For me JSX is the part of React that makes developing with it a real treat. Yes, the functional nature, the state and lifecycle management are really nice, too, but JSX makes it all come together in a great way.

And now it’s the time of the year where I post all the talks of the chaos communication congress that I can recommend. Due to the baby I only managed to be there for a day. Let’s see how many days I make it the next time :wink:. I didn’t watch any talks live because I focused on connecting with all the people I haven’t seen for too long. Luckily everything is online and I watched tons on my couch the last few weeks. And as always: if you think I missed an important talk, feel free to ping me.

My privacy is important to me online. Because of that I never surf without an adblocker and Privacy Badger.

It’s time again for my list of talks that I loved on the chaos communication congress. Sadly I wasn’t able to be there this year. Hopefully I will be back at 35c3. Someone kept me rather busy :wink: .

Some of you might have noticed that something happened in my life. I got a baby. Here I want to give a couple of tips that I found very helpful. Maybe you will find a few of the things helpful, too.
