GitHub is organizing an innovative event called GitHub Universe, blending elements of a festival and a conference to engage anyone passionate about software development. Scheduled for October 1-2, 2015, at Pier 70 in San Francisco, the event aims to unite the entire software community, from independent developers to large teams, and from open-source projects to commercial applications, to explore software design, development, and deployment. Attendees will experience a vibrant community atmosphere, hear from leading industry speakers, participate in in-depth training and immersive activities, and learn about the latest updates from GitHub. Updates and announcements about the event, including ticket sales and speaker details, will be shared on the GitHub blog and the GitHub Universe conference website.
