Episode Synopsis

Shawn Wang - known as "swyx" online - is a financial investor turned software engineer and journalist. With a passion for history and a knack for "trend spotting", Shawn uses a keen analytical sense, honed through years of financial due diligence, in order to organize the world of web development into a series of epochs, each with its own theme. He's recently codified these observations in a blog post titled, The Third Age of JavaScript. Today, we're thrilled to have Shawn as a guest on our podcast to discuss the past, present, and future state of JavaScript as well as the world of developer ergonomics and the magical possibilities of effortless platform management.Notes & LinksShawn Wang: The Third Age of JavaScriptShawn Wang: The Self Provisioning RuntimeShawn Wang: Temporal.ioJohn Resig: jQueryDouglas Crockford: JSONanalytics.usa.govJavaScript (ES) ModulesEvan Wallace: esbuildSWCParcelBenedict Evans: Platforms, bundling and kill zonesBase Rate FallacyRogers Curve of Adoption: Diffusion of InnovationsCrossing the Chasm: Marketing and Selling High-Tech Products to Mainstream CustomersSvelteSvelte SocietyWebpackPulumiAWS Cloud Development KitServerless.comBegin.comAmazon DynamoDBChris Richardson: Microservices.ioThe Burning Monk: Choreography vs Orchestration in the land of serverlessFollow the show!
