Sunday at 09:00, 30 minutes, UB5.230, UB5.230, JavaScript Patrick Marchand , video

Datastar is a lightweight, extensible JavaScript framework for building push-based web applications. This talk will demonstrate how Datastar simplifies UI development compared to full-stack frameworks like React, Vue.js, or Svelte, while embracing a hypermedia-driven approach.

Patrick will demonstrate how you can instantly add reactivity and real-time updates to a frontend using Datastar and set up a backend using NodeJS for streaming server-sent events (SSE). Attendees will learn how to use Datastar to develop fast, reactive and highly efficient web applications.
