Francesco Strazzullo (AKA Strazz) @TheStrazz86 (Follow me on Twitter!) Ego
Slide
WE DEVELOP DIGITAL PROJECT TOGETHER WITH YOU.
Start With Why
Why should you learn to build a Rendering Engine?
Let me tell you a story...
None
Some years ago, we had to create a new front-end
application on top of an old Java Framework...
None
We couldn’t add new dependencies...
None
The only available libraries were jQuery and underscore
None
We delivered the project, but our team was unhappy

“Never Manipulate the DOM” Every JavaScript Developer
Manipulating DOM is hard
None
Manipulating DOM is important for a frontend developer
We should be able to “own” rendering code
None
Principles

None
YAGNI (You aren't gonna need it)
“Premature optimization is the root of all evil” Donald Knuth
Performance is UX

How to decide if it’s a good solution?
