Asynchronous Frontiers in JavaScript–Domenic Denicola, Code 2015
Our Front End Engineering and JavaScript focussed conference, Code, has been taking place in Melbourne since 2012, and last year’s event featured some amazing presentations, including Alex Russell kicking off the “progressive apps” revolution, the video of which we featured here a few months back.
Another of our favourites was Domenic Denicola’s in-depth look at the state of asynchronous JavaScript. So, to get yourself up to speed with this increasingly im[ortant aspect of Front End Engineering, set aside some time for Domenic’s fantastic presentation.
Code returns for 2016 in both Sydney and Melbourne in late July/early August. If you develop for the Web, and work with JavaScript, we promise it will make you better at your job.

Wawrick Cox showed us how everyone’s favourite debugging tool, the console
can do much more than just log
