19:45 〜 20:15 From Back to Front: Rails To ReactJS, Flux, RelayJS/GraphQL Khor Soon Hin

ReactJS, Flux, RelayJS, GraphQL, challenges the way we think & code front-end. This presentation explains what they are, how they work together, and how to get them to work on Rails.

In React/Flux, every time a user interaction triggers a change in a piece of data, the entire set of data for all the pieces of UI flows uni-directionally from the top-level UI to its subcomponents. This strategy helps debugging tremendously since by examining data at a single point we can reason about what when wrong.

RelayJS/GraphQL abstracts the difficult parts of fetching data and caching for UIs into a framework enabling us to simply declare data that we need without having to write AJAX or deal with asynchronous code. This allows us to reduced the server-side to a single API endpoint capable of handling the GraphQL DSL.
