This talk is an introduction on how to create addons for games, with a specific focus on World of Warcraft. The talk includes an introduction to Lua, a scripting language commonly used for game logic. It also showcases examples from a recently developed addon.

I held the first talk at AdaCon this year. I often see a lot of talks and articles about new technology and how to develop new code. However, there is very little about how to maintain your code and ensure it has a long lifespan. It can be very expensive to rewrite products constantly to use the newest technology. Therefore, my talk focused on how to make your frontend code more robust and suited for meeting the future, ensuring that you don't need to rewrite it at every turn.

In this presentation, I took the audience on a journey to show how Robi, a programming game for kids, was created. I dived into how it is teaching different programming concepts and presented more technical details towards the end.

In this talk, I presented an easy way to write apps for smart watches in JavaScript for the Tizen OS. I also showcased the app My Little Alien, that I had created.
