The Date is Set for JoomlaDay Chicago 2020

We are pleased to announce that the date has been set for JoomlaDay Chicago 2020.  It will be on Saturday, October 17th at DePaul University Loop Campus.  We've checked and the Chicago Marathon is the weekend BEFORE, so we should not have any issues with street blockage due to pre-event activities.  

What is Joomla?

Joomla! is an open-source, community-built, comunity-supported content management system.  It can be used for many types of sites and comes with many features in it's core, lessening the need for extensions. (for more information see: joomla.org)

JoomlaDay Chicago is a day (or more) where Joomla! developers, designers and enthusiasts come together to share knowledge and connect with other Joomlers.  This event is held in Chicago, but is open to anyone who wants to participate.  Past events have included sessions for beginneers through advanced users, bug squash, the Joomla! exam, and more.

What should I attend JoomlaDay Chicago?

It is a chance for participation in the Joomla Community.  Events like JoomlaDay Chicago are organized by local volunteers who are passionate about sharing Joomla! knowledge, maintaining and growing the Joomla community both locally and beyond.

Why should I sponsor JoomlaDay Chicago?

This event and others like it are non-profit, self-funded, where the monies raised go directly towards the event to cover the expenses for the event (think food, venue, a/v). By becoming a sponsor, it is also a great way to show your support to and for the Joomla Community as well as an opportunity to connect with Joomlers.

Why should I present at JoomlaDay Chicago?

Presenting at JoomlaDay Chicago is a great way to show support for the Joomla community and share your experience.  You don't have to be an expert nor a developer.  You also don't have to have all of the answers.  As you share your topic of interest, others my have offer suggestions you haven't thought of.  The best part is seeing how by sharing your thoughts, you've helped someone else.
