BrooklynJS Talk Submission

Talk Title: uSe THe PLaTfORm yOu cOWarDs

Talk Description: The Web is an imperfect and ever-evolving platform, and has been heavily influenced by frameworks like Dojo, MooTools, and jQuery. Frameworks can fill in the gaps where Web APIs fall short, and sometimes even point us toward the future of Web.

document.querySelectorAll was born out of jQuery, CSS Grid has a long lineage with roots in Microsoft Silverlight, and #smooshGate demonstrated how the advancement of Web APIs is inextricably linked to legacy frameworks deployed years ago.

Should we build React into the browser? Let’s explore the interplay between Web frameworks of today and Web APIs of tomorrow, and use the Web's history to make some predictions about how modern frameworks will make their way into the Web 3.0, 4.0, which version is this?
