Async (Web Tech Meetup)

IMPORTANT: The date and venue for the 2025 International Show 'n' Tell has changed to the second Thursday in November (13th) at Projects. Please check the address and location details (or have a look on Google Maps).

The November migration of the world's top web developers to the sunny city of Brighton & Hove can only mean one thing - ffconf 2025 is coming. So, it's time for another International Async Show n' tell! This year's installment will be on Thursday 13th November (the second Thursday in November).

If you're interested in giving a talk, we'd love to hear from you. It's the perfect opportunity to give a peek at your passion project, try out a lightning talk, or just share what's on your mind. You’ll have five minutes on the night to tell us about something… a project, a library, a technique, a story, or anything else about JavaScript, related tech (HTML, CSS, SVG, etc), or the wider world of web.

If you would like to grab a speaking slot, please leave a comment including:

• Your name
• Your main website, if you have one
• Where to find you on the socials
• A sentence or two about your talk
• Any relevant links
• Delete as appropriate:
• I have a live demo that I will need to run on my own machine
• I can provide slides/pre-recorded demos that are publicly accessible on the web

Ideally your talk should be available as slides on the web that can be accessed from another machine. If you have live demos it would be easiest for us (to avoid having to switch machines regularly and get the stream setup on each) if you pre-recorded these. If you cannot pre-record a demo, please note (in your comment) that you need your own machine to present.

We only have time for so many speakers, so if you'd like to secure a slot please leave your details on the meetup event - first come, first served. If on the day you feel like showing something off, we may have additional time due to cancellations, but we cannot guarantee it.

For a spot of inspiration, take a look at our International Show n' Tells in 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010.
