TDD is a technique used to write unit tests. They discuss what exactly unit testing is, the benefits of it, and why you would want to use it to test your code. Shai then discusses what TDD is, why you would use it, the benefits of it, and how you can get started using TDD in your own code.

This is a conference that is focused on front-end frameworks, such as Angular, React, and Ember. Frameworks are such a central piece to front-end development, and so this conference is going to be detailed towards people who are working with multiple types of frameworks or want to learn about new frameworks. One of the biggest goals of this conference is to help end framework wars and bring people from different types of frameworks together.In particular, we dive pretty deep on:What is the Framework Summit?How is this conference different from other general JavaScript conferences?Broad conference- includes many different frameworksGood amount of content on each frameworkWhat will the experience be like at the conference?Higher chance of finding a talk you’re interested in2-day conferenceSingle-track and multi-track daysEmber, Knockout, View, Elm, Angular, and ReactOct 2-3, 2018 in Park City, UtahGreat for meeting people and making connectionsComparing the frameworksFostering communityHow similar each of the frameworks areGoals of the conferenceFramework warsWhat do you get out of this conference?Meeting people from different communitiesAnd much, much more!Links:  LinodeAngular BootcampLootCrateFramework Summit@FrameworkSummitPicks:CharlesGameVicePipeDriveView and React Podcasts Coming SoonReact SummitJoeReady Player One by Ernest ClineSimon Jones (Narrator on Audible)ShaiFighting Perfectionism BlogPostTony RobbinsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/adventures-in-angular--6102018/support.
