One of the important reasons we recommend that you join Codegarden 2021 live is that itâs the only way for you to join the unconference sessions.Â
Now, you might be wondering whatâs an unconference session. Take a peek đ
The talks in this yearâs Codegarden are grouped together in segments according to different categories. Each segment will feature an unconference session - as in, a panel discussion covering Q&A with the speakers.
