Conquer Web and Mobile with a Single Project

Building separate web and native mobile apps requires a lot of effort and is very expensive. This often forces us to pick just one and as a result sacrifice overall user experience. But you don’t need choose, you could do both with a single code-sharing project. I hear you ask: “How?” It's simple: structure your project with the power of Angular CLI and “Custom Schematics,” then use Angular and NativeScript to build for web and native mobile. If you want to transform your existing web project to a code-sharing structure, we’ve got you covered with ng add and a collection of migration schematics. Join me to learn how code-sharing projects work, what can be shared, and how to transform existing projects. And all of that with just a couple of new CLI commands.

Workshop: Build Web + Mobile Apps with a Single Project

In this workshop, you will learn how to use Angular and NativeScript to target web + Android + iOS from a single Angular project. You will learn about: Generating Angular components and modules with the Angular CLI and NativeScript Schematics: - What should/shouldn't be shared - Organizing shared and platform specific code - Working with navigation in a shared project During the workshop, you will use the Angular CLI, NativeScript CLI (no need to install Android SDK or XCode), NativeScript Schematics, NativeScript Preview app (on your phone) and NativeScript Playground app (on your phone). When we finish, you'll end up with a working project built for both web and mobile.

Adopt an AI-driven Chatbot Today

If you ever asked yourself any of these questions: What do chatbots eat? Do chatbots have dreams? What are the usual chatbot challenges? Then this talk is for you. We will answer all of the above questions and many more. You will learn how to build a fully functioning chatbot in less than 10 minutes – without a single IF statement – and train it to understand human language. Then we will top it off with a quick AI training to make it understand language in the ways people typically speak.
