    A theater major who decided to act like he understood business, Carl spent 14 years in advertising before launching his digital agency, nGen Works, in 2003.

    nGen ran for 12 years, constantly experimenting with different models of management and team structure, including the Jellyfish Model which was flat before flat was cool.

    Towards the end of nGen’s run, Carl attended the very first Bureau event and fell madly in love with the concept of building community in the web industry. So much so that a few years later he closed nGen to take over the Bureau in 2016. Now Carl spends every day connecting digital professionals to give them the support they need.

  • 211 – 🤔 Ego vs The Design Process with Ignacio Garcia

    In this episode we get to talk with Chief Experience Officer, Ignacio Garcia. We discuss Ignacio’s day-to-day as an Experience Officer. We chat about the very real challenge of ego vs the design process, and how to address it.

    Then we dive into one of Ignacio’s passion projects, the UX+DEV SUMMIT. The SUMMIT focuses on bridging gaps between various disciplines in unique and engaging ways by combining different areas of specialization with emphasis on collaboration. The goal of UX+DEV SUMMIT is to increase awareness of effective approaches and applications of UX.

    Vuex Demystified – Application State Management

    In Vue.js is quite simple to work with components, and share data among them using events and props – especially in small to medium projects. When an application starts growing, managing components state might become tedious and overwhelming. This is where Vuex comes to our rescue. Vuex is a state management pattern and official library for Vue.js applications. It serves as a centralized store for all the components in an application, with rules ensuring that the state can only be mutated in a predictable fashion.

    By the end of the workshop, attendees will be able to develop elegant, debuggable, maintainable, and organized applications using a centralized store. No prior experience with Vuex is needed.

    We will answer the common question “When should I use Vuex?” and work on real-world features.

    Outline

    Understanding State Management Patterns
    What is Vuex and what problems solves
    Core concepts including Mutations, Actions, and Getters
    Modularising the store
    Composing Vuex assets using Higher-Order Functions
    Implementing Vuex pseudo-cache
    Best practices, common gotchas, and application architecture

    Ridiculously Reusable Components in Vue.js

    Components are the bread and butter of most modern front-end frameworks, such as Vue.js. They help you structure and manage your application by glueing together your application logic and the interface. However, as an application grows, it’s components tend to get bigger and harder to reason about.

    This workshop will demonstrate how to efficiently design your components by focusing on maximum flexibility while avoiding premature optimisation. Throughout the workshop, we’ll build a set of components for a preexisting application. Following the evolving requirements, we will then perform a series of refactoring cycles to explore different possible solutions and patterns/anti-patterns.
    We’ll also talk about good practices for managing responsibilities of our components. By the end of the workshop, you should be able to write future-proof components that are easy to work with and resilient to changes.

    Building Fast and Semantic Input Masks in VueJS

    Input masking is a common pattern in form design that guide users to enter information in the correct format in a consistent manner. Typically this involves formatting user input according to the type of data they represent like dates, phone numbers, addresses and credit card numbers. You can achieve an input mask in Vue by leaning heavily Vue’s reactivity system chiefly methods, computed, and watchers. In this talk, we will cover the distinction between the various components that make up Vue’s reactivity system and how to leverage it in order to create semantic and robust input elements that respond seamlessly to user feedback.
