Lessons from 5 Years of UI Architecture at GitHub

Learn from five years of UI architecture experience at GitHub in this 31-minute conference talk that examines three critical lessons for modern web development. Discover why native web technologies have become the new baseline for frontend development, understand how design systems can become victims of their own success, and explore the reality that frontend development costs approximately 10 times more than backend development. Gain insights into the architectural decisions and trade-offs that shaped GitHub's user interface evolution, with practical takeaways for building scalable UI systems in large-scale applications.
