🥊 Battle of the Frameworks: The Underdog Edition
Not your usual React vs. Vue showdown: we’re giving the spotlight to the scrappy challengers! 🥊🥊🥊
Join us ringside as four speakers go head-to-head, championing:
🥋 Laravel: the PHP powerhouse
⚡ Blazor: .NET goes full-stack
🎨 WGPU: graphics API flex
📟 No-Framework 90s Vibes: pure HTML, CSS, and chaos
Each speaker gets a lightning-fast round to throw punches, land hot takes, and win over the crowd. Expect a night of quick hits, niche drama, and a little nostalgia for the days of table layouts and <marquee> tags.
HUGE thanks to Rakuten Kobo for the sponsorship 🙏🙏🙏!
