THE CALL FOR SPEAKERS FOR THE COMMIT YOUR CODE CONFERENCE IS OFFICIALLY LIVE!

We will have 6 tracks and over 100 speakers!

- In 2025 we had 860 in person and 8,100 attend virtually.
- We had 125 Speakers
- 37% of attendees worked in tech and it was their first conference ever!

I met a software developer with over 10 years of experience who said it was their dream to go to a specific tech conference but they couldn't afford to go.

That's when I realized there are devs with experience that do not have access to resources because of income.

Here's what you don't realize:

Donation to operation kindness for $7.700.58

Donation to St. Jude for $7.700.58

As you know with @commityourcode.bsky.social I like to be 100% transparent with EVERYTHING.

For #CYC25, A full financial post-mortem is coming soon, but we are supporting three charities this year instead of 2!

St. Jude Children's Hospital
Operation Kindness
and FreeCodeCamp

The bright facility has blue and yellow walls, tall white pillars, and high ceilings with overhead lights."

A group of people lined up side by side on an indoor pickleball court, holding paddles and waiting for their turn to play. The facility has bright blue walls with large yellow accents, tall white pillars, and high ceilings with overhead lights. Some people are playing on nearby courts in the background.

Close-up of a novelty black T-shirt with the word 'PickleBall' at the top in blue letters. The shirt features two illustrated faces of men looking surprised at a large blue pickleball in the center. The ball has pink text that reads, 'I WENT TO CYC & HAD A BALL.' Below, the tagline says, 'If you can code a pickleball… you can pickleball a code.'

The @commityourcode.bsky.social Pickleball event for Day[0] was a HUGE SUCCESS!

We even had a pickleball pro guiding newer players with a group lesson! I guess you could say it was a... Smashing success 😂 pun absolutely intended!

Also this shirt by Jake is actually amazing 😂😂😂

@commityourcode.bsky.social offered more than a stage; it fostered deep connections within our community.

This year, we gathered with Torc ambassadors and members and consistently heard about:

✨ Genuine support
✨ Meaningful conversations
