Cheers, LeAnn 🥂🎉 Event details: Hobart's favourite purveyors of spirited Italian food team up with their fellows on Little Bourke Street for an Amalfi-inspired Sunday feast. Federica Andrisani, Oskar Rossi and the team from Hobart favourite Fico are getting together with their fellow purveyors of contemporary Italian flavours this Festival to cook a lunch inspired by Federica and Oskar’s recent travels on the Amalfi Coast. “Fico’s creative embrace of Tasmanian produce is deeper, more interesting and tastier than ever, wrote the critics at the Gourmet Traveller Restaurant Guide back in August. “Where (nearly) 10 years might see some adopt cruise mode, owner-chefs Federica Andrisani and Oskar Rossi continue to surprise with both creativity and craft.” With those sentiments in mind, and with the dial pointed towards that most beautiful stretch of the coast of Campania, you can expect lemons, you can expect tomatoes at their peak, you can expect seafood – heck, there might even be pasta – but it’ll all be offered with that same creative spirit that make Fico and Ilaria such celebrated destinations for lovers of good food and wine. On their own, they’re exciting – together they’re incredible. Back it all up with the service that Tipo and Ilaria are known for, and drinks list packed full of good things and you’ve got a day full of sunshine and fun. MFWF- 2026.

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
