💬 What people said about 2026
👍 What worked
Swym’s Sakshi Gupta valued partner conversations and the welcoming developer community more than the announcements alone.
First-person partner account; commercial, self-selected and includes unofficial events around the two-day conference.
⚠️ Planning friction
Sakshi Gupta described an overloaded week of surrounding events and sleepless nights; the practical limitation was that nobody could attend everything.
Qualified scheduling criticism of the surrounding week, not a complaint about the two-day official programme.
