1) Sylius, a few chocolate chips later

Back from the Dark Web on Magento and after almost a year learning Sylius for a great chocolate maker in Nantes and a Spices seller in Cancale, Jacques Bodin-Hullin is coming to Geneva to give us some feedback about this splendid e-commerce platform!
Jacques will give you the store’s keys: an e-commerce, symfony 4, a great team, many pizza/beers parties, tip & tricks, fails & successes, some continuous everything™ and so on!

This talk will be more than just Sylius, it will be about everything involved in e-commerce workflow.

Speaker: Jacques Bodin-Hullin, Founder & CTO at Monsieur Biz

2) Exploring new trends in web animation

Animations can be observed today on most modern websites. Whether they are composed of subtle transitions or part of a larger storytelling scheme, they are used by designers and developers to give personality to a site, help users understand complex ideas or subtly guide their actions.

In her 30-minute presentation, Catherine Brand, Course instructor at the EPFL Extension School, will talk about her exploration of new trends in web animation. She will discuss current animation design practices and some of the choices a web designer or developer may have to make when choosing animation tools (new CSS properties, pure CSS versus Javascript, etc.).

Speaker: Catherine Brand, Course instructor at EPFL Extension

Yes, an aperitif will be offered to the attendees: Pizza, beers, chips, popcorn & more. We’ll have quite some time to socialize. You don’t need to bring anything 🙂
