Preface
On December 10th, DevFest is coming again! The light of trend and technology blooms at the same time. As a developer who is passionate about technology, I am fortunate to participate in this event. I am also very honored to be able to work with 300,000 developers online and more than 1,000 developers offline. This year coincides with the 25th anniversary of DevFest. Let’s witness this technological prosperity together. Personally, I feel that this is not only an in-depth exchange on technology, but also a long-awaited communication event that GDGers are fascinated by. It only happens once a year, so everyone is very much looking forward to this day. As an annual event that conveys love and dedication, Google DevFest is worthy of this technology-rich and passionate Google family. At the 2023 Google Developer Community DevFest event, I gained a lot of understanding about new technologies, as well as popular technical points currently popular in the technology circle; while attending the event, I also met many old friends at the event, and met many new people. Friends, the most important thing is that I finally had a successful “interview” with the head of GDG, Mr. Feng Fei, as well as Sister Ping of GDG, and many volunteers and staff of GDG, who said that my network resources have been greatly expanded again. So this article will share my personal insights and insights from participating in the 2023 Google Developer Community DevFest. While participating in the conference, I also gained a clearer understanding of the future of technology, which I would like to share with you.
About GDG
According to the official introduction of GDG, Google Developer Groups is a global project initiated by Google's developer department. It is a public welfare developer community for people who are interested in Google and open source technology. GDG Shanghai was founded in 2009. It is one of the most active and well-known technology communities in the global GDG community. It holds 30 to 50 large and small technology activities every year, affecting the development of hundreds of thousands of people in the Yangtze River Delta region centered on Shanghai every year. researchers and technology professionals. To be honest, after reading the introduction of GDG, I really want to join (crazy hint to GDG official).
Highlights from the main venue
The main venue of Google DevFest will provide forward-looking and exciting sharing, mainly focusing on GenAI, smart travel, data security, mobile development technology and other fields. Many guests gave exciting speeches, and all participants discussed key technology trends. When the author participated in the main venue event that morning, I benefited a lot from listening to the guests share cases and look forward to the future, discuss the trend of technology upgrades, and provide intelligent solutions to show their deep insights into technology. I felt that the scene Participants should have the same feeling as me, that is, through these wonderful sharings, they can grasp insights and ignite their own inspiration for innovation. Later, they can start a journey of co-creating the future. This is mainly to bring benefits to every participant of this event. Deep insights and inspiration for application/use.
The branch venue is full of useful information
In addition to the wonderful speeches at the main venue that morning, Google DevFest also has multiple sub-venues, which mainly cover topics such as AIGC, parent-child AI programming interstellar journey, Android and large front-ends, and overseas acceleration. There are very rich forms of activities, and a whole The content of Tian's activities made every participant feel very satisfied, but they still had more to say, because the participation in each activity was very high, and everyone improved their new understanding of technology by participating in specific activities. Moreover, these sub-venues provide a wealth of practical content, giving every participant the opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of key technology areas, learn the latest developments, and acquire practical technical knowledge. Regardless of whether the participating developers are interested in artificial intelligence, mobile development, overseas markets or large front-end fields, they can find their own points of interest here and have in-depth exchanges with industry experts.

A journey to create the future together
Developers who know GDG should know that Google DevFest aims to help participants gain insights, ignite innovation inspiration, and start a journey to create the future together. Through interactions with other developers, participants will have the opportunity to meet like-minded people. Build meaningful partnerships and explore innovative possibilities together. I personally feel that this is an opportunity not to be missed. It is a very cool thing to be able to discuss technology, share experiences, and build the future technology landscape with developers from all over the world. Moreover, as a developer, there are limitations in the use and learning of technology in daily work. By participating in technology conferences and having in-depth exchanges with other developers, it is also a disguised improvement of one's own technology. Listen to the guests share their views on the cutting-edge Sharing technology is also an effective way for participants to learn cutting-edge technologies.
Conference experience
As a technology developer, I have also participated in various technical conferences. Looking at the conferences I have attended, Google-related conferences are not only superior in details, but also commendable in terms of sharing technical knowledge. Looking at the details of the conference, there is a considerate shuttle service. If you are driving by yourself, there will be a dedicated free parking area, giving everyone a feeling of going home. The check-in area of the conference and the volunteer services in various places within the venue are very considerate, especially the drinks and snacks that everyone needs are provided at each support station. Every detail is reflected. There is also the guest sharing arrangement at the main venue of the conference. I think it is very good. It covers various fields and is very reasonable. Moreover, the speeches of the sharing guests are also vivid and full of useful information, so that the participants can gain a lot. In addition, each branch venue is also full of useful information, which can mobilize the enthusiasm of every participant from various places. Especially the parent-child AI programming activities are the most popular, allowing everyone to see the hope of future programming successors. The commemorative peripherals of the conference are indispensable. Almost all developers who come to the conference can receive the commemorative peripherals of the conference. They only need to complete tasks and check in to get them. The lottery link at the event attracts everyone's participation because you can draw A one-day trip ticket to Google's Shanghai office is a prize that Google fans are looking forward to, and it is also a prize that technical people are looking forward to. Personally, I feel that I gained a lot from participating in this event. It is a worthwhile trip and I look forward to the next event.
