Check out the schedule on the conference website to see what sparks your interest.

Hey Handmade folks,

We have incredible presentations waiting for you: talks, demos, fireside chats, and even an exclusive podcast premiere. Tickets are still available if youd like to support indie conferences like ours.

Hybrid, Always

Whether youre in person or online, were all sharing the same track. The entire conference is livestreamed for free.

  • In-person tickets get you access to the building, private chat server, and official Friday hangouts.
  • Online tickets include the private chat server, where you can ask live questions to speakers.

Check-in Details

Registration opens at 9:00 a.m. (Seattle Time) at the Nesholm Family Lecture Hall—not a minute sooner! This location can be found on your favorite Maps app. Please pull up your “General Admission” email with the QR code to check in.

Ill personally welcome and scan you in until Im on stage—then my staff will take over. Youll get a VIP bracelet and, if its your first time, a Handmade Seattle wristband (bring yours if youre a veteran!). The bracelet means no repeated scans, which keeps things smooth.

Job Booths

Virtually every company I reached out to asked me to try again in 2025, but we secured two job booths with many open roles worth checking out (see the companies on the private chat server)!

Even if you dont match a position perfectly, please apply anyway.

If youre a thoughtful programmer who values quality, youre ahead of the game. If you don't get hired, you'll make important connections or get serious advice for your next steps.

No Trade Show, But…

To keep our event financially viable in 2024, theres no in-person trade show this year. Instead, well have dedicated channels in the private chat server for job booths and demos.

Every company or demoer that's attending in-person will make appearances on stage so you'll know who they are during lunch breaks and hangouts!

Handmade Seattle isnt just surviving; itll thrive again—storms and all. Some doubted wed make it this far, but here we are.

Weve weathered COVID, and well weather this economy too. (Also seriously buy an umbrella.)

Your organizer,
Abner
