This workshop is called 'Pure JavaScript Web Components' and will be hosted by Dylan Beattie.

It's a two day, in-depth, hands-on workshop about building interactive web components using modern JavaScript. No frameworks, no libraries; learn how to create fast, responsive user experiences, built with 100% native code.

In this two-day workshop, you’ll find out how to design, build and deploy custom web components built with pure native JavaScript. Over the course of the workshop, attendees will build several web components, from a simple “Hello World” app to a Tetris-style game implemented entirely as a custom element built with HTML and JavaScript.

A little bit about Dylan...

Dylan Beattie created his first web page in 1992. With nearly 25 years’ experience as a professional developer, he’s worked on everything from static websites to distributed microservice architectures. Dylan is a Microsoft MVP and the creator of the Rockstar esoteric programming language, and he’s presented talks about technology and software development at conferences and events all over the world.

Dylan’s been building web applications using JavaScript since the late 1990s. His public JavaScript projects include iPuzzler, an web component for publishing crossword puzzles on the web, and Satriani, a JavaScript interpreter for Rockstar.
