In his talk “JavaScript, Agentic Coding, and Harsh Reality”, Illia will share practical experience using AI in a large brownfield GitLab project: how to combine AI and JavaScript, what actually works in agentic development, and why the mythical 10x productivity boost is not as simple as it sounds. ✅ Andrii Shumada is a supporter of TDD and the “everything as code” approach, a public speaker, and an open-source contributor. During his talk “No MCP, No Zod: Lean AI Agents in Node.js and Vertex AI”, Andrii will discuss building a multi-tool AI agent on Node.js with Google Vertex AI, share insights on model selection and scaling development through CI/CD, and explain why the team decided to abandon MCP servers and Zod, often considered standards for such systems. ✅ Oleksandr Zinevych is an Engineering Director at Avenga with over 10 years of experience in web application development. He has worked with .NET, Java, Ruby, and JavaScript, and today leads engineering culture development in the company’s Node.js and Ruby departments. In his talk “Teach AI to Use Your Backend or The Magic of MCP”, Oleksandr will demonstrate how to turn a regular REST API into an MCP server and teach AI to work with your backend. You’ll learn the basics of Model Context Protocol, the required tooling, and key security considerations. More topics and talks are available on the conference website.
