Overview
The Design Systems Team is planning a special Developer Summit for all Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia Deutschland employees involved in designing and architecting for and writing Vue.js code across our various projects. By learning from one another’s work and collaboratively brainstorming, we will arrive at a shared understanding of best practices that can guide us going forward. A preceding Design Workshop will provide an opportunity for designers across teams to resolve design system architecture questions and prepare technical requests and requirements to the Developer Summit.
When
Developer Summit: August 10th–12th, 2021 14:00-17:00 UTC
Design Workshop: August 3rd & 4th, 2021 14:00-16:50 UTC
Who
Developer Summit: Wikimedia Foundation and WMDE staff who are involved in writing Vue.js code across our projects is strongly encouraged to attend. Other staff members who are interested in front-end development and design are also welcome. Past Vue experience is not required.
