Robot session 🤖 (Thursday, April 6th)
Do you like robots? Great! On April 6th, day two of ng-conf, Sebastian Witalec will be demonstrating how to build a robot army with NativeScript. The session is a great way to get up to speed on using bluetooth on the web and in NativeScript apps.

Emoji session 😎 (Friday, April 7th)
What could be better than robots and a rave party? Emoji! On April 7th, day three of ng-conf, Jen Looper, Tara Manicsic, and I will be demonstrating how to create a real-time cross-platform emoji service. We’ll be showing off how to use Angular in Kendo UI, how to build robust charts and graphs, and how to use Firebase to make everything update in real-time. Plus, we promised costumes for this one, so you won’t want to miss that.

Our booth 🎉
We’re going to have a booth at ng-conf again this year, and if last year is any indication our booth is a pretty hip place to be. Stop by and say hi, and pick up some swag for your favorite Progress products.
