S2 E17 - Future of JS

What this episode covers

Have you heard of Stackblitz? If not, have you ever clicked the button in the Angular docs to launch a demo of the code and you are instantly transported into an environment that is running the Angular code alongside a slick code editor that resembles VS Code? We're going to assume that you answered yes to both of these questions. If not, go check out stackblitz.com and start-up an Angular application to see just how fast and easy it is to create a demo application running in the browser. Stackblitz is building incredible tooling for developers to use in the context of the browser, and to do so, they are pushing the envelope of building a web application. So, how do they do it?In this episode of the Angular Show, we are thrilled to sit down with Eric Simons, the co-founder, and CEO of Stackblitz to discuss the future of JavaScript and to learn how the team at Stackblitz is building an OS in the browser. Crazy - we know! Join the panelists as they ask Eric just how they are going about this. As you might guess, they are leveraging web APIs that some of us have probably never touched, like WebAssembly, to accomplish this task.What is the future of JavaScript? None of us know for sure, but we can take a look at cutting-edge solutions like Stackblitz to get a glimpse into what the future might look like.Show notes:https://www.chromium.org/teams/web-capabilities-fuguhttps://stackblitz.com/v2Connect with us:Eric Simons - @ericsimons40Aaron Frost - @aaronfrostBrian F Love - @brian_loveJennifer Wadella - @likeOMGitsFEDAYFollow us onX: @DevLifePodcastX: @AngularShowBluesky: @theangularplusshow.bsky.socialThe Angular Plus Show and The DevLIfe Podcast are a part of ng-conf. ng-conf is a multi-day Angular conference focused on delivering the highest quality training in the Angular JavaScript framework.
