JavaScript @ Ocado

Our partners from Ocado Technology we are always looking at the latest technology and where they find there are uses they include them in the projects. This poses a number of challenges - both technical and nontechnical. In these talks Ocado Technology look at how they manage these challenges focused mainly on the use of JavaScript in their eCommerce platform.

Choosing the right tools for the job - or maybe I'll just bring the whole (JavaScript) toolbox? (Szymon Maj)

JavaScript evolves, new frameworks popping up all the time - if you want to keep up with the trends you might end up migrating to a new framework each week, or worse, using three frameworks on the same page. Rather than theorizing which js library is the best, we will analyse how different requirements affected our choices during our work on an e-commerce platform and how we can use that experience to make an informed choice in the ever-changing world of JavaScript.

Large scale JavaScript for [geographically dispersed] teams (Marwan Butrous)

JavaScript is dynamic. It is very relaxed about code style and structure, enabling teams to adopt design patterns that work for them. Coordinating consistency across a codebase and ensuring everyone is up to date with the status of a project in a multi team setting can quickly become challenging, even more so when teams are geographically dispersed.

This talk is about our experience working together on a project as geographically dispersed teams, and the tools and practices we put in place to keep everyone in the loop.
