[music] Hi everyone. Uh, welcome again in React Con. We are in Henderson, Nevada, New Las Vegas. Beautiful environment. And I'm here with Aurora. >> Hello. Hello. >> Who just had a talk at the stage. >> Yes. >> And what I want to talk with you about is like all of the excitement that is happening here at React Conf. So, let's start there. Uh yesterday we had a keynote from React team at MEA talking
about like new things in React >> 19.2. >> Yes. 19.2. Yeah. >> What's your favorite one? >> I there's so many good things there. I know a lot of people like the activity component. I really like view transitions because I'm terrible at animations. >> Yeah. >> So it's like it's nice that you have this way to actually make your app look smooth and nice and it's it's not very hard. I mean I I can do it easily, you know. So yeah, maybe that's my favorite. Yeah. you just showed off. Like you are such a showoff when you when you [laughter] Okay. Like it works. It
works. I I like it because uh it simplifies using uh view transitions. >> You could use them in React without the view transition component, but it was like much harder. >> I don't even know how to do that to accomplish. >> I don't know how to do that. Yeah, I think like this is such a superpower to have this uh way of using shared elements and just like by just adding ID to the elements. >> Mhm. It's so declarative and it just makes sense. And I think the React team
worked really hard to like handle all of the edge cases. Like there's a lot of things that they handle for you. If you play around with with it, you'll see like, oh, okay, they did this smart thing here to make the UI stable. Yeah, it's really great. It's a very intuitive and uh great API to use I think. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> What do you think about React Striptom? >> You know what it is? So that's like uh taking the web primitives Yeah. >> and applying them on React Native and like unifying the platform. >> I haven't been totally into that yet so I don't know. Yeah.
>> Uh yeah, like you said, I like the activity component. Like that's also like quality of light like developer experience improvement where I can just like start using it and like it's applies you know what like it applies the lower priority rendering. >> Yeah. >> That's so cool. >> It's really cool. And I think when you see people like refactoring something, it's like it's literally you just change this one line of code and it's just
going to be >> doing so many good things for you like pre-loading or like a lower priority rendering. You said that. >> Yeah, it's great. I think it's really great that we have this primitive now. It's also easy to use, right? >> Cool. >> Yeah. >> I think I saw you giving a talk in next two weeks as well at next next JSC. >> I will be. It's a very busy month for me. >> Yeah, we just saw each other in Spain. You did a talk at in Aleante. Then it's few days later you do a talk here and then in next two weeks you are doing the talk in is it San Francisco?
>> Yeah, San Francisco. Yes. >> What is it going to be about? Can you say? >> So yeah. So it's going to be more on the the direction that uh NexJS is going right. They're trying to find this unified model with I don't know if you're familiar with it with cache components and such. So basically, it's going to be no more like static dynamic split, but more you suspend your your dynamic uh content and the rest is just going to be statically rendered. So it makes your apps just so much faster and it's so much more intuitive. >> And I know a lot of connections
developers struggle with how to where to put their suspense boundaries and how to avoid blocking the page. And I also think it's going to help a lot with that because you get these um warnings when you do something that you probably shouldn't be doing. >> Okay, cool. So, it's nice to have this unified model and of course it all uh builds on top of server components and being smart with how you where you put them, how you compose them, how do you uh create your interactive components. Yeah. So, that's what I'm going to be speaking up there trying to teach people that. Yeah. >> Is Nex.js the framework that you use on
