Office Hours – States of Burnout with Jenny Truong17 Jul 202300:50:45

Jenny Truong is head of operations and developer relations at Stately, and recently gave a talk titled “The Unexpected States of Burnout” at React Miami, which you can watch here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcN8grYAEuQ. 

It’s easy to accidentally transition from being productive to burning out. We tend to think in the moment in life - I’m happy, I’m excited, I'm tired, I'm hungry, I'm burnt out. We sometimes fail to think about the transitions between the states — how did I become tired, burnt out, and how do I transition to a better state? 

Drawing on Jenny’s experience working at a highly-productive startup, join us as Carl Vitullo talks with her about how burnout can manifest, how it can impact our lives in unexpected ways, and how we can manage the energy we give work to thrive without burning out.

Office Hours – Professional Communication with Elizabeth Woolf06 Jun 202301:07:02

Developing software requires a lot of communication with other developers, with other teams and divisions, with managers or less experienced developers. Carl Vitullo is joined by Elizabeth Woolf to talk about feedback, team conflicts, salary negotiation, and more.

Elizabeth has worked at the intersection of tech and communication for years, getting her start in 2016 helping professors and students prepare talks and presentations. She’s just launched a new coaching business, Woolf Communication, in January after seeing a gap between what was expected of engineers in the workplace and what training is made available to them.

Office Hours – Becoming a leader with Ankita Kulkarni14 Mar 202300:47:52

Ankita Kulkarni is an engineer manager and educator with more than 10 years of experience as a software engineer, now teaching developers about the transition into management.


When Ankita became a manager, she had to find mentors to help her learn the subtle intricacies of being a successful manager. Now, she’s taking what she learned and teaching developers about what that transition looks like, and how to decide if that’s how you’d like to further your career.

Behind the React Documentary24 Feb 202300:37:39

A documentary about React, produced by Honeypot.io, was released on February 10th, and Carl Vitullo spoke with two of the people instrumental in making it happen: Ida Bechtle, staff filmmaker from Honeypot; and Christopher Chedeau, whose contributions to the React and JS ecosystem are nearly innumerable — React, React Native, Prettier, Docusaurus, Excalidraw, and more.

We talked about the documentary itself, how it got made, and some other behind-the-scenes info — an unofficial “DVD commentary” for the documentary.

Community Spotlight – Joy of React, with Josh Comeau14 Feb 202300:52:13

Josh Comeau is an indie hacker, educator, and long-time member of the React community. He has a brilliant way of intuitively explaining complex subjects, and we're excited to talk with him about content creation, his experiences being an independent educator, and his new course, Joy of React. We talked about his career, job hopping, content creation, RSI injuries, replacing "best practices" with "happy practices", and more!

Office Hours with Wix: Tom Raviv, Omer Kenet, & Peter Shershov26 Jan 202300:46:00

Our host vcarl is joined by 3 employees of Wix to talk about the evolution of web development, developer tools, and open source:

Omer Kenet, Head of Product for Codux

Peter Shershov, Engineering Team Lead

Tom Raviv, Head of Developer Relations and Team Lead for Stylable.io

Wix has been making web development more accessible since 2006, and they're currently celebrating the release of their new project Codux, a visual IDE for React. We're excited to talk about the history of our industry and what we can learn from the golden age of frontend development.

Office Hours with Matt Pocock and MapleLeaf11 Jan 202300:49:06

Join the Reactiflux community

Read the transcript here

Matt Pocock is an independent educator building totaltypescript.com. Previously, he has been an employee of Vercel and Stately, and was a member of the XState core team. MapleLeaf is one of our resident TS experts and longtime server MVPs. Through our conversation, we discussed how Matt got active in open source, why he's drawn to "the weird parts" of web development, and why working as a voice coach set him up for success after transitioning to software engineering.

Office Hours with Retsam19 and MapleLeaf22 Dec 202200:48:26

Join the Reactiflux community

Retsam19 and MapleLeaf are long-time Reactiflux MVPs who have spent countless hours helping out others in the community. Event MC'd by Carl Vitullo, and hosted on Reactiflux.

MapleLeaf and Retsam19 are two of our resident TS experts and longtime server MVPs. Both are active in the open source community as highly skilled engineers, and Retsam19 moderates the official TypeScript Discord server. Through our conversation, we discussed how we got our starts in software development and our first jobs, the value we've gotten from the online communities we're a part of (and how tools like ChatGPT might affect that in the future!), the evolution of the JS ecosystem with Bun and Deno, and more.

Office Hours with Mark Erikson and Lenz Weber-Tronic16 Dec 202201:12:13

Join the Reactiflux community

Mark Erikson and Lenz Weber-Tronic are long-time Reactiflux members and maintainers of Redux. Event MC'd by Carl Vitullo, and hosted on Reactiflux.

Mark (@acemarke) has been primary maintainer of Redux for 6 years and led development of Redux Toolkit, which was a major step forward in usability for the ecosystem. He's approaching the end of his first year in a new role at Replay.io, a time-traveling browser debugger. Before that, he spent the majority of his career — over 13 years — at 1 company! 

Lenz (@phryneas) has been a software developer for 20 years, and has worked with Mark as a maintainer of Redux and Redux Toolkit since 2019. He contributed much of the TypeScript expertise that made RTK possible, and is the brains behind RTK Query. He's in the middle of changing jobs right now, from a consultancy in Berlin to Apollo, a well-known open source company.

We talk about maintaining an open source library (and the challenges of providing correct TypeScript types!), what a job search is like later in your career, and more. Some links referenced through the discussion:

Hyrum's Law

Learning and Using TypeScript as an App Dev and a Library Maintainer

Why React Context is Not a "State Management" Tool (and Why It Doesn't Replace Redux)
