Fluent: Spotlighting the Crucial Tools and Technologies of the Web

The Web is undergoing countless transformations as new ways of interacting with it emerge, and keeping up with the sheer volume of new and changing web development tools and practices is a challenge for anyone working in the field.

Fluent is the only conference that covers every major (and emerging) web technology and tool of the web stack: JavaScript, HTML5, CSS, React, Angular, containers, Docker, and many others. Learn about UX design, engineering best practices, and the newest libraries from over 75 of the leading experts and innovators in every facet of the web platform.

At Fluent, you'll find the perfect convergence of speakers, topics, and focus on the technologies that matter most to your work. You'll interact with hundreds of your fellow web professionals who are facing (and conquering) the same problems you face every day. This year we're offering more professional training, deep content for advanced engineers, and more networking opportunities than ever. Make plans to join us at Fluent, happening March 7-10, 2016 at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis.
