This year I had the pleasure of attending GitHub Universe 2022 in San Francisco, CA. Below are some of my highlights from the show including a podcast I recorded with Martin Woodward, GitHub's VP of Developer Relations.
During the keynote, they announced some cool stuff. A "Hey GitHub" command to control Copilot with your voice, the GitHub fund, a 60 million dollar fund to support oen soure dev tools, and 60 hours of free usage for everyone each month with Codespaces.

I’ve been to a handful of different conferences and have been attending big tech conferences since I was 12 and I genuinely think #GitHubUniverse had the most charismatic employees I’ve ever interacted with at any conference.

Hubot was pretty awesome. Plug in your GitHub username, and it'd find something cool about your account using the GitHub API, then spit out a prize!
