Hey everyone! The Call for Proposals for NixCon NA 2024 is officially open and we’re inviting you to submit proposals for talks and workshops. We’d love to provide you a platform for you to share your ideas, projects, and experiences with Nix and NixOS with the rest of the community.
You can submit your proposals at the following link: NixCon NA 2024 - CFP
The last day to submit proposals is December 31st, so there’s a little less than a month remaining. We know this isn’t much time, but we’re putting this together on a short timeline, so we need your help to make this event a success!
The conference will consist of two days:
- Day 1: Workshops. We’d like this to be an opportunity for new users and the Nix-curious alike to gain valuable experience using Nix to solve their problems. This is also an opportunity to get help and advice from experienced Nix users, which can be incredibly helpful when you’re getting started with Nix. Workshops will be 90-minutes each, and we plan to have multiple workshops running in parallel so that there’s a wide variety of topics for attendees to choose from at any point in time.
- Day 2: Talks. What’s a conference without talks? Talks will be given in a single track, and each talk will be 25 minutes. Again, we’d like this event to be accessible for those with little or no Nix experience, so we welcome introductory level talks that teach or explain Nix concepts that new Nix users struggle with.
As part of the submission process you will indicate whether you’re submitting a proposal for a talk or a workshop. Feel free to make as many submissions as you like to either or both categories.
Also, even though we want to make the event beginner friendly, advanced technical talks and workshops are still welcome!
