Save the date: Onsite Meetup in Frankfurt on May 6th
It has been a while here — at least since we met “in real”, hasn’t it? In the last years, our community activities have been mostly virtual. But now we are happy to announce that we are back with an in-person event again! 🎉
Meet like-minded people, enjoy some drinks and snacks and learn something new. Back to the roots, how Frontend RheinMain started over 10 years ago.
We’re thrilled that Codecentric is kindly hosting us in their office in Frankfurt on May 6th. 🙌
So, let’s get out of our “home office zombie mode” for a few hours and meet in person again. 🧟
Please register on Meetup , so we can plan accordingly.

Talk 1: “The Future is Styled: CSS You’ll Actually Want to Use” by Philipp Jardas (codecentric)
Let’s be real—CSS used to be kinda frustrating. But the new stuff? It slaps. In this fun, fast-paced talk, Philipp checks out some of the freshest CSS features like container queries, subgrid, native nesting, and color magic that’ll make you say “wait, we can do that now?!” No JS hacks, no preprocessors—just pure, modern CSS goodness.
Talk 2: “My browser can do WHAT! New, underestimated and unknown frontend web standards” by Peter Kröner
Does your frontend project really need over 9000 dependencies and workarounds for every little thing? Probably not in 2024, because web standards now offer turnkey solutions for numerous everyday problems in all browsers - but most developers have never heard of these solutions. And that’s exactly what this session is for! We will take a closer look at various web standards that can be of value in any project - unfortunately, marginal APIs and poorly supported features will have to be left out. Instead, we’ll be looking at dependency killers such as the Compression Streams API, workaround destroyers from the Intl standard and accessibility bonuses that the latest HTML features bring with them. Each feature will be motivated by a common use case, demonstrated and put into the context of related features.
See you soon!
