Notes
Accessible Modal
- We should definitely not use it
- Existing modal was pretty heavily integrated with the rest of the page
- Already built, we were just changing stuff inside it
For legacy components, leave as is, new stuff use Paragon- Convert where possible!!!
- For legacy backbone stuff event emitters can be a good solution
- Also Ari has a PR she still needs to land...
- Modal experiences are already inconsistent
i18n in SFE
- https://github.com/edx/studio-frontend/pull/180
- Uses https://github.com/yahoo/react-intl
- Can we chat with
about this and maybe pull it into the i18n minute?- Yes!
- You can nest languages!
- You can do cool stuff with a11y requirements/aria labels etc.
- WrappedMessage wraps every formatted message in a span specifying lang
- WCAG2AA compliance!!
- Reactifex – our way of working around Transifex's JSON formatting limitations
- What about future decoupled frontends?
- Recommend something like this for future decoupled frontends
- However maybe it should all live in one place
- Let's add it to the cookiecutter!
New Relic Browser
- Does anybody use it?
- 2.5 developers
- ecommerce, mktg, platform use it for overall performance issues
- error catching is useful
- Is Speedcurve better?
- What about SPAs? NR Browser does a good job with this.
- It is really expensive.
