Curious about what an unconference is? Let me know! If people are interested, I might write a blog post about it 😊
Many thanks to @heinzkabutz.com and the other (dis)organisers!
@ixchelruiz.bsky.social thanks for inviting me 🥰
Last week I’ve been at JCrete, an unconference. ☀️🌊 It’s completely different from a conference, but at least as insightful (and fun!).
I’ve met amazing people, had interesting conversations and enjoyed the Cretan hospitality. ❤️ For an impression, watch the aftermovie!
Good morning! ☀️ Looking forward to my first JCrete!
Yeah probably for people in a DevRel role that makes sense. But indeed for me, it’s not part of my regular job and I only want to give talks that are close to my interests. But it also means that my topics can be all over the place haha
But it can also be something that I'm interested in at that moment: remote pair programming tools during COVID. I wasn't happy with pair programming using regular screen sharing so I was looking at alternative tools. And I ended up making an article and talk about it 🙃

Thanks René! Often I create talks about things I struggled with myself. For example: understanding design patterns because the explanation is so abstract and vague. So I created a talk that explains design patterns based on real life situations.

The fall conference season is coming! 🤩 Need some last-minute CFP tips? 🔥 I've written an article based on my experience as both a speaker and a review committee member.

Bathroom with connecting roof terrace
Omg look at this hidden gem in my hotel room! 😍 A roof terrace accessible from the shower. What a pleasant surprise ☀️
(The only downside: it now takes even more discipline to practice my talk)
On my way to Cologne for #JCON2025. See you all soon!👋
Looking forward to tomorrow! My first time at @jcon.one 🤩
