YUI Theater
Summary: YUI Theater publishes video from events taking place at Yahoo! that center around the discipline of web development and frontend engineering. These events run the gamut from technical explorations of specific techniques or programming languages to broader philosophical pieces on the nature of the web as a medium for deploying interactive applications. With offices located throughout the world, and with thousands of engineers, Yahoo! is a center for innovation and exploration in the world of web design and development. YUI Theater aims to share with you the rich conversations taking place within Yahoo! and beyond as the Web evolves through its second decade.

Following codified guidelines [http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/] can help you build fast websites, but building applications that are clean, fast and extensible also involves taking a balanced approach to performance at every level of your F2E work. YUI 3 is designed to help you in this process, providing a right-sized abstraction layer with built-in performance magic and a variety of tools that make fast frontend code easy and fun to produce. In this session, we'll explore the zen of performant JavaScript in the YUI 3 world and introduce you to some of the powerful tools YUI 3 puts at your disposal in every app you write.
Software development is hampered by a specific set of design mistakes that were made in the first programming languages and repeated in everything that has been done since. And, somewhat miraculously, JavaScript is going to make it right, radically transforming the way we write applications. Again. In the Loop of History, it has all happened before, but it has never happened like this. This is why you should care about the emergence of server-side JavaScript and the excitement around projects like Node.js — not because they’re at the sharp end of a trend, but because they’re paving the road toward the next big revolution in software.
