Look, we know that as developers, you don’t like when we mince words, or use jargon as a crutch, so here’s a refreshing thought: we’re not going to. We could give you an entire spiel around the fact that technology is infused into every aspect of every industry, and that developers are key to building the future, and everything… but you’ve all been doing it, and probably for some time now. The future you built is the incredible one we have today, and the one you’re building for everyone tomorrow.
We want to give you a competitive edge. That’s what we believe OutSystems has to offer you. Remember the good old “Work smarter, not harder” thing? OutSystems was built from the ground up with that very concept in mind. We’ve always been a developer platform, because at the core of what we are and do is the notion that we want to make developers’ lives easier.
And make no mistake: if someone ever tells you that programming is easy, they don’t know what they’re talking about. It may come easily to people, like you, that have invested in learning it throughout the years — but it’s never an easy task. We know that fact, we acknowledge that fact, so we want to help you focus your brainpower on the stuff that really matters: we want to enhance your programming powers.
So, if you haven’t heard about what it is specifically that we bring to the table, if you’re keen on learning a bit more about OutSystems, or even if you just want to be around other people like you who’ve already embraced the technology, know that the OutSystems Developer Conference (OSDC) was created just for you. No fluff, just the real deal.
Our Developer Conference is where you’ll get the chance to join our global community of developers to learn and share how to use OutSystems to build stuff that matters, faster than ever. This is no vague promise, you’ll get the stories and testimonies from people who have really done it, and they’re eager to show you how they did it.
Whether you’re an experienced developer or just starting out your career, this conference is the place to be, to draw inspiration from, and not by being shown some vague display of technology that you can’t really get your hands on: we expect you to start getting your hands dirty, and we’ll be right there by your side to guide you through it.
Here are the details: OSDC 2021 is a two-day free and virtual conference taking place on the 17th and 18th November. It’s (really) designed by developers with developers in mind, but with something for everyone who’s keen on getting the technical details, such as architects and IT managers alike. It’s all about kickstarting or levelling up your OutSystems knowledge, with technical sessions that focus on solving real-world problems — and always a bit of fun, on top.
You’ll get to connect with other developers in the very lively OutSystems community, get the chance to add new skills to your resumé, and find out all about what’s new and upcoming with the OutSystems platform. With around 100 speakers from the OutSystems community, presenting from all around the globe, we made sure there was something for everyone.
With that out of the way, take a gander at what we have to offer next.
