ReactEurope is coming back on 23-24 May 2019 to bring you the best and most passionate people from the very core team to the coolest people from the community we love.
After changing the way we think about state management in JavaScript applications, the way we write native mobile apps with React Native, how we interact with remote data with GraphQL or even how we manage CSS, the React community keeps innovating and its ecosystem growing.
At this conference, you will learn how new projects such as ReasonML will bring web and mobile React Native apps to the next level and how projects such as React Native Web, React Primitive and Expo make it easy to write, deploy and share code on all platforms quickly. The conference aims to give talks that inspire and explore new futuristic ideas dealing with all the techs we enjoy from the React ecosystem such as React.js, React Native, GraphQL, Relay, Universal apps, ReasonML, Webpack, inline CSS and more.
ReactEurope is also a great occasion to socialize, meet new people and old friends, hack together, taste delicious food and have fun in the beautiful city of Paris.
Join us at ReactEurope Conf to shape the future of client-side, mobile and universal applications!

Developers interested in GraphQL can come to this workshop and learn how to build full-fledged and full stack React apps with GraphQL using an open source stack. Unlike your typical GraphQL workshop, this one will also take you through taking care of the backend to fully understand how a Fullstack GraphQL project works, thanks to the open source serverless GraphQL Engine that will be used though, you won’t be spending too much time either writing server code and will be able to focus on your React app.
We’ll be covering the following topics:
GraphQL basics
Set up a GraphQL backend with Hasura
Using GraphiQL to explore and test your GraphQL API
Making your IDE (Atom/VsCode) ready for GraphQL with autocomplete and linting
Setting up a GraphQL client with Apollo
Fetching and rendering data in your react app with GraphQL queries
Inserting data with GraphQL mutations
Updating, deleting data with GraphQL mutations
Realtime GraphQL I - Building a realtime UI with live-queries over GraphQL subscriptions
Realtime GraphQL II - Reacting to events with GraphQL subscriptions
Setup authentication and access control to secure your GraphQL APIs
Bonus content: Running complex business logic with serverless and capturing asynchronous output with GraphQL subscriptions
By the end of the workshop, developers will have increased their knowledge & will be able to build out full-fledge and full-stack web applications by using their existing React and JavaScript skill set with easy to use open source serverless backend and database.

React-spring is a popular React animation library that explores physics based UI animation. This talk will be about the state of React animation in general, the methods and techniques employed, the journey we took with react-spring, and how Reacts new hooks feature can change the way animation is supposed to work for the foreseeable future. Animated hooks can mend the gap between the declarative and the imperative and express intent more clearly, which has big implications on not only the moving thing itself but also with how we combine it with all the other things going on around it, from the data-model to user interaction.

How WordPress built its own controlled “RichText” component, used as a building block to create its brand new visual editor experience. We use a custom internal data structure separating text and formatting rather than the DOM as state, in order to make the data easy to search and manipulate. We take advantage of React to make the DOM updates. Features such as formatting, inserting objects, search/replace, input rules, custom spell checking, autocomplete, footnotes, etc. become very easy to implement thanks to this structure and its API, which is battle tested with millions of users and WordPress’ ecosystem of plugins.
The talk will include an introduction, explaining how we built WordPress’ visual editor as a whole and how we approached data and serialisation of what we call “blocks”, to see the bigger picture. The use of the “contenteditable” attribute is very different from any other editor. Rather than using it on the whole editor, we only use it on the smallest parts possible.
Socialize, have some coffee or other drinks.
Revery is a high-performance, React-inspired, native application stack built on top of the Reason programming language. This talk will explore how Revery, along with Reason, enable you to leverage your ReactJS skills to build “totally native” applications. We’ll discuss the motivation behind Revery, explore the technology stack, and showcase the native Reason toolchain. We’ll dive into what “totally native” means - and how it differs from React Native. We’ll also highlight several other developments in the “totally native” React space.

Writing UI that can be accurately translated often comes with tradeoffs. If the text is sufficiently complicated, engineers have to take great pains (write conditionals, which are often error-prone) to ensure it is accurately rendered in other languages. Additionally, engineers are often either required to (a) keep strings separate from UI, or (b) keep translatable text simple enough to be extracted from UI source.
Fbt is an explicit markup language that tackles complexity and keeps UI text bundled with the relevant source code. This has the added benefit of keeping UI source self-documenting. This markup is parsed at build-time with text collected and sent to translators. The framework enables engineers to write text that would normally be tedious and error-prone in a succinct and accurate way.

Security and privacy are more important than ever in modern apps yet still continue to be an afterthought during the development and test cycles. Concepts around authorization, signing, and fine grained access control can be tackled and modern patterns such as GraphQL give us powerful tools to accomplish these requirements. This session will give details on lessons learned and solutions the AWS Amplify team encountered over the past year when working with customers building applications, and the differences implementing across React and React Native.
Forms are an ubiquitous element in the web. Most of web ecosystem tackled this subject years ago (Rails, Symfony, …), however, what about the JavaScript (especially SPA) ecosystem?
While most of current solutions (redux-form, Formik) provides full-features and widely used solutions, we are gonna focus on “typed forms”.
In a JavaScript ecosystem being more and more “typed” with the expansion of both GraphQL and TypeScript, why not take advantages of typed data? “Typed-data” means, no more duplicated logic between the back-end and the front-end (fields list, validation, etc).
We will explore an alternative way to manage forms using types and GraphQL.
