ReactFoo Hyderabad

While improving front end performance includes a wide range of topics in itself, I will be talking about performance lessons learnt while building a react + redux web app. At the end of the session, you will have walked away with actionable items on how you can measure your app’s performance and improve it. Anyone who is comfortable with react + redux will feel right at home in this session.

Outline

Topics covered -
-> Optimizing Bundle Size
-> Improve initial load time with SSR
-> Data Fetching & Caching
-> Dealing with large lists
-> Make react do less work
-> Make redux do less work

-> Using Chrome Dev Tools to profile your react app

Speaker bio

I am the technical cofounder of Gymnage. I’ve built multiple web apps for my startup - all using React. Our main offering ran into some serious perf issues on tablets. That was a humbling experience. I had to understand a few react and redux quirks and make a few hacks to get some perf wins. I believe this experience has made me wiser and I’d love to share the experience with rest of the React community here in Hyderabad.
