We all surf the waters of the open web. We all have myriads of opportunities for learning, growing, experimenting, earning and procrastinating thanks to the powers it has.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been going to conferences for over a decade now. Lots of WordCamps<\/a>, often Fronteers<\/a>, PHPBenelux<\/a>, twice a Responsive Day Out<\/a> (1 day single track confs about how we could tackle the new challenges and possibilities the new ecosystem of so many different screens gave us back then), Ampersand<\/a> (only about web typography), JS<\/a>\/CSS<\/a> Conf, Full Stack Fest<\/a>, Full Stack Europe<\/a>, …<\/p>\n\n\n\n One time we went to a Drupal Conference, I have to admit it was by accident. It appeared to be one of the finest conferences we’ve attended: open, welcome, a myriad of fine talks where +\/- 50% of the talks was really Drupal-specific. And guess what: as a WordPress’er, even those talks were quite relevant for us and the after party was great (walking around with a WordPress-logo can start some fine discussions at Drupal events \ud83d\ude09 )<\/p>\n\n\n\n So: yes, WordCamp Antwerp will be a WordCamp. About WordPress and WordPress-related topics. But hey: we’re at the University of Antwerp, we’ll have 2 big auditoria and even some extra classrooms. We’ll have plenty of space for all kinds of talks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Help us serve a fine broad selection of sessions and cross the borders on the world wide web we’re on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n To be clear: we’ll vet all applications as a team. Each session should have something todo with WordPress or the open web. To give you an idea: that’s any of the following subjects and more: accessibility, Open Source, re-decentralization, browsers, online business, UX, diversity in tech, machine learning, workflows, indieweb, Open Source community challenges, OS e-commerce, the JAMStack, CSS, HTML, design, online typography, serverless, decoupled, privacy, mental health in tech, web standards, writing, …<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tickets only cost \u20ac40,00 for the whole weekend (incl coffee, lunches & some drinks). Hop by on one of the conference days on Friday March 27th and\/or Saturday March 28th in the city campus of Universiteit Antwerpen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enjoy the atmosphere, open up fine discussions & when a session doesn’t suit you, you’ll always have the hallway track (and the university bar \ud83d\ude09 ).<\/p>\n\n\n\nWant to contribute with your knowledge?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
