Optimizing Browser Performance

This talk was an overview of how me and my colleagues at Alaris Prime helped optimize page load performance on Aditya Birla’s abof.com. I spoke about some of the major factors that affect time to first paint for a web page, and included a hands-on demonstration of how to use Chrome Developer Tools to discover performance problems.

Organized and hosted by the good folks at Ajency.in in Goa.

React in Depth for JavaScript Developers

In this hands-on workshop, I walked the participants through building a SoundCloud client using React. The workshop was targeted towards experienced developers, so I didn’t spend much time on the basics of the library. Instead, we jumped straight into writing code.

Organized by Alaris Prime and hosted by Jaaga.
