EVENT DESCRIPTION

AI coding assistants are transforming how we build software, but they come with a major blind spot: LLMs are trained on historical code, so they frequently recommend bloated, legacy patterns, outdated browser support, and obsolete polyfills.  

Modern Web Guidance fixes this by embedding live web platform expertise, browser baseline data, and accessibility best practices directly into your AI coding workflows. Instead of fixing outdated recommendations by hand, MWG steers your agents toward modern native browser features like ⁠: has()⁠, view transitions, container queries, and native popovers.  

What to bring: Laptop with Node.js/npm installed, your favorite AI coding tool or IDE, and an eagerness to modernize your dev stack!
