev and using a Windows machine? Are your colleagues and friends mocking you for how slow it seems compared to their Macs? Is it really meant to be like that? Isn't there anything that we can do as Windows-based developers to speed up our workflow?
Actually, there is! And not just one thing... There are actually a few tricks that we can utilize to make our developer workflow faster!
We can for example use the new Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to improve web dev tooling speed. And use containerization (Docker, Podman) to help us with our local development. And in some cases, it can even help out with the CI/CD builds of our large web apps!
Join Andreas Wänqvist, an avid web developer with a Windows machine, for a session where he shows you how to make web development on Windows better. :)
Web on Azure - the easy way
Need a fast and simple way to get your web app into the cloud? Want cheap webscale hosting that is still super simple? How about Azure static web apps? And yeah, is not just for static content!
Have a hosted web app that needs to scale to thousands of users? No worries, Azure App Service got you covered!
Join Andreas Wänqvist, an avid web developer with a keen eye for Azure, for a session where he shows you how to make web development on Azure fast and simple.
