One thing that's always excited me about Fluent Conference, something you don't find at many web conferences, is the slate of 2-day training workshops offered in the days leading up to the main conference. This year, the workshops will be June 11-12, 2018. It's one thing to attend a conference and hear a variety of inspiring talks from some of the most influential, leading practitioners in our web industry. But, I think an aspect that really sets Fluent Conference above the rest is that you can dig in and learn valuable topics that directly relate to your job, while you're at the conference. These teachers are unquestionably best-in-class from all over the world, and you have access to them right at Fluent Conference!
I wanted to take a moment to highlight a few of the class topics that I think you should check out.
Mastering progressive web apps
Taught by: Maximiliano Firtman
If you've paid much attention to web and mobile development lately, you'll instantly know that Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are the hottest of topics. Max is an expert trainer with decades of experience, and he's here to take you through the ins-and-outs of this exciting trend in user-first web development. He'll cover Service Workers, Push Notifications, and more. (LEARN MORE)
Learning GraphQL, React, and Apollo
Taught by: Alex Banks and Eve Porcello
This workshop is defining the cutting edge of web application architecture in 2018, taking you from the backend (Apollo) to the frontend (React) of implementing GraphQL in your applications, consolidating and optimizing your API request/response cycles more robustly than ever before! Eve and Alex recently wrote the definitive book on this topic: "Learning GraphQL", so you know you can trust that you're learning from the best. (LEARN MORE)
Debugging Frontend Performance
Taught by: Tim Kadlec, Gareth Hughes, and Michael Gooding
One of the most important and exciting things to happen in the evolution of Fluent Conference over the last couple of years is a renewed embrace of the profound importance of Frontend performance. We all know that the promise of the web can never be truly realized if it can't be experienced by people for being too slow or too expensive to load. That's why this workshop is so vital to the mission of Fluent. Tim, Gareth, and Michael are top experts in this field, and they're ready to help you get right to the heart of performance optimizations for your applications. This workshop is in demand every single year, so don't miss this one -- it will sell out! (LEARN MORE)
That's Not All!
That's just a taste of the training workshops available. We also have acclaimed teacher Brian Holt's ever-popular "A complete introduction to React" course. Bringing together two of the most popular web technologies, Yakov Fain will teach us about "Developing Angular web apps with TypeScript". And last but not least, Brian Sletten brings us one of the topics I'm most excited by lately: "WebAssembly Deep Dive".
I think you can agree with me, that's a really powerful lineup of 2-day training sessions. If you've been trying to convince your boss to send you to a conference this year, why not show them this article and point out that at Fluent Conference, you don't just get amazing talks, but deep and directly applicable training workshops!
