Explore the future of JavaScript development in this JSConf conference talk by John Hann and Brian Cavalier. Delve into the concept of modular architecture as an alternative to traditional frameworks. Learn about micro libraries, code infiltration, and the challenges of 'coding dysentery'. Examine the potential for a 'coding utopia' through practical code examples. Discuss the feasibility of a module-based approach and its implications for web development. Investigate current module standards including CommonJS, AMD, and ECMAScript proposals. Understand how to implement modules today using techniques like inversion of control and the AMD module format. Watch a live demonstration of writing modular components and structuring AMD-defined modules using tools like Dojo and Wire.js.
