Is this your event?About the event
Do you have a website? Can you write one from scratch? Can you repeat it, or easily modify it anytime? Why is it so difficult to own anything online?
Tim Berners-Lee complained in 1997 that Editors for his World Wide Web weren't as convenient as Browsers, and the situation hasn't changed since:
We complain about social media, attention economy, cognitive offloading or digital sovereignty now, but forget that we are here consuming an internet that we were actually all supposed to produce...
[Webrings](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring) are independent, decentralized networks of personal/project websites that make the Web robust, resilient and interesting, if only individuals take the initiative to organize!
We always begin with an initiation to our Git federation by reviewing collaboration practices from a personal repository, before we move on to a daily topic of interest: annotation, layout, hydration, version control, data storage, routing (HTML, CSS, JS, Git, SQL, HTTP), etc. - whichever our discussion ends up focusing on that day.
There's plenty to discuss, but we don't move on until everyone, whether beginner or expert, has found and documented their solution for the problem in their repository.
This is a hands-on workshop, so bring a laptop along with your hot takes and curiosity!
