Save the date because we're back in London! After a long break, Contentful will return to London for a fun and informative developer meetup.
Join us at the Green Room (101 Upper Ground) on October 26 starting at 5:00 pm. The night will start off with a quick round of lightning talks and then we'll do a deep dive into some neat topics with some amazing speakers. We will also be having an evening watch party for Fast Foward Live where we will be announcing Contentful updates and exciting new product launches, and more!
The Talks
Arrows (At Length)
Steve Ruiz, Founder of tldraw
Love linking lines? Join Steve in considering the humble arrow as both a programming problem and a user experience challenge. In this talk, he'll present the many complex problems and solutions that he has encountered when working with arrows in his open source library perfect-arrows and later in tldraw (tldraw.com). With a narrow scope and plenty of animations to guide the way, we'll look at intersections, arrow heads, arrow head angles, and all of the different user interface issues behind authoring and adjusting arrows between shapes, other shapes, and points.
Jamstack gives you wings
Obinna Ekwuno, JavaScript Dev and Developer Advocate
All serverless platforms are extensions of the power of front-end developers, and with better serverless the blurring of middleware boundaries around ownership issues that exist between back-end and front-end teams is somewhat clearer. This answers the old question of "who owns the proxy server?" That's what a serverless platform owns!
But what happens when the serverless code leaves the computer? Where are you going? Do you want to make new friends wherever you go? As the size of the company grows, will we grow together with it? Let's talk about this. In this program, we'll be talking about pushing the boundaries of serverless.
Lightning Talks
Some special guests...and you!
A Contentful friend or two will be presenting lightning talks. Plus, we’ll open the floor to attendees so if you have something you’d like to present for about 5 to 10 minutes we’d love to see it!
