My First LiveCode Conference

This was the first LiveCode conference I attended and I was really excited. This year’s theme was around widgets, LiveCode 8 and open source. There were two tracks and a workshop each day.

On the first day there was a very popular networking event. It was awesome meeting so many members of the community. This was a chance for me to introduce myself to new people, and meet people with whom I talk every day in Bugzilla, the use-list or the LiveCode Forums. So I was finally able to put faces to names. Moreover, in the evening of the same day there was a party to follow, in the LiveCode office, where the fun continued with pizza, beer and games.

This is One Powerful Crowd

Over the last 13 months since being with LiveCode the strength and loyalty of this community has never failed to amaze me. We are a bigger & stronger community than we have ever been and that is very powerful. It means that all of us together can control the future of our product.

In 2013 we ran our first Crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and this is where we stood up and showed the world that the LiveCode community is here to make a difference. We are here to make a better coding experience and we are not stopping until we achieve that.

A few months ago Kevin Miller LiveCode CEO (my boss) approached me about running a crowd funding campaign to bring HTML5 Web Output into LiveCode. My first thought was not worry or fear, it was excitement. I was so impressed that we were making a decision to go big, we were not sitting back on our 2013 success, we were saying, well we ain’t done yet, so let’s make a better LiveCode and let’s do it now. My second thought came in the form of about a million questions and I want to try and take you through that journey now.
