Field notes on headless CMS
Tomas Chmelevskij
Headless CMS systems are touted for their numerous benefits over traditional models, yet, akin to the old cartographer's warning 'here be dragons,' it's essential to navigate potential complexities, before embarking on this journey. This presentation will explore the less-charted territories of headless CMS, sharing experiences, insights, and strategic approaches for effectively managing these systems and transitioning from legacy models to this innovative paradigm.

19:20 ~ 19:40
Get started with generative AI
Adele Kuzmiakova
This talk will give you a quick and easy guide to getting started with Generative AI. We'll break down the basics – what it is, how it works, and why it's so powerful. Then, we'll walk you through the first steps of using Generative AI, from choosing tools to setting up a simple project. To wrap things up, we'll do a brief demo to show how you can create AI-generated content in real-time. By the end, you'll have a solid foundation to start exploring Generative AI on your own.

19:40 ~ 20:20
