About the talks

You might not need JS — Cyd Stumpel

Motion on the web has come full circle: from simple CSS animations and transitions, to JavaScript libraries, and now back to CSS again. With Scroll-Driven Animations we’ll explore how modern CSS is reshaping creative development today and where you can replace JS with CSS solutions.

Cyd Stumpel creates accessible, creative, award winning websites for individuals and companies. Sharing knowledge is big part of what she likes about being a developer. She does that by blogging, at meetups, conferences and by teaching the next generation of web developers at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences.

Shifting left on human rights — Dan Appelquist

The W3C integrates accessibility, security, and ethics into web standards. Inspired by UN human rights recommendations, this talk explores the W3C’s review process, its vital importance, and how these principles can be applied to other domains.

Dan Appelquist is an Open Source Strategist at Samsung and current co-chair of the W3C Advisory Board. He is an immigrant and US/UK dual national, living in London.

The W3C Code of Conduct applies to this event.
