- Game Development in React & Typescript with Maksim Ivanov - RRU 232
Front-end developer Maksim Ivanov talks about working for Mojang, the company behind the ridiculously popular game Minecraft. As it turns out, Maksim uses React to build different pieces of the game, and runs the code through a custom renderer to make it work in the game world. In addition to his day job, he also found time to write a book about TypeScript after realizing how much easier getting familiar with new code bases could be if TypeScript was used instead of JavaScript. The panel has used TypeScript to varying degrees themselves, but nobody's gone all in, and they talk about the pros and cons of it, including the initial learning curve and how it can help prevent bugs in the code. Maksim's book covers many aspects of TypeScript in great detail, and it sounds like a good read for anyone just picking up the language.

Today we talk with Fred Schott, the co-creator of Astro, a web framework focused on improving performance. Built around island architecture, it leverages HTML over javascript where it’s an option. Astro is a great option for those who focus on content, marketing, or personal blogs, and it is a great option to use with React. In this episode, we talk about when it makes sense to use Astro, and how to implement it.

Software Engineer Andrey Goncharov joins the React Round Up crew to discuss how his company Hazelcast has approached visualizing hundreds of data points on potentially hundreds of computers in a way that makes sense to users. Dust off your math skills - it gets a little technical along the way as they discuss graphs, charts, performance optimizations, and bottlenecks, and even handling accessibility of these data-intensive graphs. If you ever have to debug system failures and anomalies, this will be a worthwhile episode to check out.

Software engineer Pierre Hedkvist joins the React Round Up panelists to share some spicy (controversial) coding decisions he's made and then written about. The first hot topic is using React state to store filter setting in query parameters with the help of a custom Hook, and the second is migrating an app to rely more heavily on React Query instead of Redux.
If you've been considering doing something similar, give this episode a listen to hear Pierre's strategies and advice for anyone looking to get started.
