What a great 2 days of Umbraconess. Managed to scratch most itches, caught up with friens, and saw the best set of talks. Well done to the @umbUKfdn team for putting it all together. And I have a new one for my collection.

Interesting day at #umbUKfest. Most impressive was @jason showing how to use modern JS to do *current* #umbraco backoffice development with modern JS, hiding the AngularJS. #h5yr

Wonderful ~36 hours at #UmbUKFest! Sometimes it’s hard to describe just how brilliant the @umbraco community is without experiencing it for yourself so here’s your call to action… join a meetup, go to a conference, write a blog post, create a PR, share your experience in your company and make some new friends! #NotACult

Making super performant websites with #umbraco can now be done purely by Front-end Developers. ⁦‪Today at #umbUKFest the friendly @louie showed how to do so with AstroJS utilizing the new Umbraco DeliveryAPI. Well done!

Some excellent quick tips from Rachel Breeze on how to unstick yourself on tricky bugs in the next talk at #umbUkFest this afternoon, but also not to forget the importance of self care. Can any developer honestly say they have never been in this position?
