.NET
Do you know what developers do most of their day (except for surfing the internet)?
Writing code? WRONG!
They are debugging. The debugger is a powerful tool, but in this talk you'll learn tricks that will help find bugs in half the time and with less frustration. Because a happy developer is a productive developer.
This session will show you tools that will point to you to right direction and features you didn't know that are even there.

Node.js
The Web was always flat and all efforts to use effects and some interactivity to mimic a new dimension to the Web is commendable, but not always enough.
The relative recent possibility of exposing the power of the graphics cards to the browsers, opened a new door and now allows to transform the flat Web into a 3D Web.
Ranging from the raw WebGL, to free and commercial 3D viewers - let us explore why it might be the next big thing.

Architecture & design patternsRuby
What if there was a full-stack framework in Ruby that was focused on being lightweight, structurally pure and fun to use? There is! Say hello to Hanami. Hanami is a modern, full-stack, web framework for Ruby. You'll have an opportunity to see a different approach to approach MVC (Model, View, Controller) in Ruby. We'll be building a web application from scratch using the tools Hanami gives us.
Visualisation is an important step when trying to make sense of data. Proper presentation skills can lead to more interesting questions and better conclusions. R environment's visualisation capabilities are one of the main reasons if it’s popularity. During this talk, attendees will get introduced to different R visualisation techniques. The platform offers proper language constructions, data structures, powerful libraries and community support.
CareerManagement
A lot of dev teams are going remote now, but without the correct infrastructure and processes in place you may not be able to support those remote workers team members. During this session we’ll discuss some of the preparations you should make before bringing remote staff on board, as well as how to make them successful once they're there, including communication, documentation, and culture challenges.
E-commerce
Businesses spend years (and fortunes) building software projects, then slap on a price and hope for the best. This is a sure means to go broke.
This presentation will examine some real world pricing pages for famous (and not so famous) SAAS offerings and explain what mistakes are being made and how a few simple tweaks could lead to massive improvements in profitability.

Accessibility
Web forms can present obstacles to users when they have not been developed to be accessible and usable. These obstacles can be torn down by following techniques for labeling form controls, validating user input, handling multi page forms and WAI-ARIA. Screen reader demonstrations will be used to highlight these features. The session will allow you to improve the design and development of your web forms.
AccessibilityManagement
We're building more complex and more awesome JavaScript-powered user interfaces every day. But, are they accessible? If not, how do we make them that way? In this talk, I'll explore the basic concepts of accessibility and then how we, as designers and developers, can ensure our shiny, new pages and apps are as accessible as they are beautiful and functional.
Dev Environment
You've got a basic virtual machine setup, but want to take it to the next level?
In this talk, we'll cover advanced virtual machine management for teams, with Vagrant, including: basic VM-to-production philosophy, bootstrapping for everyone, managed Vagrantfile, tricks for multiple VMs, caching, packaging, and other Vagrant tips.

In this talk, I’ll demonstrate the engine for a Fortune Cookie Server (fortune cookies will be served!) The front end Single Page Application will stay the same, the backend Mongo database will stay the same, but the API engine will be represented in perl, python, ruby, php and node.
Architecture & design patternsPython
Async I/O is fashionable with good reason: its low per-connection overhead lets you scale an I/O-intensive workflow better than threads or processes. But there are drawbacks. I'll explain the pros and cons, show how they bit in a real-world project, and help you to weigh the options for your next project.
Ruby
Today, when building a web application, you very likely need to provide a web API. In Ruby, both web frameworks Rails or Sinatra are common options.
If you need something simpler and lighter than Rails but that doesn't require to reimplement a lot of common pieces, Hanami is a convenient and trendy option.
I'll present the reasons that pushed me to pick Hanami to develop a web API, and how to test and develop a web API with it.

Behat is a great tool when it comes to testing pages with javascript because it gives you a great base framework mostly when you use the Mink extensions. This talk will show the different challenges we had to solve around our SPA at Learning Bird and the kind of structure we had to adopt to create beautiful and readable tests.
JavaScriptPHP
The time of static or dynamically generated sites is long gone. Non-stop interaction with users is the new normal. However, polling with Ajax requests is processor intensive and cumbersome. Websockets allow you to interact with users in real-time without increasing system load. We'll go through the basics and see all the different options, illustrated with live examples.
Databases
Built mostly in Java, Cassandra is a powerful open source NoSQL database, based on the model of partitioned row store. This talk will provide general uses cases, Cassandra architecture, benefits, tools and integration with existing Java applications.

Le but de cette présentation est d'amener des solutions simples à mettre en place et permettant d'améliorer considérablement votre performance d'équipe.
Management
Laid off, made redundant, canned, dismissed, fired, sacked, terminated, given the axe, given the boot, the old heave-ho -- there are lots of ways to say it. However you choose to refer to it though, it isn’t enjoyable -- even less so when that person is you. Let's explore a subject that no one wants to and by doing so directly confront our fears and learn to be more rational when emotions run high.
Architecture & design patternsSecurity
Passwords are bad. We all know it, but we also know you're not going to build a service that doesn't use them - not if you like paying the rent. However, we can do a lot better. We'll take a whirlwind tour through the aspects of connecting people to your service, from generating passwords, not using passwords at all, creating users with one tap, identity providers, automatic cross-device sign-in, and password managers. Sign-in should be simple.
MobileManagement
J’ai travaillé durant 4 mois sur une application Ionic. C’est un framework très puissant mais dans lequel on peut rapidement se perdre. Je souhaite partager les outils et les techniques que nous avons mis en place avec le développeur pour travailler efficacement et sans perdre la tête: userflow chart, styleguide, documents techniques d’animations et spécifications de performance, etc., vous saurez tout.

Amazon Lambda is shaking-up Java server-side development. Now you can write services in the cloud without having to think about app servers or containers. This is revolutionary. This session will cover Amazon Lambda and some of the other services that will reduce the about of code and infrastructure you have to write and maintain.
Python
Django is an “all-in-one” web development platform. Built-in features include full templating technology, routing, and object-relational mapping. Using Django’s ORM capabilities frees you from having to write your own database access code, so you can focus the application you wish to build. The Django ORM can even create and manage the database for you! Learn how to create objects for ORM, and map properties to columns in your database.
Architecture & design patterns.NET
Reactive applications are designed to handle asynchronous events in a way that maximizes responsiveness, resiliency, and elasticity. Reactive Extensions (Rx) is a library that abstracts away the sources of events and provides tools to handle them in a reactive way.
With Rx, filtering events, composing event sources, transforming events, and dealing with errors all become much simpler than with traditional tools and paradigms.

JavaScriptNode.js
Bots and conversational apps give you the opportunity to bring your apps to your users right where they are. Users can interact with you via various messaging services, including text messages. Not only does this mean they don't need to install yet another app, they can access the information and services they want directly, without navigating a UI. This session will show you how to get a bot up and running quickly using Bot Framework.
Security
As developers we tend do a poor job of implementing cryptography and other security measures in our systems. Often the primitives used are out of date and overlook very subtle flaws. These mistakes lead to systems that are hopelessly insecure despite our perception that we’ve build an impenetrable fortress. Fortunately there are a few tools and techniques at our disposal that can ease some of the pain. In this talk we’ll explore some of the most
Architecture & design patternsPython
Come learn how to better communicate between Python services. We'll use simple-to-follow examples and go from a service with undocumented endpoints to one which has full docs and validation on requests. Learn how to use Swagger tooling for python, including the bravado (client) and pyramid_swagger (server) libraries. In the end, you'll (hopefully!) find nirvana and make the machines do all the hard work for you.
PerformanceRuby
Ruby is attractive because of how expressive and fun it is to write, not because of its speed. Ruby gets the job done most of the time. However, what happens when you need that extra speed boost? Now you can reach for Crystal. Crystal is a compiled, statically-typed language with Ruby-like syntax. You'll have a chance to see how easy Crystal is to install, how it compares to Ruby, and a chance to see how to convert a Ruby script into Crystal.
Architecture & design patternsHTML & CSS
CSS floats have been the primary way that we define web layout for almost the past decade. They’ve worked pretty well over the years but times are changing. flexbox is becoming the new norm for layout and solves some of the main gripes we deal with when using floats. Some of the new concepts may be a bit difficult to grasp in the beginning but in this talk we’ll focus on practical ways that flexbox is used when creating modern interfaces.
DatabasesDevOps
So what is a database and why can't I just put all my data into some sort of blob? This session will cover the basics of how relational databases work, where they are (and are not) efficient, how to best use them, and the steps to go from a novice to an intermediate user quickly. Very few developers have any database training and then wonder why the queries they write perform poorly. This session will provide you with a high level overview.
Tests & quality
The software industry has developed a number of tools to capture requirements through the years. This session will take a step back from the toolbox and examine the core benefits a project team needs from a tool, rather than the laundry list of features it might also provide. With that lens in place, attendees can re-evaluate ways to build shared understanding without dictating a process that crushes collaboration.
JavaScript
With WebGL you can build great graphics-heavy applications, but it’s a lot of things to grok: Vertices, Buffers, Shaders & much more!
If that kept you from playing with WebGL, this talk is for you. You’ll learn everything you need to conquer the CPU with JavaScript: Vertices, Buffers, Shaders and all the glue between them and you leave this talk with the ability to create 3D content on the web

Le monde analogique est dorénavant à votre portée!
Architecture & design patternsPHP
Separated layers are one of the fundamental principles of software design. Your framework is the topmost layer, and your business code should not depend on it. While we will touch a few package design basics, the focus is on how to actually *DO* it: Expose the user accounts in your model to your framework without depending on it. Separate form input validation from entities. Isolate ORM-specific code in bridges. And be pragmatic about it.

PHP's stateless execution model is still based on the mechanics of CGI: request in, response out. This means simplicity, but also significant overhead on each request. All other languages on the web now offer production-ready web servers implemented purely in each language. PHP is finally catching up with solutions like Aerys or PHP-PM, which promise tremendous performance gains and the potential for a few features Apache or Nginx cannot offer.
In 30 minutes, I'll quickly cover some tools and platforms that are worth considering in your next project no matter what it is. All are ready for large scale, million-user per day deployments. Some you may be familiar with and others you might not have considered and some you might not have heard of. Most will be worth looking up after the the talk finishes.

As an application starts to grow, the flexibility that inclined us to build a monolith vanishes. The once reliable system is now prone to errors, bugs leak to unexpected places and new features take a considerable time to be delivered. Spotify, Amazon and Netflix solved these problems moving to microservices, giving back productivity and confidence to developers and stakeholders. I want to share some guidelines that helped me do this transition.

PythonTests & quality
Writing tests is tedious. Rather than writing your own tests, you should get your computer to do it for you! Hypothesis is a Python testing library that lets you specify properties of your code that should hold, and it generates the data for you. This means that you get literally thousands of test cases with minimal effort. See how you can get better tests by writing fewer test cases!
Security
It happens even to tech giants: they get hacked and client databases get leaked. Let's look at what data is the most sensitive and what steps we can take to protect it, while still keeping all of the user experience intact. Come see why most web applications do passwords and credit card information wrong.

Symfony Components are the building blocks of the Symfony full stack framework. But they are just as useful to modernize your legacy applications step by step, and to introduce modern coding standards to projects. While getting to grips with the components and learning to use them standalone, a nice side effect of this talk is that it will give you a better insight into how Symfony full stack works as a framework.
Ruby
Make your Ruby on Rails app multi-lingual! I'll go over how to get started with translations using the I18n gem. We'll configure translations using a YAML file, determine a user's locale, specify default values for when a translation is not defined, and interpolate variables into translation strings. Throughout, we will see how the I18n gem improves the maintainability of view code while multiplying the size of our user base.
PythonSecurity
The CPython interpreter have seen a fair share of security incidents. As a core contributor and member of the security team I have been involved in fixing security bugs and hardening Python. You will learn about past vulnerabilities in Python's dict implementation and standard library modules, how to avoid common mistakes and recent improvements of ssl, hashlib and random number generator.
.NETMobile
There are many ways to share code between .Net/Xamarin applications running on different platforms, but what is the best way to deal with the platform specific code? In this session you'll learn how to use shared files, dependency injection, portable class libraries, and shared projects to isolate platform specific code from the re-usable shared code.

With dedicated engine for time-series data you can show useful dashboards for every team, do capacity planning or even monitor your app with anomaly detection algorithms. In this talk I’ll introduce core concepts for data gathering, stacks for processing metrics from PHP app, and techniques from collecting to anomaly detection.
Machine learningCloud Computing
One of the dimensions in the big data world is the velocity. Real-time pace introduces new challenges, especially when trying to apply advanced analytics solutions. Azure ML provides an easy and inexpensive way to use machine learning as a service. The talk will show how to use it when working with data streams for the predictive maintenance problem. It will present big data architecture that enables data ingestion, analysis and persistence.
Performance
Having trouble scaling your website? Is that new marketing campaign killing your performance? Are you using a framework or a CMS that causes too much overhead? Give Varnish a try.
Varnish is a reverse proxy that serves cached pages to your visitors instead of hitting the backend servers all the time. Cache is stored in RAM & there's a DSL that allows you to hook into your caching logic.
This is the quickest way to speed up your site/app/API

For many, reading on the mobile web is a slow, clunky and frustrating experience - but it doesn’t have to be that way. The Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) Project is an open source initiative that embodies the vision that you should be able to create mobile optimized content once and have it load instantly everywhere. We'll look at how to build complex pages using AMP, why they're fast, and how you can measure success.

PostgreSQL 9.6 is the latest version of PostgreSQL available, and the last one in the 9.x series. This talk will take a look at what new features are included in this major version, including things like phrase searching, multiple replication enhancements, freeze maps and parallel query,
Java & JVM languages
Depuis un certain temps vous entendez parler de Scala, en particulier pour les plateformes réactives et big data?
L’engouement pour ce langage augmente de plus en plus et vous vous demandez pourquoi?
Je vous propose quelques éléments de réponse dans ce talk ou je m’efforcerai de présenter le langage et son écosystème de la façon la plus objective que possible... oui promis :)

Around 2012 and 2013 MongoDB was the database of choice for many developers to start new projects, since it was the "coolest" database solution available. I want to show you how those decisions have had an impact on startups like Queue (where I work), and why we decided to leave MongoDB for good and transition to a relational database.
HTML & CSS
The term ‘responsive design’ has evolved over the past years to mean more than just fitting a site onto your phone’s screen. Responsiveness now caters to a wide range of needs and concerns, which isn’t always clear or easy to navigate. In this talk, we’ll explore multiple responsive concepts and techniques, their pitfalls and limitations, and explore a range of solutions, tips and tricks to help in the ways of responsive design.
DevOpsNetworks
Our job might be to build web applications, but we can't build apps that rely on networking if we don't know how these networks and the big network that connects them all (this thing called the Internet) actually work.
I'll walk through the basics of networking, then dive a lot deeper (from TCP/UDP to sockets, DNS and even OSPF, VRRP and BGP).
Prepare for an eye-opener when you see how much a typical app relies on all of these (and many more)
