- The Shape of Things to Come - Outside the Box with Modern CSSRunway East Brighton, Brighton
On Thursday 7th August we're very happy to be joined by Noam Rosenthal. Noam works for Google in the Chrome team, currently focusing on paint/compositing/rendering. He is the editor of the CSS shapes and borders specs.
shape(), corner-shape, border-shape - three new features in CSS, one shipped in multiple browsers, one shipped in chromium very soon, one in the works.
We will understand what ideas they help express, how they work, how they complement each other and what's missing.
🍕 Pizzas provided by our venue! Runway East has been fighting boring offices since 2014. Members get team bliss guaranteed with space to scale. Learn more.
🍻 BYOB: We are currently looking for additional sponsorship. This event will likely not have a sponsor for drinks, so if you'd like to have a couple during the event please bring some of your own (and maybe some to share if you're feeling generous).
In-person attendees: Please arrive at Runway East (ground floor) between 19:00 and 19:15 for refreshments and socializing. Make sure you are registered to attend so we have an idea of numbers for catering.
Remote attendees: We will start broadcasting the event at 19:30 online (link added closer to the event), there is no need to register.
Don't forget to join the Async Slack for updates.
