What happened
Atlassian is reviving its Developer Day event as an in-person, multi-city tour for 2024. This series, called Developer Day on Tour, focuses on providing hands-on experience with Forge, Atlassian’s next-generation app development platform for its cloud products. Developers attending these events will participate in expert-led sessions and guided app-building workshops.
The tour starts in Bangalore, India on July 20, 2024, followed by a stop in Seoul, South Korea on August 28, 2024, with registrations opening soon for both. These free conferences aim to engage developers by combining technical training with community social events organized by local Atlassian Community Chapters.
Why it matters
Forge enables developers to create powerful custom apps hosted on Atlassian’s managed infrastructure, extending the functionality of tools such as Jira and Confluence. As cloud adoption grows, mastering Forge is becoming a critical skill for developers and partners working within the Atlassian ecosystem.
By taking Developer Day on the road, Atlassian is strengthening its reach into rapidly growing tech markets and supporting local developer communities. This initiative promotes skill development, collaboration, and networking opportunities—three key drivers for accelerating innovation in SaaS app development.
What to watch next
Developers interested in attending should monitor the Atlassian Developers ACE group and local Atlassian Community Chapters for registration updates and additional event details. Carrying a laptop and readiness to code will maximize the value of the workshop experience.
Looking beyond the upcoming stops in Bangalore and Seoul, the community should anticipate further announcements about additional tour locations and related developer initiatives. Continued engagement through online forums and meetups will help attendees deepen their Forge expertise and connections within Atlassian’s developer ecosystem.
