Compilers, User Interfaces & the Rest of Us

Compilers have long been seen as one of the most complex topics in computer science. Today, web frameworks are evolving from runtime libraries into optimizing compilers, reshaping how we build user interfaces. Different topics in front-end development—e.g., reactive programming—are now entering this era, fueled by insights from static analysis.

This talk will explore how modern UI compilers are redefining performance and developer experience. We’ll discuss how compilers are designed, including various open-source and enterprise solutions, and the growing role of compilers in automating tasks.

By the end of the session, you'll likely be optimistic about a future where compilers understand our entire code and offload a significant portion of our mental burden.
