It was wonderful to enjoy SmashingConf New York/Austin Online with you on October 13–14, 2020.
We're coming back to New York in 2020! Meet an inclusive, practical and friendly conference on front-end, design and UX, with CSS/JS techniques, accessibility, performance, privacy and real-life case studies. Mark your calendar: October 20–21, 2020.
We pour our heart into creating friendly, inclusive events that are focused on real-world problems and solutions. Our focus is on front-end and UX but we cover everything web, be it UI design or machine learning.
SmashingConf is a friendly, inclusive event which is focused on real-world problems and solutions. 2 days, 1 track, 12 speakers, 300–400 attendees and a handful of hands-on workshops.
Our speakers rarely show slides: they show how they work — their setup, techniques and shortcuts for getting work done in live interactive sessions. So expect everything from collaborative Figma projects to “this-is-how-we-work”-sessions, live.
SmashingConfs are focused on front-end and UX, but they cover everything web, be it interface design or accessibility. That means a packed bundle of diverse, actionable insights for your work.
