# Talks



This repo contains talks I've given and proposals that have been

rejected. I think both contain interesting data for others who are

trying to speak more at conferences. The content here is not intended

to be complete, but rather a useful repo for my own organization as

well as a look into proposals which are accepted/rejected and the

talks they develop into.



- **PDFs** can be found in [./pdfs](./pdfs/). They are named by `talkTitle_location_year`.

- **Source** for the PDFs can be found in [./packages](./packages/).

- **Proposals** are organized

  in [proposals/submissions.org](./packages/proposals/submissions.org)

  and detailed

  in [proposals/proposals](./packages/proposals/proposals/).



# GopherCon UK: Going GraphQL



[video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdURVezcdcw)



This talk covers GraphQL from a Golang perspective, covering REST,

GRPC, and finally GraphQL. We introduce a Golang library for building

GraphQL servers, [gqlgen](https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen)



# GothamGo: From JS to Go



[video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S1t0jhktqI)



How and why should JS engineers consider moving to Golang.



# QCon: SDL First Products



[infoq](https://www.infoq.com/presentations/graphql-sdl)



[video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTZkDYZXh14) of a cut-down

version of the talk given at an Apollo meetup.



Talking about how to drive API development forward with the data model

as the source of truth using the GraphQL Schema Definition

Language. How to use GraphQL and its SDL to separate back-end

from front-end development so they can proceed independently, and some

of the limitations GraphQL has.



# Static Sites Through SPAs and GraphQL



[PDF](./pdfs/static-sites-through-spas-and-graphql_forwardjs-2017.pdf)



After using Jekyll style static site generators for years and

contributing to [Gatsby](https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby) I found

that what I wanted to do required a completely separate project. Thus

[Low Earth Orbit](https://github.com/superawesomelabs/leo) was

born. This talk details the motivations behind LEO including



- Reframing static site generation as a Universal Rendering problem

- Using GraphQL to enable powerful new approaches to Atom feeds, pages

  with multiple different kinds of data, and PWAs.

- Using any UI technology (React, Preact, Inferno, Angular) instead of

  being tied to a template language or specific technology.

- Reusing components built from design systems to build static sites.



# Demystifying GraphQL Clients



[PDF](./pdfs/demystifying-graphql-clients_react-amsterdam-2017.pdf)



This talk covers GraphQL from the client's point of view. We start

with plain strings and introduce the varied facets of a GraphQL query

including Fields, Fragments, Arguments, etc. Then we move into why you

would want to use a GraphQL client like Relay or Apollo and dive into

concrete examples to reveal how Apollo 1.0 and Relay Modern enable

advanced use cases such as optimistic UI and prefetching.
