ES2015 was over half a decade in the making, and ES5 took even longer. ES2016 is the first specification born of ECMA TC39's new yearly release cadence and work is happening already on ES2017 proposals as well. What proposals might make the cut?

This talk will cover the changes TC39 is making to its specification publishing process for ES2016 and beyond and delve into some of the likely candidates including async functions, SIMD, class property declarations, Typed Objects and more.

By the end of this talk you will be familiar with these upcoming additions and know how and when to use them in your programs.
