Some people say JSConf in April 2009 in Washington DC created the JavaScript community, others call it the best tech conference ever. Pretty much everybody who was there agrees that the conference had a very special spirit. With JSConf.eu we try to let that spirit live on and give JavaScript a home in Europe.
Here is how Chris Williams, the man behind the original JSConf, put the goals behind JSConf:
"JSConf 2009 is a conference devoted to the programming language we all love to hate and hate to love, JavaScript. This is conference will be thoughtful, content driven, and exemplify the very nature of JavaScript. The core focus of this conference is to expose some of the details about JavaScript that are often overlooked and present them more as a discussion with the audience. The content of the conference should cater to all types of JavaScript users from client interfaces to server development to testing. No matter which programming language you love, you know of the pleasure and pain of JavaScript programming. Come to this conference if you love JavaScript, come if you hate it, come if you don't even know how to program. Whatever drives you to come, you can be sure of one thing, there will be a lot of exciting and invigorating discussions to be had. After all, we are talking about JavaScript here and its used by every web framework.
We are trying to conduct this conference in such a manner that it addresses the core issues of the community as well as announcing cutting edge technologies in a language that often gets overlooked. The content and conference style will be different from most other conferences, not barcamp-style and not multi-track style, but somewhere between the two.
We are trying to make something different and we are trying to do it with JavaScript."
