Join us for an in-depth session on Firebase Genkit, an open source framework that simplifies the development of AI-powered applications. Discover how to use the Node.js and Go SDKs to build intelligent chatbots, multimodal content generators, streamlined automation workflows, and agentive experiences. We'll demonstrate how Genkit's unified interface seamlessly integrates Google's Gemini and Imagen models, self-hosted Ollama options, and a variety of popular models from Vertex AI Model Garden. 

JavaScript gets a lot of flak for not being strongly typed. But if you’re running JavaScript in production today, you don’t need to wait for runtime errors to catch problems. TypeScript has taken JavaScript from a loosely typed language, where a variable can change from a string to a number without warning, and made it strongly typed. Now Zod and Effect are here to tame even the wildest unknown parameters from your users. We’ll demonstrate using these tools in an application and we’ll deploy that application to Google Cloud.

The rise of AI-powered code generation tools presents a compelling alternative to traditional UI prototyping frameworks. This talk explores the question: Is it time to ditch the framework overhead and embrace core web technologies (such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript) for faster, more flexible prototyping? We’ll examine the trade-offs between structured frameworks and the granular control offered by a “bare metal” approach, augmented by AI assistance. Learn when leveraging AI with core tech becomes the smarter choice, enabling rapid iteration and bespoke UI designs, and when frameworks still reign supreme.

You name it, we’ll build it. If a demo feels too polished without enough opportunities for things to go wrong, then let’s throw out the script and do it live. We’ll pick a JavaScript framework and a database, and then build a full-stack application from scratch. If you’re a full-stack application developer or a frontend or backend developer wondering how everything ties together in a modern application, this will be an exciting ride worth joining – no Google Cloud experience required.

Calling all Google Workspace developers!
