Slides from Web app/JavaScript performance talk at Kings of Code

July 3rd, 2009 by Thomas Fuchs, 1 comment »

Here are the slides from the presentation Amy and I gave at Kings of Code ‘09 in Amsterdam. Probably not too helpful without the audio, it’s mostly for those of you that attended and asked for the slides, so please enjoy Rich and Snappy Apps (No Scaling Required).

You can also grab a PDF (3.4 MB).

    Thanks for taking the time to post the slides also, I am sure many people will find them useful.

    I found the talk very good, as it gave a good overview of what measures web developers should take these days to increase perceived performance.

    Great dynamic between you and Amy.

    From the diversity of the material, I am sure you could have given at least three different talks, going into greater detail … but if people want to really educate themselves, they can buy the book or hire you :-)

    Thanks again.
