The conference series born from a tweet is back, bringing you great speakers, unique talks – of course – the best craft beer London has to offer.

Scaling Craft: technology is best understood as a craft rather than an industrial process. The most effective web companies today encourage engineers to make decisions and establish cultures that work in delivering web scale experiences.

But how do you scale craft? 

Developer landgrabs such as agile development and devops attempt to do just that. The tools serve the operator rather than the other way around. Craft culture brings a mindset to technology development that is delivering impressive results- see firms like Etsy and Github as exemplars. This is the rich and fruitful territory we’ll address at Monki gras. What cultural hacks scale? What are the limits of craft, or automation? 

But what about knitting, craft beer, artisan cheese, and all the other craft stuff? Yeah- we’ll have some of that.
