About the event

Welcome to our JSMonthly meetup.

We are having two talks this month, three speakers including Mo Javad Khazali, Andrew Harris and Shaul Efraim

Schedule

6:30pm: Doors open

7pm: Mo Javad Khazali // One Hook to Rule Them All

By nature, React & JSX blurs the lines of separation of concerns. Your markup is now being combined with your javascript - if you want to make it even wilder, throw in a styling framework like tailwind and you'll have your content, business logic, and presentation layers all in one file. This conflicts with the conventional wisdom that your web architecture should have clear distinct boundaries between your HTML, CSS, and JS. We propose a practical solution to avoid this muddling of SoC and to extract the business logic out of our components once and for all.

7:45: The Recipe for Revenue: Make money with software without subscriptions or ads // Andrew Harris. Shaul Efraim @ Rapyd

Developers used to think of payments as a cost. Businesses had to pay transaction fees to do business online. But with APIs and Fintech as a Service, the equation has changed. Payments are a way to create new revenue and grow your business. After Drew Harris gives a brief intro to Rapyd, get hands-on as Software Architect Shaul Efraim from Rapyd shares with you how to integrate the fundamentals of the Rapyd API into your product.
