Ilya Klimov — Robust JavaScript: Chasing a Myth

. . January 2018. The setting: Ilya's own small outsourcing company. A small code error costs the client $600,000, an amount neither Ilya nor (now) the client has.
This event, although (fortunately) not fatal for either the project or the company as a whole, became a decisive factor in Ilya reconsidering his views on writing reliable code for a development team.
In this talk, Ilya will attempt to highlight the results of nearly a year of his research, technology selection, and architectural solutions for improving the reliability of his team's code, as he understands it:
Bad and "incorrect" code should look wrong;
It should be easier for a junior developer (and not only) to write correct code than incorrect code;
Everything that can be automated should be automated, but with as little effort as possible.
In essence, Ilya will introduce you to his purely subjective choices in the vast world of JavaScript technologies, explain the pain points behind them, and how they work.
