7 years ago @notthetup It's one day before JSConf.Asia. I figured that a lot of people would be in Singapore during that period and it might be nice for them to also attend talk.js.
Thank you @realsoelynn 😊

6 years ago 150 coding challenges in 25 days. What I learned from attempting Advent of Code 2017, 2016 & 2015 all at one go.
Advent Of Code (AOC) is a series of small programming puzzles released released one per day over the Christmas period. I was introduced to AOC this year in 2017 and and was immediately hooked. I decided to challenged myself to complete not just this year's AOC but the two previous years all at one go. After spending 25 days of Christmas in programming hell, I emerged a true JavaScript Jedi. This talk shares my learning from this experience and tips for fellow JavaScript Jedi (and Ninja) to acing their next technical interview.

6 years ago @yosriady I received an email notification about your proposed talk on Alternative State Management with React and MobX but I don't see that here. Did I miss something?
I still have the details for the talk from the email, so if you'd still like to give your talk I'll update the talks list.

PhotoStats.io: How I Built My First Self-Tracking App in React Native (and what I learned)
Talk description
In early 2017, I started studying react native but without a specific project in mind. Towards the end of 2017, I got inspired to build a quantified self / self-tracking app about my photos. I wanted to know more about my photo data, my trends, and what this data my tell me.
The result was PhotoStats.io, which lets you track, visualize, and learn from your photo data.
In this talk I'll share what I've learned about react native, photo data, building cross-platform apps, some good libraries and resources, and, of course, tips for anyone else getting started using react native to build apps.
Presenter:
A short introduction of yourself:
"Recovering" Drupal, PHP and Open-Source Developer with an active interest in javascript, react native, data science and the quantified self. Blogs @ www.markwk.com. Founder / Operator @ Int3c.com
Duration: 20-30 min (but could be shorter or longer as needed)

6 years ago Title of your talk: Running Javascript on Microprocessors
Talk description: Many new wireless-embedded small ARM development boards have been coming out recently at really affordable prices. Many of these boards can run a stripped down javascript execution environment. This opens up development beyond less flexible, lower-level static and compiled languages increasing speed and accessibility for more developers. This talk will cover Mongoose OS and Espruino on an ESP32 development board and on a ESP8266 Development Board. We will go from setting up the development environment on a fresh board, where to download and build the Mongoose OS framework, flashing the board, and ultimately creating a simple temperature sensor and doorbell device running a web server over WIFI.
Presenter: @iainnash
Presenter's bio: A New-York based software engineering who enjoys building Internet of Things devices and tinkering with microprocessors in his spare time. Working at Oscar Health to make insurance more accessible.
Duration requested: 20min

6 years ago @yongjun21 @markwk @iainnash Hi speakers, thanks for submitting your talks. Please keep your talks to 20 min as we have 3 speakers.
Please also note that our usual venue at PayPal is not available this month (due to renovation) and we will need to change the venue. I will update the venue once I have confirmed a new location.
