More to follow, but we (@kayla.ooo and @richard.sween.dev ) want to thank everyone who was a part of #MagnoliaConf this year. It was so great bringing everyone to Jackson for a week of code, cauldrons, and cornbread.

Videos will be edited and posted to YouTube soon!

posting this here because I feel like we’re all buddies

if you want to come to @magnolia.boo and you’ve been laid off or are otherwise unemployed or just need some help, holler at me or @richard.sween.dev.

as long as you can make it to Jackson, we don’t want the cost of tickets to be a barrier 💙

Our merch doesn't represent the conference, it channels its energy. Wear an Anti JavaScript JavaScript Club shirt... suddenly you're 3x more likely to solve that impossible bug. Science? Magic? Both? 🔮

Hey y'all, my favorite conference, @magnolia.boo , needs sponsors.

It has the best food, supports an under-served community, and as the inaugural costume contest winner, I can say it has the best costumes!

Sponsorships start at $500, so send this to your company:

Shoutout to Zapier for having the most thoughtful first-round rejection email I’ve ever gotten. Listed the criteria they used to evaluate candidates and linked to other remote job listings at their partner companies. 11/10 will apply again.
