Pre event info Your Assistant Organizer, Wo King, sent the following message to some members of Cornwall Digital Meetup Group: Hi,

Thank you for showing your interest and support as we gear up for the first Cornwell Devfestt on Friday. We're looking forward to an exciting day developing in a brand new framework. You will at least walk away with a web app and most have created custom elements. There will be competitions, prizes and some exciting opportunities.
For each track, we ask that certain things are done prior to the day. This will ensure that everything is that bit easier for both you and us and ensure that things run smoothly.

Pre the Event:If you don't already have one open a Google Account

Next open a Free Firebase account via your Google Account. This is where you'll be hosting your webapp.

Lastly for people who want to do the Advanced Track then you need to create a Github account

If you need any help or have any questions then please post your queries and issues on this Slack channel . This same channel will also be the place for you to ask questions after the event also. Should you not have received your invite as yet please email to let me know.
