This workshop covers the concepts of state management and its implementation with Angular. We’ll be exploring architectural patterns and how we can integrate ngrx to achieve effective and maintainable state management. You’ll be able to understand Observable based reactive patterns, actions, reducers, side-effects, single stores and how to handle immutability. Primed with new knowledge, you’ll be able to implement effective state management in Angular applications without thinking twice.

This workshop will be from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm. In this workshop, we will cover the entirety of unit testing with Angular. From testing the classes of components and services to dealing with pipes, templates, and even async code, this session will give you all the knowledge you need to unit test Angular like a boss. You will learn how to: Set up your testing environment. Write effective unit tests. Test Angular services, pipes, directives and components. Use Angular helper functions for dependency injection. Test asynchronous code. In addition to learning how to write tests, we will also discuss various forms of testing such as TDD, and discuss where a given method is appropriate. We will also cover how to keep your tests maintainable so that they can be worked on by other developers months and years later. What you'll need: Your laptop - you will be hands-on building and testing code. A basic understanding of Angular - the course does not teach Angular. A desire to make the world a better place (through testing). Presented by: Joe Eames

This workshop will be from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm. Webpack has found itself as a quintessential piece of building any high performance, scalable web application. But how do you use it? As a webpack maintainer, we have strived to provide great documentation, learning, and tutorials. But where do we go from there? I'm going to show you everything from the core concepts, all the way up to writing custom loaders, plugins, and understanding even how to contribute back to the organization! The class is in session, its time for webpack academy! Developing apps is the best. You get to feel like a superhero and build freaking awesome stuff for people. But you've got your kryptonite, that one part of your work that actually feels like work: CSS layout. You often wonder - somewhere between the thoughts of "oh this task will be easy" and "I want to die" - that there has to be an easier way to style things. Well, good news! For the first time in a looong time, CSS just got a major makeover, and it's called CSS Grid Layout. It's a new way to style your UI that's actually intuitive, simple, and easy to use. In this workshop, you'll learn how to use this powerful new tool, begin to see the world in terms of Grids and use your new skills to build a killer UI from a popular video game.
