Huge thanks to our friends Picnic!
At Picnic, we’ve been revolutionizing the way people buy their groceries since 2015 – and we’ve come a long way since then. We provide our rapidly-growing customer base with an affordable and sustainable service through cutting-edge technology, efficient planning, and a fleet of electric vehicles.
One of the main things that makes Picnic different is that we do almost everything in-house. Forecasting. Warehouse systems. Partnerships. Fleet strategies. Internal and external applications. We find it gives us more freedom when it comes to trying out new and innovative ideas!

🗣️ Talks

➡️ Eurovision 2021: Crafting a Performant & Accessible 3D Web Experience - Servin Nissen
When Eurovision 2021 went digital, we had to recreate Rotterdam as an interactive 3D experience on the web—balancing high-quality visuals with strict performance and accessibility requirements. This talk will break down how we tackled these challenges, from optimizing large 3D models to ensuring smooth performance across devices.

➡️ Enabling Real-Time Updates on a Server-Driven UI - André Bovolini and Mateus Villas Boas

• Enabling a server-side UI to update the server
• Replicating side effects based on the calls
• Updating the interface seamlessly in real time

➡️ Preparing and Developing for the European Accessibility Act (EAA) in 2025 - Rodney Wormsbecher
The European government has mandated that websites and web applications must be WCAG compliant by 2025. This means that in the rapidly evolving landscape of web development, ensuring the robustness and accessibility of a website is of ever-growing importance.
In this presentation, we will take a look at how to start writing user-friendly, high-quality, accessible websites for a variety of handicaps and assisted web browsers/tools. We will explore some of the most common ways to enable valid semantic aids for accessibility & usability and how to test WCAG compatibility.
