Abstract
In today's cloud computing landscape, the gap between efficient local development and seamless global deployment frequently presents challenges. The creation of cloud software often demands extensive integration and meticulous plumbing. Thanks to Deno and its suite of meticulously crafted primitives, we can notably bridge this divide. This talk will delve into:
- Deno Runtime: The next-generation JavaScript runtime.
- Deno KV: A datastore with global reach, anchored by ACID transactions and powered by FoundationDB.
- Deno Queues: A resilient system for background task processing, guaranteeing at-least-once message delivery.
- NPM in Deno: Merging Deno with the vast node ecosystem, paving the way for increased adaptability.
- Fresh web framework: Spotlighting rapid page loads and accelerated edge deployments.
Join us for lively (and risky!) real-time demos demonstrating the speed at which one can build a comprehensive cloud application from scratch.

10:35 Pacific DEKJ Session JavaScript Streamlining Cloud Development with Deno Ryan Dahl Co-Founder & CEO @Deno, Software Engineer Best Known for Creating Node.js In today's cloud computing landscape, the gap between efficient local development and seamless global deployment frequently presents challenges. The creation of cloud software often demands extensive integration and meticulous plumbing. 11:45 Pacific DEKJ Session Frontend Frameworks Hydration and Lazy-Loading Are Incompatible Miško Hevery CTO @Builder.io If your app is slow, the advice is to lazy-load your code and execute less code on startup. That is excellent advice, but it is much harder than it seems because of how hydration works in today's frameworks. 13:35 Pacific DEKJ Session Client Design Server Driven UI - Streamlining Mobile Development and Release Thomas Chao Principal Engineer @Snowflake, Previously at Uber and Google A discussion about server driven UI frameworks for Mobile development. We'll discuss what they are, why they are starting to become more prevalent, and the spectrum of possible options you can consider when you're looking into an SDUI framework. We'll also hit on the pros and cons… 14:45 Pacific DEKJ Session Applied Cryptography Combating AI-Generated Fake Images with JavaScript Libraries Kate Sills Software Engineer and Consultant, Previously Lead Engineer on the Zoe Smart Contract Framework at @Agoric Because images and videos can now be produced with artificial intelligence, it’s increasingly difficult to determine which are real and which are fake. One approach has been to look for “tells” that reveal an image is AI-generated. 15:55 Pacific DEKJ Session Frontend JavaScript: Empowered by Rust Chris Biscardi Independent Full Stack Product Engineer, Educator @rustadventure.dev, Author of "Rust Adventure" Rust is powering the next generation of JavaScript tooling including Turbopack, Rspack, Parcel, SWC, lightningcss, and more. What does this mean for JavaScript developers? Isn’t Rust a low-level language like C?
