The @ffconf.org CFP is open - if you're UK based (or near UK) especially, FFConf wants to hear your voice. I updated the "Most recent ideas" with more of my wishlist, and added an extra point to our speaker promise: we won't AI-ify your photos. ffconf.org/articles/cfp/

Our last newsletter was published yesterday. Includes screenshot of the 2026 web site progress (and visual theme), a callback to mental heath week with @amyhupe.bsky.social's talk, and Global Accessibility Awareness Day with a handful of useful links for devs & designers. ffconf.org/articles/202...

New laptop cover and it’s almost full already Stickers from @londonwebstandards.org @beyondtellerrand.com @ffconf.org @webdevconf.com @pixelpioneers.co @heypresents.com #borderNone @monkigras.com @frontendnorth.bsky.social @perfnow.nl @mozilla.org @firefox.com @11ty.dev @loftio.co.uk @lloydi.com

The first set of our #FFConf talks are live for your viewing. Ever thought about about how your data is used? How deep is the rabbit hole? Are there alternatives? @chetbox.com addresses these points: www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1h5... Then evangelise at your workplace.

Photos from #FFConf 2025 are online - lots of lovely faces ❣️ www.flickr.com/photos/remys... Big thanks to @trysmudford.com for his amazing work taking photos throughout the day.

Finally gotten around to writing up my thoughts on #FFConf 2025. remysharp.com/2025/11/22/f... Videos and photos are still being processed, so those are coming too.

Just over 3 hours until Early Birds End! And they are flying out today.

One thing that I cannot understate about my experience attending @ffconf.org is that it really reignited my excitement about programming. I've always enjoyed it, but some of my energy and motivation has dissipated over time. Now I have so many things I want to make, I can't decide what to do first!

Second time attending @ffconf.org and enjoyed all the talks, especially "Powerless by Design" by Chetan Padia, "Web Components" by Hannah Clarke, "Six to Sixteen: A Child’s Programming Language," and "The Good Internet" by Sacha Judd.

Sacha Judd's #ffconf talk was one full of nostalgia for me. Fandom was my first online community 💗 and it's such a rich subculture of the internet. Was fab hearing all about @archiveofourown.org and many other incarnations of online fandom spaces being talked about at a web conf! @ffconf.org

Wonderfully detailed write up of #FFConf from our scholarship sponsor and the blazing fingertips of @katemonkey.com - krystal.io/blog/post/fa...

For those at #ffconf, we’re giving a ticket away to next years conference if you sign up to the mailing list. We’ll draw a ticket next week! heypresents.com/mailing-list

It's all systems go behind the scenes. Lanyards grouped (by name) and packed. Food purchased and delivered. Stickers, badges and more being picked up. Then this evening we meet our speakers and thank them with food, then one sleep to go!

Who will be in Brighton next week for @ffconf.org ?

If you’ve wanted to go to #ffconf but couldn’t afford it, I have a ticket spare going. Much rather it got used. ( my week’s focus got changed. 😞) Ping me.

Wondering how using AI coding tools impacts how we learn technical skills? Good news: @rivea0.bsky.social and I are giving a talk about this at @ffconf.org in Brighton on the Nov 14th! There's still a few tickets left if you've been meaning to come along and say hello!

The #W3C Workshop on Smart Voice Agents will be in February 2026, and the call for speakers is open until 27 November 2025. More info here: www.w3.org/2025/10/smar... #voice #agents #agentics #AI

LIght the jack-o-lantern. Pull on your vampire cape. Beware the full moon. It's time for Krystal to tell you some truly chilling tales that are coming for your website. Read more in our blog post.

Less than a month to go to get your ticket and join us on November 14th. Line up is solid, inspiration assured, and an amazing day just waiting for us all. Join us: 2025.ffconf.org

Travel ffor @ffconf.org finally booked. Extremely excited. Who else is heading down for it?

I've been mourning our loss of web events in AoNZ lately (rip Webstock, Gather, Codemania, KiwiFOO et al) and this gets at why. I'm so looking forward to @beyondtellerrand.com and @ffconf.org next month.

Incredibly proud (and happy) to have @krystal.io join us as the scholarship sponsor. This is a huge help to our budget and helps people attend who ordinarily wouldn't be able to. Go find out more about them - renewable powered UK hosting, right when we need it.

As part of our weekly #FFConf newsletter, we sent @sachajudd.com a few questions about their (tech) origin and their talk - really enjoyed the answers (lots of relatable answers in there!): ffconf.org/articles/202...

Last night Julie and I attended a special evening at The Duke of York's 115 year birthday evening. Superb viewing of movies from 1800s and then Sherlock Jr with Buster Keaton. I have a lot of love for this venue as it has served us for 16 years of #FFConf ❣️. Looking forward to being back in Nov.

So excited to be speaking with @rivea0.bsky.social at @ffconf.org on Nov 14th about the skills impact of AI coding tools on us as individuals, on our teams and in our industry. It would be so lovely to see some of you there! 2025.ffconf.org/jessica-eda

We're back from our August offline-ness! Tickets are available again and we're back to our regularly weekly email news. If you missed it, here's the full write up, with community news and more: ffconf.org/articles/202...

7 days left of our early bird pricing. Then tickets close for the summer holidays, and reopen at full price.

I just bought my ticket to @ffconf.org 💛 2025.ffconf.org Now the next debate: sleep there or get the train back home.🤔

Missing out on @ffconf.org is annoying... but can be avoided. Get your ticket as soon as you can!

Early bird tickets are now live! It's a wonderful day, made so by all the wonderful people who attend and talk and share their experiences (importantly that means attendees too ❤️). It's a few months away, but secure your seat and join us in November: 2025.ffconf.org

Tomorrow at 11am folks. Who's going to be in the first wave of tickets? 2025.ffconf.org

Morning campers. Did you see our websites' 2025 design is live and the start of the speaker and sessions are going up: 2025.ffconf.org First round of tickets released next Thursday morning - set those clocks!

It's 🧪🌍 #WorldEnvironmentDay today. As a webbie, developer or designer, you should set aside some time to watch the brilliant talk from @lilnatw.bsky.social at #FFConf in 2022: ffconf.org/talks/2022_l...

Toot toot! (or bloot bloot!?). Either way, first batch ticket release date is set: 26th June 11am BST. There's limited tickets in that early phase run, but if you miss out, there'll be further batches 👍 Also, CFP is open and @remysharp.com is reading applications: ffconf.org/cfp

Remy is reviewing the first rounds of proposals sent to #FFConf this afternoon and weekend. If you want to get in front of my eyes, and potentially in front of the FFConf people's eyes, here's your link: ffconf.org/cfp

Happy Friday all you lovely people. Did you know we're back (did you think we wouldn't be!?). Our CFP opens today: ffconf.org/cfp - and includes tonnes of details. Early access tickets being announced soon too so watch out!

Going to start posting updates and items in our newsletter. Are you subscribed? FFConf.org/news 📰

Last November, I was honoured to speak at @ffconf.org on the topic of critical thinking for software engineers. The video of my talk has just hit YouTube! It’s mostly aimed at software professionals, but I hope it’s enough is accessible to other audiences too. youtu.be/kIEtS-nBdlc

The next set in our series from #FFConf 2024 have been released. @amyhupe.bsky.social and @mikehall314.bsky.social give us hope (with a good dollop of, I guess, dispair!) and debugging the brain: ffconf.org/articles/202... All our talks can be found here too.

Then to follow at #FFConf, an excellent scoop of scepticism (spelt…unintentionally with a K in the email and post) from @mikehall314.bsky.social specifically on biases and how we can debug these as webbies: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIEt... (in which Mike is photographed as "ARE WE NOT ENTERTAINED!")

Actually on time this week, @amyhupe.bsky.social reprised and updated their "It all means nothing in the end" talk especially for #FFConf: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTFW... Take some time to watch. Spend some time being kind to yourself ❤

"Every Monday" our videos are released. Who came up with that 🤦. Still, here's @bell.bz and @kimberleycook.bsky.social's talks available to watch: ffconf.org/articles/202...

The videos from our 2024 event are now being released every Monday. Here's the first post: ffconf.org/articles/202... You can watch all our videos at ffconf.org/videos (youtube playlist). Please share!
