New Adventures in Responsive Web Design
With HTTP/2, Service Workers, Responsive Images, Flexbox, SVG, WAI-ARIA roles and Font Loading API now available in browsers, we all are still trying to figure out just the right strategy for designing and buildings responsive websites efficiently. We want to use all of these technologies and smart processes like atomic design, but how can we use them efficiently, and how do we achieve it within a reasonable amount of time?
In this workshop, Vitaly Friedman, editor-in-chief of Smashing Magazine, will be looking into a strategy for crafting fast, resilient and flexible responsive design systems by utilizing all of those wonderful shiny web technologies we have available today. We'll also talk about dealing with legacy browsers and will cover a few dirty little techniques that might ensure that your responsive websites will stay relevant, flexible and accessible in the years to come.

Использование File API в Конструкторе Яндекс.Карт.
Совсем недавно в Конструкторе Яндекс.Карт произошло большое обновление. Была добавлена возможность получать изображение карты в высоком качестве для полиграфической печати. Интересно это обновление тем, что это все происходит в прямо в браузере при помощи web спецификации File API. В докладе пойдет речь про практическое использование File API в конструкторе и про другие полезные кейсы использования спецификаций.

TauCharts and data visualization
Визуализация стала горячей темой, как только мир вошёл в эру больших данных. Однако тихая революция случилась 19 августа 1999 года с выходом книги Леланда Вилкинсона “Grammar of graphics” (GoG), в которой автор представил универсальную концепцию визуализации данных. “Taucharts” - графическая open source библиотека, основанная на принципах GoG и разработанная компанией Taucraft.

ES2015 in the browser: beyond the polyfillable
Some of the new, ES2015 features of the JavaScript language (including Proxies) can't be transpiled, polyfilled, or rewritten in ES5. Now that V8 and other JavaScript engines are nearing complete native ES2015 support, it's time to explore how to develop and ship applications that take full advantage of these features. We'll talk about the cost of transpiling code to ES5, the use cases of ES2015 features that can't be polyfilled, and how to ship code that takes advantage of the state-of-the-art, but still runs in older browsers.

Typography: from metal to pixels
Todays frontend-developers spend many hours learning about a wide range of JavaScript frameworks. This is why they almost always forget about the most important part— typography. The history and basics of typography may be helpful for frontend-developers who want to be able to make texts work. There are several interesting points in typography's history and laws that must be known, along with some specific CSS rules in real projects — that's about this speech.

Life of a pixel: Computer Graphics for JavaScript Developers
All we do in frontend development ends up as pixels on screen yet many people don't really know how a pixel goes from zeroes and ones in memory to bright colours on screen. This talk explains how that works and gives an introduction into the basic principles of 2D and 3D computer graphics, filtering and different techniques to make things look better. This can help you improve your rendering performance not only for games, but regular websites, too.

Forms are boring
Form design is a difficult UX task. Users walk through the fields, enter data in various formats using different controls. UX/UI designers invent plenty of new custom controls which our poor users have to puzzle out so that they can order pizza or pay for mobile phone. Life is not becoming easier. In addition, we do not take into account that most people still think a field is a place where a cow lives. In my speech I will tell about usability testing findings and real case studies in form design. No sh**t about labels placing and users interaction axis this time :)

Проектирование в тестировании
Как часто вам встречаются проекты без тестов? Как часто на собеседовании на ваш вопрос "а есть ли у вас тесты" вы слышите "да, у нас слой API покрыт тестами"? В то же время вам постоянно встречается слово TDD и вы много раз слышали, что так "надо" писать.
Для многих из нас начать писать код с тестами кажется сложным. Особенно, когда дело касается UI, браузеров, внешних сервисов. Часто не понятно, с чего же начать, что именно проверять, как поддерживать тесты, как успевать выпускать продукт, когда какие-то изменения влекут за собой ворох поломанных тестов и часы работы по их исправлению. Или наоборот: тесты прошли, а баги все равно проскакивают.
Мы поговорим не о TDD, а о проектировании самих тестов. Как их писать, на что обращать внимание, как организовать взаимодействие тестов между собой и с вашим кодом, чтобы на всем протяжении проекта они оставались полезными для вас, не задерживали разработку, приносили удовольствие и радость.
