A very full on day but a wonderful one, back at the stadium for #DDDPerth 2025! It's been such a pleasure to be involved with @dddperth.bsky.social over the past 8 years and to see such support from the community

Congrats to the entire committee, we did it again! Now for a well deserved rest

And closing up the day, @rendle.dev is reminding us of all the reasons we still have to be cheerful in the world today at @dddperth.bsky.social #DDDPerth

Kicking off @dddperth.bsky.social for 2025, wearing a dress printed in code snippets that she has based her talk off 🤯

Getting the final things ready for @dddperth.bsky.social this weekend and taking a look at my name badges from previous years (I swear I should have a 2017 one somewhere)

Just a couple more days before I can add another to the collection!

It must be getting close to @dddperth.bsky.social because Speaker Training has now begun!

Over the next month, @jake.ginnivan.net and myself will be working with the speakers to help them prepare for the big day!

A very packed room this morning at #AgentCon as we kick off with a session on Agents, Automating, Copilots and why we should actually care about them

Your design will be tested by users - your only choice is whether to run the test yourself before launch

@jominney.bsky.social got into web development because building websites is WAY more fun than rocks 🤣 @ndcconferences.com #NDCOslo

And I got quoted as a CSS Expert! There was probably a joke after but this photo clearly shows me amongst some spectacular company

Lemon is recommending some cool CSS only demos on @codepen.io and I see @mandymichael.bsky.social and her Text Effects demos 🤩

While some front end developers might consider themselves artists, we're really just putting boxes in boxes - Lemon #NDCOslo

Last day of @ndcconferences.com #NDCOslo this week and Lemon is talking about all the amazing things we have now in CSS 🥳

Actually making it to a talk for a change, seeing if @philna.sh can make my life easier teaching us how to build an AI agent at @ndcconferences.com

Really enjoying @larene.dev's keynote on # accessibility at #DDDAdelaide this morning!

So many excellent points and stories, it really is an important topic we need to keep in mind with everything we build
November 23, 2024 at 4:43 AM
Because #DDDPerth wasn't enough last weekend, we're off on a quick trip to Adelaide for #DDDAdelaide tomorrow and our last trip for the year!

Feels nice but a little strange to be at #DDDPerth today! But really great to be here for the 10th anniversary of the amazing conference that so many people have built over the past decade

Had a few people very concerned about my charging cable last week, but the cable of death has now officially been replaced with some shiny new braided cables

In my defence, the cable functioned perfectly fine, there are no exposed wires and there were never even any sparks from it

Setting the bar for the rest of us at #CPHDevfest, @damovisa.me has coordinated his slides and outfit with the venue lighting

Winter in QLD really is something else. This morning when we landed in Brisbane it was 6 degrees. It's currently 30 🤣

@aaron-powell.com says he didn't know where Denmark was before he went there, clearly he didn't know it was in Western Australia 🤦‍♀️

Arrived in Melbourne safely with some incredibly mild weather considering what they've had and my previous experiences!

But first I'm kidnapped for gelato!

Inspired by conference knitters such as @webgoddess.bsky.social and @eliholderness.bsky.social, I brought my own portable thread based crafts for this conference!

Last day at #NDCSydney & another of the Perth crew are on stage, @jessbudd.bsky.social is talking accessibility, in particular with respect to single page applications (SPAs) & why JS isn't necessarily the problem
February 16, 2024 at 12:45 AM
After a week off, back at another conference and this time @mandymichael.bsky.social is teaching HTML for good developers and quoting *Internationally renowned accessibility expert* @stringyland.bsky.social 🤩
