JSJ 447: Using Javascript for Data Analysis and Data Science with Daniel Lathrop
Our guest is Daniel Lathrop, a freelance investigative data journalist and educator, and formerly a newspaper reporter and Professor of Journalism and Media informatics at the University of Iowa. On this show, Daniel describes how JavaScript is a great choice for doing data analysis and data science, potentially even more so than other languages which are often used for this purpose, such as Python and R. Daniel also provides information about lots of useful tools and techniques to use in this context.SponsorsThe Complete Software Developer’s Career Guide – Grab a Copy TodayCacheFlyPanelAJ ONealAimee KnightDan ShappirSpecial GuestDaniel LathropLinkshttps://daniel.buzz/PicksAimeeForecasting at ScaleDan Shappirhttps://www.data-forge-notebook.comAJPropaganda in Nazi GermanyDaniel Lathrophttps://www.data-forge-notebook.comhttps://www.claudiajs.comhttps://js4ds.org/Follow JavaScript Jabber on Twitter > @JSJabberSpecial Guest: Daniel Lathrop.

JSJ 445: Augmented Reality for Mobile Browsers with Connell Gauld
Connell has been working on Universal AR, a cross-platform Augmented Reality kit for Mobile Browsers delivering native-level performance using only JavaScript (and a bit of WASM under the hood). We talk about what AR actually is, some of its use cases, as well as the fascinating details as to how the Zap.works team is delivering near native performance and accuracy without IR, LiDAR, or any other of the common advanced AR sensors - just the good ol' phone camera and advanced Computer Visual trickery.SponsorsScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutThe Complete Software Developer's Career Guide - Grab a Copy TodayDo you code in .NET?

JSJ 443: All About InertiaJS with Jonathan Reinink
The panel talks with Jonathan Reinink about his new library, IntertiaJS. InertiaJS is a tool that allows you to create a monolith server rendered site, but where you write your own custom back end, and then use a front end framework like React, Vue, or Svelte. We discuss how Intertia works at a very granular level, how it compares to tools like Next.js and Nuxt, why monoliths are better than using APIs, how Interita handles authentication and form submissions, and much more.PanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightSteve EdwardsGuestJonathan ReininkSponsorsScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutReact Native Remote Conf 2020LinksTurbolinks PicksJonathan Reinink:Follow Jonathan on Twitter > @reinink, WebsiteInertia.js - The Modern MonolithLost in SpaceAimee Knight:Our AWS bill is ~ 2% of revenue.

JSJ 441: The Present and Future of JavaScript Bundling and Delivery with Yoav Weiss
Yoav Wiess is a Developer Advocate at Google on the Chrome team, and also co-chair of the W3C Performance Working Group. In this episode Yoav explains how JavaScript resources are currently being delivered to browsers, and limitations and downsides with these approaches. He then describes a proposal for an advanced JavaScript delivery method that addresses these limitations. When this proposal is implemented, it will enable much more efficient download of JavaScript into browsers, boosting Web performance. This is a public proposal, and Yoav invites the community to participate in the standardization process.PanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightSteve EdwardsDan ShappirGuestYoav WeissSponsorsScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutReact Native Remote Conf 2020LinksJSJ 434: Understanding and Using ES Modules in Node with Gil TayarPicksYoav Weiss McCumskey:Follow Yoav on Twitter > @yoavweiss Scroll to Text Fragment - Chrome Platform StatusAJ O’Neal:Follow AJ on Twitter > @coolaj86The Beatles: Abbey Road(great dynamic range) (note: the title I meant to use)Deno | webinstall.devDan Shappir:"Inspired by @Apple's #WWDC2020, I quickly built WashOSCharlie Gerard 🏳️🌈 (@devdevcharlie) / TwitterThe Beatles: a musical appreciation and analysis by composer, Howard Goodall CBESteve Edvards:Going Full Static - NuxtJSAimee Knight:Teach Yourself Computer ScienceFollow JavaScript Jabber on Twitter > @JSJabber Special Guest: Yoav Weiss.

Join the 30-DAY CHALLENGE: "You Don't Know JS Yet"Alex Russell works for Google on the Chrome team and is the lead of Project Fugu which focuses on Web Capabilities and Progressive Web Apps. Alex leads the JavaScript Jabber panel in a discussion of writing less JavaScript and focusing on performance and functionality on low bandwidth connections and low performance phones.
