Space Jam - Digging Up the Web’s Distant Past

Embark on a fascinating journey through web archaeology as Björn Ganslandt explores the enduring Space Jam website, largely unchanged since 1996, in this 26-minute conference talk from WeAreDevelopers. Discover concepts that have stood the test of time, those that were discarded, and others reemerging two decades later. Delve into the source code to gain insights into animated GIFs, backward compatibility, and the open web. Experience a celebration of web development history and its evolution, presented at the "Woodstock of Developers" event that brought together 8,000 techies from 70 countries for an immersive dev-focused experience.
