JSConf | History of Art vs. Web Design vs. Frontend Development by Nils Binder @jsconf_ | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 11 hours ago
Communication between designers and developers can sometimes be a bit difficult. It's probably something all of us have experienced at one time or another. But in the same way, communication between two developers or two designers can also be challenging. To quote Chris Coyer: "Two front-end developers are sitting at a bar. They have nothing to talk about."
In this talk, I'll show you that these problems didn't just happen with the invention of the Internet. Let me take you on a bit of a trip into the history of art. Using the example of two very different but outstanding artists in their field, I will show how we can have more understanding and benefit from each other. Oh, and there will be a bit of CSS in there, as I will show you that it helps to judge a layout, not by pixels and color values, but to see it as a work of art that you can analyze.

![Code Factorization: How to Organize Boilerplate Code - Jaewon Seo - JSConf Korea[Korean language]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Urj-aaxB6mE/hqdefault.jpg "Code Factorization: How to Organize Boilerplate Code - Jaewon Seo - JSConf Korea[Korean language]
Boilerplate code (repeatedly used pieces of code) is often the main culprit of unnecessary complexity and cognitive overload in programming. Thats why many books and experienced programmers tell us to avoid it, and we try our best by employing all kinds of methods, like inheritance and abstraction.
Despite this constant effort, we often still encounter boilerplate code. Sometimes, we run into boss boilerplate code, which we just dont know how to deal with.
This talk is for those of you whos tired of this endless battle. I will talk about code factorization, a technique that will help you gain an edge in the war against boilerplate codes. After this talk, you will be able to declare with confidence: veni, vidi, vici.")
