ES6 Modules, Mastering Chrome Developer Tools, and more

Welcome to the first modern web online conference! You can enjoy modern web conference monthly in person in the Bay Area and Raleigh as well as online.

This month, we'll be featuring Kent C. Dodds and Jon Kuperman on ES6 Modules and Chrome Developer Tools.

Topic 1: More than you want to know about ES6 Modules

ES6 Modules have been standardized and many have already started using them. They have a lot of benefits over CommonJS, AMD, and Globals.

Unfortunately, there are many ways to deal with modules with this new syntax and it can be a bit confusing. In this talk, we'll explore the different ways you can use the new syntax and when you'd use the different methods. We'll also investigate what's going on at a high level. Buckle up for a firehose of ES6 information .
