Review process:

Proposals will be filtered and shortlisted with reviews from JSFoo speaker alumni.

To expedite the decision on your proposal, include the following with your submission:

  1. Add links to videos/slide decks if your talk is at an advanced stage of articulation.
  2. If you are presenting a new idea, for which you want review and mentorship, explain problem statement and the key learnings in greater detail.
  3. In general, submit your proposal early so that we have more time to iterate. You can always edit your proposal after submitting the first version.

JSFoo’s policy is to showcase talks where the insights are free for participants to take back and apply to their work. If you are referring to a proprietary technology for solving a web application development problem, consider picking up a sponsored session.

Memory leaks in front-end JavaScript

JavaScript ecosystem has exploded in a short span of time. Libraries has made it so much easier for developers to scaffold a whole web app and extend their app on top of it. JavaScript’s dynamic nature has also given developers a lot of leeway to not care about memory leaks and quickly build a scalable app. But is the app really scalable if it has multiple leaks spread across the codebase?
