Welcome to CTRL+ALT Philly!
[6:35-6:50] Debugging with AI ( MCP + Seer)
👤Speaker: Kyle Tryon
📝Description: The Model Context Protocol (MCP) connects LLMs with real-time data from multiple sources to build better context for smarter responses. We'll integrate our codebase with Sentry.io’s error logging and performance metrics, for automated, intelligent, issue fixes with AI.
[6:50-7:05] Building community management tools with AI and MCP
👤Speaker: Amanda Martin
📝Description: Explore the design and build of a community based MCP server built for managing CFPs and event information. We’ll look under the hood, walk through how it works, and live-demo how to design and add a new MCP tool.
[7:05-7:20] Buttery-Smooth UIs with React Transitions and Deferred Rendering
👤Speaker: Michael Smith
📝Description: React's mental model is that your UI is always a function of your state. But what do you do if that function is really expensive? This talk provides a practical guide to React's deferred rendering features, so that you never have to worry about your UI locking up again.
