4. Join the unconference sessions
One of the important reasons we recommend that you join Codegarden 2021 live is that it’s the only way for you to join the unconference sessions.
Now, you might be wondering what’s an unconference session. Take a peek 👇
The talks in this year’s 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. As an unconference attendee, you can ask your burning questions, and the hosts will discuss them together with the speakers. It’s an awesome opportunity, right? 🤩
5. Mingle with other Umbracians at the Pre-Party
Today. At 8 PM CEST. You need to join.
We’d very much like to have you join our Codegarden Pre-Party and get to virtually mingle and network with old and new Umbraco friends - a setting where you’ll experience the unique, friendly Umbraco spirit. Will you join the fun? 🥳
