I'm turning my @frontendnorth.bsky.social talks into a series of articles! Starting with the motivation behind our modern vouching design: amymrogers.medium.com/inclusive-by...

We're excited to begin publishing the wonderful talks from this years All Day Hey! conference in Leeds, held on 1st May.

“Human involvement creates humane outcomes.” @amyhupe.bsky.social said this at @frontendnorth.bsky.social conference in Sheffield this week, and it’s really stuck with me. Succinct, brilliant and such a valuable way of framing the work.

Soooo I used to make websites for a living and I recently attended a tech conference about web dev (very good people over at @frontendnorth.bsky.social) and it's inspired me to try to make something after all these years of being out of the industry.

Finally home after @frontendnorth.bsky.social. What a great event, run by really great people. The lineup was top class too!

#FrontEndNorth was an absolute riot! Amazing talks by @joehart.bsky.social , @bell.bz and many more people that I could not find with the @ dropdown. My favorite was of cause Salma Alam-Naylor taking us back to 1995. Thank you so much to the organizers and wonderful volunteers!

Home after a fabulous day at @frontendnorth.bsky.social Watched wonderful talks, saw friend and all-in-all had a really great time

Had a great day from start to end at @frontendnorth.bsky.social #FrontEndNorth! From @bell.bz's starting talk on genuinely important soft skills. During the break met a group of young software engineers where we talked about the morning talks and I put that talk into context of my own experiences

Had a blast at #FrontEndNorth yesterday. A lovely, friendly crowd, the other speakers were interesting and the organisers planned a brilliant mix of thought-provoking, uplifting, and inspiring creative talks, with a good dose of silliness. 📸 by @joshtumath.uk 1/4

Well that was fun. And now sleep.

Good morning everyone 👋 ☕️ If you’re in town for Front End North and need some breakfast, pop by GeekBrekky at HowSt café between 9-10:30am @sheffield.digital sheffield.digital/geekbrekky-c...

Great event today at @frontendnorth.bsky.social 🙌 Also so nice to catch up with @bell.bz @ryantownsend.bsky.social and many others in person 🙏 sometimes I forget how many of us are up here in the north! 😅

Had a brilliant day at @frontendnorth.bsky.social! All the talks were excellent + the atmosphere was lovely. If you want to see my slides and relive the nonsense, they’re at html2.toddle.site And of course, they were built with “fictional” GUI of the future: @nordcraft.com 🤓 #FrontEndNorth

Now at the #NationalVideoGameMuseum nearby with a cheeky can of beer to enjoy from #FrontEndNorth. Time to explore to see what video games I remember from my childhood!

really enjoyed @joehart's talk at #FrontEndNorth ! such a great day

Had a wonderful day at @frontendnorth.bsky.social. Thanks a lot for having me. If you're interested in the slides to my talk, you can find them here: ichimnetz.com/slides/unwra... #FrontEndNorth

Huge well done to our final 4 speakers of the day 💚 Hope you all had a wonderful day! @whitep4nth3r.com @amyhupe.bsky.social @craigabbott.co.uk @joehart.bsky.social Next step, National Videogame Museum! 👾🍕

Huge applause in the room for our sponsors, thanks for making a wonderful day possible and affordable! That's 20i, Mux, and With Jack!

Well, @frontendnorth.bsky.social has been a wonderful, inspiring day. Huge thanks to all the organisers and speakers!

What a throw back to sprite sheets. I feel so old right now right now. #FrontEndNorth

Final Fantasy Front End North! 👏 @joehart.bsky.social #FrontEndNorth

it’s @joehart.bsky.social time at #FrontendNorth 🎉

Creating terribly inaccessible products whilst meeting WCAG standards with @craigabbott.co.uk If it’s not user centred it’s not accessible!

Next is @craigabbott.co.uk talking about making user centred experiences to make them accessible. The medical model of disability says oh a blind person can't go to the cinema because they can't see. The social model says they can't enjoy the cinema because they don't have AD. #FrontEndNorth

Design Systems. Are they a system of harm? @amyhupe.bsky.social navigates through the issues that affect and excluding a wide range of people through bias. This was an eye opener. Also we should improve on inclusivity in design systems! #FrontEndNorth

So tired of these talks about overhyped new technologies that people are trying to shoehorn into everything. I mean, IMG tags? Why would you ever need that? Can't wait for the hype bubble to burst. (The brill @whitep4nth3r.com at #FrontEndNorth)

That was @amyhupe.bsky.social with Systems of Harm. Checkout Amy’s podcast of the same name here open.spotify.com/show/5qXmICc...

Some photos for you from this morning (and not from my potato phone)! 🌅 Huge thanks to our first 4 speakers for your fantastic talks @bell.bz @olu.online @ichimnetz.com @amyrogers.design #FrontEndNorth

Next is @amyhupe.bsky.social who's currently working with us at the BBC. We love Amy so much! She's worked in GDS, BT and many other places. She's talking about systems of harm. @frontendnorth.bsky.social #FrontEndNorth

Fresh, fly, and hella cool! Very excited for @whitep4nth3r.com’s predictions for web development

Next we have @whitep4nth3r.com who takes us back to a time when HTML 2.0 has just come out. Please wait while the dial up internet connects. @frontendnorth.bsky.social #FrontEndNorth

It's now post-lunch and @letorey.co.uk is MCing for the afternoon. The mic is doing wonders for his already booming voice. #FrontEndNorth @frontendnorth.bsky.social

Aww the only song I put on the @frontendnorth.bsky.social playlist came on while there's only 2 people to hear it m.youtube.com/watch?v=2cnO...

Have you headed to the 20i stand yet? Lots of (actually great!) prizes to win - glasses, a notebook, free hosting, and more!

“LLMs (used carefully) can help identify new types of document, or recognise that a bunch of ‘different names’ are actually all the same name but rendered differently and refer to the same person” - @amyrogers.design #FrontEndNorth

That’s inclusive identify verification with @amyrogers.design! Super interesting and important work from Vouchsafe and The Scottish Government

Amy is talking about being inclusive by design. She's worked on providing a way of getting ID for people who don't have photo IDs like driving licenses, so that they can still interact with services that require identity verification. #FrontEndNorth @frontendnorth.bsky.social

Dave has a great hat but let's take a moment to appreciate @kitation.co.uk's incredible sushi style! #FrontEndNorth #FrontEndCrochet

This is the sort of layout that is possible when one combines @ichimnetz.com #CSS skills with @bell.bz cross-dominion communication skills. 🦄 S Y N E R G Y 👯‍♂️ @ #FrontEndNorth

Boring! Breaking free of a fixed container and the tools which constrain our creativity with @ichimnetz.com #FrontEndNorth

Did you grab a sticker? We're pretty happy with how they turned out! #FrontEndNorth

Yay next is @ichimnetz.com! He's going to talk about the wrapper component that we often use to constrain the max width of the page. We've all been doing this for years. #FrontEndNorth @frontendnorth.bsky.social

One of our emcees @letorey.co.uk looking fabulous!

Made it to #FrontEndNorth. Already won some Lego. Today is going great!

#FrontEndNorth @olu.online: Building new webs will be messy and political. The mess is the work - working with people can be hard, but it is the most important thing

Ey up! Good to see you here in Sheffield James 👋 Grab yourself plenty of coffee!
