What is Codegarden?
Codegarden is an exclusive, one-of-a-kind experience. It’s the biggest Umbraco conference in the world, and also the only Umbraco conference that’s organized by Umbraco HQ (the company behind Umbraco).
Last year, more than 700 friendly faces from all around the world showed up and joined the insightful sessions led by over 37 phenomenal keynote speakers, Umbraco community stars as well as Umbraco HQ members. And we’re expecting even more to join us at Codegarden 2020 😉 We’re thrilled about this. And we guess you are too!
