Our brand new SmashingConf Toronto 2018 🇨🇦 will explore how designers design and developers build — including setup, design workflow, live CSS/JavaScript coding, debugging, accessibility & performance audits, and... everything in-between. With Q&A for deep dive-ins. One track, two days, packed with live sessions, and plenty of practical workshops. That's SmashingConf Toronto 2018. The night before the conference we'll be hosting a FailNight, a warm-up party with the twist — every single session will be highlighting how we all failed on a small or big scale, and what we all can learn from it. Sounds like fun? Well, that's probably because it will be! Speakers & Workshops One track, two conference days, 16 speakers, and just 500 available seats. We'll cover everything from efficient design workflow to getting started with Vue.js to improving eCommerce UX to production-ready CSS Grid Layouts; performance audits, data visualization, multi-cultural designs, and other fields that may come up in your day-to-day work. Here's what you should be expecting: That's quite a speakers line-up, with topics ranging from live CSS/JavaScript coding to live lettering.
