We've an exciting new format schedule for you this year! As well as the main Speaker track, where LiveCode Gurus will stand up and tell you about topics close to their hearts, we are offering a variety of interesting, hands on, short workshops, and a few longer ones. These workshops will be small intimate groups (limited to no more than 10 people) so that the session leader can assist you, interact, and answer your questions on the topic.
