JSKonf 2024 - One of the biggest JavaScript events in Turkey

We were at JSKonf 2024 with one of my friend. Overview of the event and my thoughts from the perspective of a participant.


The Event

First of all, I want to thank the Istanbul JavaScript Community for organizing such a great event, and I want to thank all the speakers, sponsors, and participants for making this event possible. It was a great event, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot of new things.

The Talks

There were many speakers from different fields of JavaScript. We attended two particularly insightful talks: Core of Node.js by Emre Yalvaç and Mobile development with Capacitor by Vatanay Özbeyli.

Emre Yalvaç talked about libuv. Libuv is a c library to abstract non-blocking I/O operations. His presentation provided deep insights into how Node.js I/O works under the hood.

Vatanay Özbeyli talked about Capacitor, showcasing a live coding demo on creating and running a Capacitor project. Despite the limited time, he used his time effectively and highlighted valuable keypoints.

Quiz Game from Teknasyon

One of the event highlights was a quiz game organized by Teknasyon, one of the sponsors. They asked questions about Javascript. I answered a question about how to create a empty object in JavaScript correctly and won a water bottle. It was a fun experience, and I want to thank Teknasyon for the gifts and the enjoyable quiz game.
