What a week! DevConf Johannesburg on Tuesday 12 May and DevConf Cape Town on Thursday 14 May!!! 🔥
The energy, the sessions, the speakers, the hallway conversations exactly what the dev community is all about. Huge thanks to the organizers Robert MacLean and Candice Mesk or pulling off yet another incredible event. 🙌
It was an absolute privilege to represent the Cape Town MS Developer User Group as a community sponsor and get to hang out with my fellow organizers Matthew Leibowitz and Neil Thompson.
This was also my third year speaking at DevConf! 🎉 The talk was “Holograms, man Holograms” and the message is a simple one I keep coming back to every year (and every talk I do): Build fun things, build cool things and find your joy in tech. Learning is also best done doing interesting and entertaining build projects. Every one the fun projects I do, the learnings comes back to the day job in some form or another to create better solutions for clients. Thank you to everyone that came to my sessions. 🤗 The content is available here: https://explorationspace.co.za/2026/05/18/devconf-2026-cape-town/
