Agenda

4:00 PM	🚪 Doors Open
4:30 PM	🏁 Welcoming
4:45 PM	🗣️ KotlinJS - Something You Want to Use for Web? by Matthias Geisler	The talk will give a quick intro into Kotlin for Web via KotlinJS. It will speak about the ups and downs in comparison to Typescript. It will go into the idea of Kotlin Fullstack and what this can mean for your codebase. And of course it will ask if it is something you want to use in production.
5:30 PM	⏸️ Break
5:45 PM	🗣️ A11y: Making the Web Inclusive by default by Talia Asghar	Join Talia for a great session on the importance of accessibility in web development. Discover how accessibility can transform the online experience for people with disabilities and learn about the various types of disabilities that can affect web users. Talia will provide practical insights and actionable steps that developers can take to make the web more inclusive and accessible to everyone, whether they face temporary or permanent challenges. By the end of this talk, you'll be equipped with the knowledge to create your own accessibility checklist, aligned with web standards, to ensure that accessibility becomes a seamless part of your development process.
6:00 PM	⏸️ Break
6:15 PM	🗣️ Leave a legacy, not legacy code by Stefano Baldan	We’ve all been there and done that: staring at a piece of code... and wondering who wrote that awful pile of garbage. The Git blame log often gives the dreaded answer - it was you, six months ago! Is there something better you can do than jump on a pimped DeLorean and slap your past self in the face? Stefano will talk about what needs to be done after the task is done, focusing on good practices and habits in documentation, testing, and automation. By the end of this talk, you’ll know everything you need to produce work that stands the test of time and inspires awe instead of disgust in future generations of developers at your company.
