Øredev is a well-established conference that has been around since 2005. As you may see from the beautiful social card created for my talk, the theme for this year was Alice in Wonderland.
The conference was, as always true to its theme. The room I was assigned was called Upstairs and was located upstairs. Next to it, there was a room named Downstairs but was still located upstairs. Confusing? Well, luckily enough the conference website had a locator map and I guess the attendees figured it out since I had an almost full room for my session.
Check out the slides for my talk titled Attention Java Developers – Everything YOU need to Know About Jakarta EE 10.
As most of you know, getting decent coffee can be a problem at most conferences. Øredev is an exception. There is a barista in the corner of the exhibition floor that brews the most exquisite coffee. They do charge a little for it, but one of the perks of being a speaker is that you get it for free by showing the speaker badge.
As speakers, we are also invited to a speaker dinner in the splendid Malmö City Hall. A nice way to start the conference week!
This sounds like a fun and well-organized conference experience!
The “Alice in Wonderland” theme is clearly reflected in the whimsical room names, which adds a unique, memorable flair to the event, even if it’s slightly confusing. It’s great to hear that the locator map helped attendees find your session, which sounds like it covered a highly relevant topic for Java developers (Jakarta EE 10). The detail about the excellent, speaker-perk coffee and the speaker dinner at Malmö City Hall highlights the high quality of the event and the excellent treatment speakers receive.
