Hi NAME,

I’m requesting your permission to attend Reactathon Conference, one of the longest-running and most prestigious React conferences in the world. It’s taking place in-person in Pacific Heights, San Francisco on May 2 - 3, with a workshop on May 4.

I’m especially excited to learn more about React Server Components. Introduced in 2020 and made available late 2022 through Next.js, RSC is a new paradigm that will change how we architect our applications. If we get it right, RSC should improve performance and our application speed. Reactathon has curated a full keynote with 3 talks dedicated to this subject — React Suspense, React Server Components, and a panel discussing community approaches to server components from frameworks Astro, Solid, and Tanstack Query. These talks & discussions will be delivered by the creators, maintainers, and core contributors to these libraries and frameworks.

This conference is focused directly on the technologies we use every day. Being so hyper-specific, and independently-organized, the practical applications of this conference are far greater than most. The speakers are leaders in the field who are pushing the boundaries of the next evolution of web development. Topics include routing, server-rendered components, the future of AI-enabled software development, shipping less JS, modern CSS, and more. You can see the full schedule of talks at reactathon.com/schedule

Here is an estimated breakdown of costs:

• $899 - Reactathon Conference
• $599 - Full day, hands-on workshop
• $599 - 2 nights at the conference hotel in San Francisco
• $399 - Domestic airfare

$2,496 total.

I look forward to your reply!

Thank you,
