Something that interested me this week

This week I MCed for CascadiaJS and the Headless Commerce Summit! The conferences were so fun. Some of the talks I heard were so motivating and inspiring, I’ve been reading articles and brainstorming tons of projects ever since. The CascadiaJS talks aren’t online yet, but the Headless Commerce Summit ones are, and I particularly enjoyed the case study talks and the walkthroughs on how to build with Vue and React.

My voice has been struuuggling since these events, but it was absolutely worth it, and I hope y’all check these conferences out next year!
