Magento 2 Hackathon - January 23rd 2016

Yireo Blog Post

Following up on the Magento 2 Seminar, which is rapidly getting filled up, we are happy to announce also a Magento 2 Hackathon - a joint venture of 4 Magento User Groups in The Netherlands, plus some additional usergroups in Germany. Take a peak.

Magento 2 is kicking in!

While many are struggling to find time to adapt to Magento 2 - so are we - it is already time to show as community how awesome Magento 2 is. On January 22nd, we are organizing together with Dutchento an event labeled Magento 2 Seminar, with over 150 attendees and numerous awesome Dutch speakers.

... followed up by a hackathon

This seminar is now followed up the day after (on January 23nd) with a hackathon, during which various usergroups in The Netherlands (Rotterdam, Groningen, Amsterdam en Den Bosch) are each organizing a hackathon locally, and joining each other online via Slack and possibly other channels. Also joining us various friends from Germany (stammtischen).

The goals will vary for each usergroup: Depending on the variety of developers and merchants, projects will be setup to migrate shops, create new awesome Magento 2 extensions or build new tools. Whatever we are going to, it will be cool to work together with many people on one goal: Implementing Magento 2.

Join us in Den Bosch

Yireo will organize the hackathon in Den Bosch. After the seminar on Friday, we will be a bit tired, but it will be nice to sit down with friends and Magento 2 fans to see how we can mage into 2016. We will start at 11:00 in Cafe Bar Le Duc and will stay there until we fall to sleep.

If you want to come over, make sure to sign up via meetup. Admission is free, but you will need to pay for your own food and drinks. Also, don't forget your towel.
