DevFest 2016
The most fun time of the year is around the corner. All the information shared and resources about DevFest 2016 can be found in this page. If you think there is a missing info, please ping [email protected].
September 1st to November 30st
DevFest should include at least one Firebase or PWA session this year. Both are exciting new technologies from Google. We would love it if you featured both. You are welcome to have sessions about other technologies.
If you are planning a speaker session based event you should consider, ideally, more than one track. You can consider code labs as a 'track'.
To be consider a DevFest your event should be at least 5 hours
👍 Firebase : https://codelabs.developers.google.com/?cat=Firebase
👍 Web : https://codelabs.developers.google.com/?cat=Web
👍 Cloud : https://codelabs.developers.google.com/?cat=Cloud
👍 I/O Codelabs : https://codelabs.developers.google.com/io2016
You can find all other code labs at [https://codelabs.developers.google.com]
You can also use the gContent for your code labs.

We always encourage diversity into all areas of expertise, especially in our communities. In a global level you should consider have more women as attendees, speakers and also organizers in your events. But we know there’s a lot of regional minorities who you should consider to empower/engage at your event too.
Aim 20% women attendees and 20% women speakers on the stage. You can collaborate with WTM chapters in your city.
Hashtags - use #DevFest16 without permutations. If you'd like to reference a community or a product, use additional hashtags (ex: #DevFest16 hosted by #GDGBangalore. Loads of #Firebase content. Register here:...)
Key product hashtags to include in relevant posts / for relevant events: #Firebase, #AndroidNougat, #PWARoadShow, #PhysicalWeb
You can find the Organizer guide here.
While registering your event on DevSite, use "DevFest" tag. If you will use gContent, please add "gContent" tag, too. You can add other product tags into your event if you include any. Find the tagging chart here.
