Summer, heat and holiday mood relax and make us forget about work. So we decided to help and remind of interesting conferences for developers that will be held in Russia in the second half of the year. And here we were interested in the question: why do people still go to conferences? For reports? After all, most conferences are then available online. For live communication with the same enthusiastic people? Maybe. And which of the upcoming conferences are you going to attend? At the end of the post, we did a survey to determine the most anticipated events in the community’s opinion. Welcome under cat.
