Description

More and more enterprises are developing modern applications centered on Node.js. Key Node.js contributor Paul Savage asks, “What’s missing?” With no de facto reference architectures yet for full stack JavaScript apps, many enterprises are struggling to get repeatable success. Paul shares a warts-and-all dive into modern JavaScript development, covering npm, security, performance, and how projects like Node.js are being maintained.

This session is sponsored by NearForm.
