SmashingConf 2024: The Goal

The main reason SmashingConf exists in the first place is that we believe in sharing and strive to bring people together. This explains the very practical side of Smashing Conferences. It’s a place where professionals like yourself share practical techniques, ideas, strategies, failures, lessons learned, and successes in an informal, intimate atmosphere.

Keeping it personal: No fancy suits, no halls with thousands of people —just practical quality content, delivered by experts working on real-life projects, in an open, welcoming environment. We take pride in our code of conduct, and we don’t tolerate any disrespect. Please be kind and considerate to each other.

The Smashing Attendees

We are expecting 550 people in the audience, and another 100 online — friendly, knowledgeable, professional designers and developers who want to learn and grow in what they do. We have people coming from all parts of the world, and while there will be a large percentage of designers, there will also be front-end developers, UX experts, IA architects, marketing managers and even more. We know many of our attendees personally, and it reflects the nature of the event.
