What is Developer Week? (Link)

“DeveloperWeek 2020 is San Francisco’s largest developer conference & event series with dozens of week-long events including the DeveloperWeek 2020 Conference & Expo, 1,000+ attendee hackathon, 1000+ attendee tech hiring expo, and a series of workshops, open houses, drink-ups, and
city-wide events across San Francisco!”

Who developed Developer Week?

This conference was able to occur due to DevNetwork, which is an organization that was founded by developers and engineers who wanted to “make innovations in web, mobile, and data development less scary to investors, media, and business executives.” They believe that “EVERYONE should acquire some development skills: whether that’s the ability to single-handedly build a social application in Python or just edit the design of their WordPress blog.”
