S1 E18 - Women in Tech
In this episode, Kseniya Lifanova from Upstate Interactive joins panelists Aaron Frost, Alyssa Nicoll, Brian Love, and Shai Reznik to share her insights on Women in Technology. Kseniya's background is in business and finance, and after about 7 years in accountancy and finance, she found her passion for technology.She attended an introduction to web development night-school and fell in love with building things. But, one of the first things she noticed in tech, was that it was mostly men. She decided to co-found a women-in-tech coding group in Syracuse, NY to teach other women about technology, coding, and the web. You might be wondering, why are there women-specific groups? Kseniya shares with us the intimidation that some women feel when attending events that are predominantly attended by men. She also shares how she wanted to learn with and be around other women.If you're an organizer for a meetup, event, conference, or other event, this episode is critical to listen to. Join us as we learn from Kseniya how we can lower barriers to entry, make women feel comfortable and invited, and lift up women in technology.Show Notes:► https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/13/magazine/women-coding-computer-programming.html► https://www.amazon.com/Accidental-Superpower-Generation-American-Preeminence/dp/1455583685Follow us on X:@DevLifePodcastThe DevLIfe Podcast is 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.

S1 E17 - Angular and SEO
In this episode, Jeff Whelpley, Google Developer Expert in Angular, shares his expansive knowledge of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) with panelists Aaron Frost, Alyssa Nicol, Brian Love, and Jennifer Wadella. We talk about some of the basics of on-page optimizations such as Time to Interactive, First Meaningful Paint, etc. and the implications for Angular applications.Angular applications, in the context of the browser, are client-based and are built in the browser at runtime. While this provides many benefits to the user experience, it also comes with several challenges for SEO. Aaron and Jeff share some insight into these challenges, as well as the current solutions, including Scully for static prerendering and Angular Universal for server-side rendering.Finally, Jeff shares with us what Angular developers can do to optimize their applications for improved search engine result page rankings, including duplicated content, meta information, interlinking pages, crawl budgets, indexing, inbound links to leaf pages, and more.Follow us on X:@DevLifePodcastThe DevLIfe Podcast is 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.

S1 E16 - Authentication and Authorization in Angular
In this episode, Sam Julien, Google Developer Expert in Angular, Auth0 developer advocate, and expert (blue belt 🥋) in authentication, shares best practices for authentication and security in Angular.Authentication is necessary for most applications, but often, is either an afterthought or a once-and-done feature. This leads to potential issues as the security landscape shifts. While you _can_ roll your own solution for authentication, generating, validating, and refreshing token, an identity solution from a third-party provider may be something you want to consider. An identity service allows teams to focus on building apps and features, outsourcing the complexities of authentication using a JavaScript SDK. Sam walks us through implementing authentication in Angular using HTTP interceptors, route guards, storing authentication tokens, and state.Panelists Aaron Frost, Jennifer Wadella, & Brian Love then segue into recapping ng-conf: Hardwired 2020, which you can enjoy in its full talk-by-talk entirety at https://videos.ng-conf.org/.Follow us on X:@DevLifePodcastThe DevLIfe Podcast is 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.

In this episode, panelists Aaron Frost, Brian Love, and Jennifer Wadella cover the details on the recently released version 10 of Angular, plus, why you should always wear an aluminum foil hat. At this point, you might be asking yourself, wait, what? Yeah, we did the math and summed the even character ASCII codes from the changelog, and it all pointed us to this revelation. You're welcome.On a more serious note, this episode is jam-packed with fun and knowledge. While Angular 10 contained a few features, some deprecations, and a future-looking focus on resolving issues and maintaining dependencies, the panelists walk through the details that we should know as Angular developers.Finally, the panelists review some feedback on previous episodes and talk through becoming a Google Developer Expert (GDE) in Angular as well as imposter syndrome.
