Mantas Urbonas
I started coding with ZX-Spectrum, and ever since I see the world from the eyes of a programmer. Despite years in business and leadership, I passionately enjoy being in the zone with C++, Java, Typescript and good object-oriented design.
Sessions
We decided to make a coding cool for the young generation … and created a modern gamelike online tool for kids to explore programming. In this talk we’ll talk about the bumpy road we had during this fantastic journey. Morally, the mission was about modernising the approach to teach coding. Technically, it threw us on a neck breaking adventure from hacking a compiler to writing a high scalability SaaS platform to making Python wrappers around 2D JS game engine to writing serverless lambda functions on Azure and what not.
