In St Louis after Strange Loop, on Saturday, September 23rd, 2023
A community event for everybody interested in local-first software in St. Louis, MO.
We particularly want to bring together people who are actively working on local-first projects — be it building frameworks or tools, developing local-first apps, or doing research in the area. But we also welcome people who are simply curious and want to learn more about the topic.
The event will have an informal unconference style. Instead of a series of long presentations, we will have self-organized discussion groups around your topics of interest.
Registration is currently full. Add your name to the waitlist - we will be doing a final announcement on Friday.
Organizers:
- Brooklyn Zelenka
- Martin Kleppmann
- Peter van Hardenberg
