JISC Developer Days

Wed 24 - Sat 27 February 2010, London

Dev8D is 4 days of 100% pure software developer heaven. It will be intense. It will be exhilarating. It will make you a better programmer.

• Learn to use unfamiliar languages (such as Python, Ruby and Clojure)
• Team up with other developers and build rapid development projects for tech prizes
• Take part in lightning session discussions with industry experts
• Swap skills and ideas with other developers

Dev8D is funded by JISC as part of the Developer Community Supporting Innovation project (DevCSI for short). The aim is to bring together developers from higher education and other sectors in order to learn from one another and ultimately create better, smarter technology for learning and research.
