Dreamforce 2018 Session picks

Here are some of my current picks for Dreamforce 2018 sessions. I'm aiming for a mix of developer related topics in areas I want to learn more about plus anything that sounds informative. It isn't an exhaustive list and there are certainly some other session that I'll be adding.

Most important session that I'm definitely going to attend

I might be biased, but this session is on my must attend list.

Tell your friends, tell your neighbors, tell your family, bring your mum along. There will be something for everyone!
Who doesn't like pretty pictures, metadata, and a sprinkling of graph theory?

Keynotes

Meet The *'s

Apex

  • Everything that's Awesome with Apex
    Get a sneak peak into Apex plans, roadmap and how we are making secure development easier. We'll share some of our newest concepts (async Apex anyone?) and get your feedback on hot IdeaExchange features.
    👀Async Apex, maybe something to help with FLS and CRUD in managed packages. Yes please!
  • Test Your Visual Workflow and Process Builder Automations. I'm assuming there will be some Apex involved in this testing process.

Fun

  • Flood the Trailblazer Community Cove: Swag & Sticker Meetup
    Got too much swag or something you can't get home - swap it! Last year I gave a bunch of stuff away that I'd collected but couldn't actually put in my luggage. I'm looking at you oversized Codey. And the rose seed in soil that NZ customs would have opinions on.

Lightning

  • TODO - Need something to fill out this area to be a well rounded developer. Lightning Roadmap maybe?
