Component-driven microservices with NodeJS and Bit , Jun 29, 2022, Online , demo
In this live coding session, Gilad, Bit's VP R&D, will show you how to compose component-driven microservices using NodeJS, Express and Bit.
Join him to learn how to:
-
Compose 2 component-driven microservices from scratch.
-
Easily add, modify, and remove components from your services.
-
Share managed components between services to radically speed up backend development.
-
Easily manage dependencies and updates between components and services.
-
Gradually build a reusable toolbox of backend components.
-
Modify and update components in the context of another service or project.
-
Avoid configs and have a smooth dev experience.

Micro Frontend Build time vs Runtime dependencies - a gentle equilibrium , May 17, 2023, Hodash Dev
There are two main phases where micro frontends can converge into a single application. Some organizations prefer to compose their micro frontends in the client at runtime, while others choose to bundle them together during the build process. This talk will explore the tradeoff between these approaches, examining factors such as team independence, time to ship to production, safe updates, runtime performance, and bundle optimization.
I will demonstrate how we combined these approaches in my organization and will share some tools and processes that will allow you to enjoy the benefits of both worlds.
The Golem Turns On His Creator β How I took home automation too far , April 30, 2023, Ariel University
Ever wished you can automate everything in your home? Really everything?
For 5 years Iβve been radically automating my house: It finds my phone and reports its location when I ask, it starts boiling water when my baby starts to cry, and it calls my phone when my spouse calls me downstairs.
I wonβt lie, itβs pretty awesome.
But a smart home is a powerful servant and a dangerous master.
My home has become a weapon for my kids against me. It tried to sabotage my marriage. It even made me live in the dark. But I survived. In this talk, I will share my experience and raw footage of an experiment gone too far. Together weβll try to create a useful toolbox of does and donβts for the brave smart home engineer.

This extended version includs a live demo with me demonstrate a live spin-up of a home assistant using Docker Compose, with some assistance from the GPT3 chat. I even created an automation that changes the color of a lamp when my Mac is connected or disconnected from a power source.

Building bit - Lessons Learned In The Trenches , Feb 9, 2020, In.Dev Meetup , slides
In this talk I will introduce Bit, talk about the challenges and opportunities of building a core piece of your technology with the community, the challenges of having to play hand in hand with the rapidly-changing open source ecosystem (from Git & NPM to Webpack and React) and share some insights for teams who want to open source some of their projects
From libraries to monorepos and beyond , Feb 26, 2019, JS Israel (Google office) , slides
Share these components , Oct 17, 2018, React Israel (Facebook office) , slides
Every button, slider or card is a component while larger elements can be composed out of smaller components to create new applications.
But, what happens when we want to share and reuse these components?
In this talk, we'll dive into this question and learn how different architectures, from multi-repo to monorepo, affect our team's ability to share and reuse components. We'll explore how different tools in the ecosystem play a role in this use case, and learn how Bit can help us isolate and share large numbers of components, making them available to discover, use and develop anywhere in a distributed workflow. The session will include a live coding demo session and Q&A.
Gilad Shoham leads Bit's core open source team. He previously led a Javascript team at Sisense and is a lifelong contributor and speaker in the dev community.

How and why I built my resume using React components , Jun 6, 2018, Geektime code , http://resume-presentation.surge.sh/
Iβll give a live demonstration of a tool that can help you build those components easily and view them beautifully rendered in seconds.
Let the tests play an active role , Feb 20, 2018, Node.js IL , slides
Accelerate your GraphQL adoption using bit , Jul 13, 2017, GraphQL IL , slides
During this talk, Iβll describe a way for an organization to use components as a way to accelerate its GraphQL adoption. This GraphQL can be a public to everyone or public to the organization only.
Iβll describe the current problems with publishing and adopting APIs, and demonstrate a live demo of integrating GitHub GraphQL into my own project in few minutes by using components pre built by the publisher, without the need of reading any documentation (which as developers we hate doing).
