Shape Of The Web | JS Conf 2019

Until 1992, the web was largely textual, reserved almost
exclusively to academia, with the charm of searching for library
books via card catalogs. The sea change came when a browser allowed
for both text and images to now be displayed in the viewport.
Despite some vehement opposition, this was described as the
"gateway to the riches of the internet". This was a technological
advancement that some had wagered would further fuel more
advacement. We now have seen technologies like APIs, PWAs, DevTools
and many more. “The Shape Of The Web” is about both accomplishments
and challenges that lay in past, present and future of the web -
from its technologies employed and its employed technologists.
