I’m deeply passionate about Free and open-source software (FOSS) and love exploring the inner workings of the Web and JavaScript. As a core maintainer of projects like Excalidraw, React-Tags, Mermaid-to-Excalidraw and more libraries, I’m dedicated to contributing to the open-source community. I also organize and lead monthly FOSS meetups in Bangalore, India. Outside of tech, I’m a big foodie with a love for travel and cherish spending quality time with my family.

I’m a software developer in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I’m a fan of writing reliable code, my dog Benny, and attending my favorite local meetup: Michigan TypeScript. When I’m not helping developers implement durable workflows, I love spending time with my wife and daughter, gardening, and building orchestration engines that combine event driven architecture and workflows.

I love building things on my Twitch stream and some of those things have been CLI tools. When you are creating binaries, you sometimes want people to be able to extend your tools with their own functionality. The simplest path has traditionally been exposing a server API for someone to interact with but many security-minded users are averse to the idea of a tool they use running a local http server. You can give your users extensibility without the need for a local http server and at the same time allow them to use any of the languages supported by the Extism toolkit.

I’m a certified accessibility engineer and founder of Web for Everyone, an initiative dedicated to introducing accessibility concepts to frontend developers. I’m also the accessibility specialist for Gridiron Survivor, an open source project building a SaaS application. In my previous career as a high school math teacher, I was regularly concerned with creating learning experiences that were accessible and welcoming to each and everyone of my students. Teaching a legally blind student first introduced me to the concept of digital accessibility. Through my work in frontend development, I want to make sure that everyone, including my former student and other people with disabilities, can easily navigate and understand the products and services we build. Outside coding, I love reading and memorizing poems, as well as taking walks with my cat.

I’m Dan. I am a founder at Inngest and spent previous several years as CTO at Buffer. Back when I had more time I built Timezone.io (service, open-source) and MailDev (dev tool, open-source). In 2020 I bought a 96 year old house and started a restoration and renovation project on the weekends. Hit me up if you want to chat home renovations.

I’ve been a software engineer for a decade. I first worked on an open source IDE at Facebook in 2013; then moved to ads at Pinterest, collaboration tools at Stripe, and absolutely everything at Instabase when it was only 5 people. In recent years, I’ve enjoyed roles that bring me close to users, first as a deployed engineer at Retool and now as a devrel at Render.On software teams, I’ve always found myself helping colleagues communicate their technical ideas. With my background, I can help engineers efficiently and with a lot of empathy. I’ve produced, written, and ghostwritten successful tech blog posts that have hit the front page of Hacker News and been featured in prominent newsletters.This talk came out of a colleague at Render asking me to explain all the edits I made to his posts (he could see the “what” but not the “why”)—and SquiggleConf is the perfect excuse to sit down and explain!

Hi, I’m Loris. I work at the Zig Software Foundation, and my main job is to help Zig grow a vibrant community and ecosystem. While, like most people, I started with only high-level programming languages, Zig has introduced me to systems programming and shown me all the design choices that previous programming languages had precluded me from accessing. I now use my newfound superpowers to try to write performant and robust applications, and on occasion I even succeed :^)

Max is a software engineer at Nx and works on the core team. He spends a lot of his time building Nx & Nx Console - a VSCode and JetBrains extension for Nx workspaces. When not digging through code, he spends his time travelling, reading sci-fi and listening to music.

I’ve been immersed in TypeScript for over a decade, bringing my experience and expertise to a variety of companies and contributing to significant projects like The Dojo Toolkit and Codesandbox.

Currently, I’m a software engineer at a leading tech company, and I actively engage with the tech community by speaking at conferences and sharing my passion for web development, TypeScript, and Vim. My goal is to foster a collaborative environment and inspire fellow developers. When I’m not coding or podcasting, I’m practicing my public speaking through the art of karaoke, or being kept on my toes by my two kids who ensure life is never dull!

I’m a web performance engineer working on the Chrome Web DevRel team at Google, where my mission is to make the web faster. My role is to promote web performance best practices to help developers succeed with Core Web Vitals, and a major part of that is giving developers the right tools to measure and debug slow user experiences. I’m currently working closely with the Chrome DevTools team on the next generation Performance panel, and since 2017 I’ve been working on the Chrome UX Report, a public dataset of real-world performance data from millions of websites. I’ve also built several tools including the Core Web Vitals Technology Report and the CrUX Dashboard to help developers track performance and discover opportunities for improvement, and I co-wrote Using WebPageTest, a book about the web performance testing tool.

I am a Staff Developer Advocate at TBD, Block’s newest business unit. At TBD, we’re shifting the paradigm by converting open standards into open source SDKs that make cross border payments and data ownership more accessible for users. I’m responsible for helping people understand how to use the SDKs through documentation, content creation, conference talks, and practical code examples. With a diverse background spanning GitHub, startups, and non-profit organizations, I have cultivated a passion for utilizing emerging technologies to champion equity within the tech industry. I moonlight as an Advisor at G{Code} House, an organization aimed at teaching women of color and non-binary people of color to code. I believe in leveraging vulnerability, honesty, and kindness as means to educate early-career developers.

Hi, I’m Robby Russell, the creator of Oh My Zsh, one of the most popular open-source projects on GitHub with nearly 2,400 contributors. As I reflect on the 15th anniversary of its release, I remember creating Oh My Zsh to scratch a selfish itch within my small team, never anticipating its widespread adoption. By attending my talk, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of why it became successful, learn from the unexpected journey, and discover valuable lessons that can help you in your own projects.
