OpenJS World Announces Full Schedule

Join the open source JavaScript community at OpenJS Foundation’s free virtual global conference

The OpenJS Foundation is excited to announce the full schedule of keynote speakers, sessions and workshops for OpenJS World, the Foundation’s annual global conference. From June 23 to 24, developers, software architects, engineers, and other community members from OpenJS Foundation hosted projects such as AMP, Dojo, Electron, and Node.js will tune in to network, learn and collaborate. 

We will also use this time to celebrate the 25th anniversary of JavaScript. OpenJS World will showcase several key JavaScript contributors, many of whom will be leading JavaScript into the next 25 years.

Due to continuing COVID-19 safety concerns, OpenJS World 2020 will now take place as a free virtual experience, at the same dates and time: June 23 – June 24 on the US Central Time Zone. If you have already registered and paid, we will be in touch with you about your refund.

The conference will include inspiring keynotes, informative presentations, and hands-on workshops that are aimed to help the OpenJS community better understand the latest and greatest of JavaScript technologies. 

Today we are excited to announce keynote speakers, sessions and hands-on workshops that will be joining us at OpenJS World!
