The best developers never stop learning. They’re constantly expanding their knowledge sets into new arenas: new languages, security, hardware, and even better human management.DevBeat — hosted by VentureBeat on November 12-13 in San Francisco — is the can’t-miss event for those bright, motivated, mid-career developers.
What to Expect:
- Take ‘master classes’ on Node, Angular, Python, and more
- Dive into workshops on security, design, and dev team leadership
- Hear talks from hackers like DHH, Stallman, Lerdorf, and many others
- Make decisions about what to learn, do, and be in the years to come
- Hack hardware hands-on with your peers
- Venture deeper into polyglot territory
- Explore new career paths
The program is high-level but hands-on. It features two main tracks — one with focused ‘master classes’ and active participation, and one with lean-back learning in sessions with world-class guests and modern hacker heroes. Register here with code “Gizmo” and save 20%.
