Sign me up!

[franzejr]

Thanks, @GantMan ! Do you mind giving us a title/topic about your talk?

Thanks one more time!

[GantMan]

I can discuss React Native Windows perhaps! You think people will be into that?

[franzejr]

Yeah, I think it's fine! Thanks!

[franzejr]

pinging @GantMan and @peterpme to check if you guys will keep the same talk :)

[GantMan]

O wow... so many talk ideas! Let me choose a few and suggest some!?

[franzejr]

@GantMan I think you have chosen last year React Native on Windows. Feel free. :)

[GantMan]

I would like to talk about Solidarity :)

[dabit3]

I've been working on something that will be released soon, by August 27, having to do with AWS Amplify with React Native, I'd love to talk about that.

[franzejr]

Ok, @GantMan @dabit3!

I would like to talk about a theme that I've been trying to push forward: *(Try to) Avoid React Native development being a nightmare. *

Basically a series of problems I faced and how I am trying to solve it. If @peterpme will not give the talk, I can give a talk around this theme.

[dabit3]

I like the idea but the wording seems pretty harsh & negative for people who may be just getting in to react native, maybe calling it "How to make React Native Development Easier" or "How to Tackle Common Issues in React Native' or something along those lines sounds more friendly.

[franzejr]

Hey @dabit3 I completely see your point and I thought about that! My point here is just because I wanted to avoid people having headaches on React Native Development and I would like to point it out. Because I think it can be a nightmare if you don't do the things in the correct way.

Your point is totally valid, but I just wanted to stress out on the words just to make clear this may be a nightmare. I appreciate your concern! 😄

[peterpme]

👋 Excited to see this being resurrected!

I agree with Nader about "React Native Nightmare". I think the words are pretty harsh. Programming anything is a nightmare =P

[franzejr]

Programming is not a nightmare and never will be, but it can be a nightmare if you do it in the wrong way and also you need to deliver software in a tiny period of time.

Do you want to give your talk, @peterpme ?

[GantMan]

you should try pair programming with me, that's a nightmare 🤦‍♂️

[franzejr]

Let's pair @GantMan ❤️

[peterpme]

Yeah I'm down to give my talk! I will do a different variation of:

Practical ways of moving quickly while still retaining code quality
