Vue Vapor: Goodbye Virtual DOM
For more than a decade, the Virtual DOM has been the default answer to "how do we update the UI without re-rendering everything?" Vue, React, and others have built their whole reactivity story around it. But the Vue team has been quietly working on something different: Vapor Mode, a new compilation strategy that ditches the VDOM entirely and emits direct DOM operations instead. In this talk, we'll dig into what Vapor actually is, how it works under the hood, and why it matters.
The Power of Vue.js Real-Time Applications
Your users don't want to click the refresh button. They expect updates in real time!

How can you roll your own? Expect some fun demos and a multiplayer game that all attendees will be invited to play, powered by Vue.js.

Why Vue.js? The Evolution of Single Page Applications
How did we go from static websites to the web apps we live in today? We’ve come a long way from the 1996 Space Jam website and GeoCities to tools like Figma, Discord, and Slack. This talk explores the evolution of Single Page Applications, tracing the journey from the early internet to today’s real-time services. We’ll look at how rendering shifted from the server to the client, and how frameworks like Vue helped drive that transition in the pursuit of speed and a better user experience.
