Born as an internal Google experiment - and initially brushed off by Gmail and Google Maps - AngularJS soon became a JavaScript sensation. But when internal pressures pushed the team towards a radical overhaul of the framework, the community felt left behind. What followed was years of attempts to bring Angular back to its former glory without breaking the world again. Once considered dead and buried, Angular is back on everyone’s lips, pushing the boundaries of JavaScript and reaching new levels of importance at Google. From Angular 2 to Ivy, incorporating Signals to converging with Wiz and everything in between, get ready to explore the journey of Angular with a star-studded cast including Miško Hevery, Igor Minor, Brad Green, Minko Gechev, Sarah Drasner, Alex Rickabaugh, Addy Osmani, Ryan Carniato and Simona Cotin, among others.

Back in 2008, most people thought of JavaScript as just a client-side language. But when Google's V8 appeared, young developer Ryan Dahl made the connection between non-blocking servers, V8, and JavaScript. It was by combining these key elements that he was able to create the now hugely popular Node.js.What young Ryan Dahl probably didn't expect was how much forking drama would follow.Join us as we delve into the origins of Node.js, meet some of its earliest contributors and explore the complicated dynamics between corporations using open source technologies and the dedicated community members who fuel their progress. Featuring interviews with Ryan Dahl (creator of Node.js), Isaac Schlueter (creator of npm) and more.

Ruby on Rails has one of the most faithful communities online, it also has one of the most controversial, rabble-rousing creators out there, Danish programmer, David Heinemeier Hansson. Widely known as DHH, David tells us how Rails went from a crazy idea to one of the most talked-about full-stack frameworks over the course of 20 years. Get the whole spill by the people who had a front-row seat to the creation and development of Ruby on Rails. Jeremy Daer, Jason Fried, Tobias Lütke, Jamis Buck, and… DHH tell the tale of Rails. A tale seeped with passion, pushback, and (after Rails 3.0) maturity.

React is easily one of the single most popular libraries in use today. Given that it was made within a juggernaut like Facebook, you might have assumed it was always destined for success.But what if we told you that React’s first brush with the public sphere was anything but glamorous? React.js: The Documentary brings you the full story behind the early days of React, focusing on the dedicated group of developers who helped bring it to the world stage. This story is told by an all-star cast of developers like Tom Occhino, Christopher Chedeau, Pete Hunt, Sebastian Markbåge, Dan Abramov, and many more.

Watch and witness the journey of open-source monitoring system, Prometheus. Before Kubernetes existed—even before Docker—the team at Soundcloud already knew their monitoring system deserved a complete, fundamental revamp. Of course, as with anything in development, this was no easy task.Join us as we explore the story of Prometheus, from inception to adoption as told by the story’s key players including Julian Volz, Matthias Rampke, Björn Rabenstein, and more. In the end, you’ll see how a “problem to be solved” eventually led the industry to a completely new understanding of monitoring. We hope you’re ready to be inspired.

Inspired by the open source success of Docker in 2013 and seeing the need for innovation in the area of large-scale cloud computing, a handful of forward-thinking Google engineers set to work on the container orchestrator that would come to be known as Kubernetes– this new tool would forever change the way the internet is built. These engineers overcome technical challenges, resistance to open source from within, naysayers, and intense competition from other big players in the industry. Most engineers know about “The Container Orchestrator Wars’’ but most people would not be able to explain exactly what happened, and why it was Kubernetes that ultimately came out on top. There is no topic more relevant to the current open source landscape. This film captures the story directly from the people who lived it, featuring interviews with prominent engineers from Google, Red Hat, Twitter and others.
