After a first thrilling edition here the second one is ended in no time. On the 9th and the 10th June took place the

 space. Demand to have the last year’s achievement was a too ambitious  objective, but I believe we went far above of the expectations. Speaking of numbers:

These numbers made us very proud of our job, although they are just leading figures of an event that have been, with influential contents, the feather in the cap.

This year, all the talks were about Magento2. Since the technical orientation of the event, it has been seen appropriate to involve exclusively the Present and the Future of the platform, without considering Magento1, although still in use from agencies.

As same as last year, the first day has been opened by 

‘s talk, Magento community Manager, with a range of suggestions and advises about the right way of predisposing ourselves for a Magento conference.

The persistent rhythm of the event puts the light on the 

 CTO, who shared his experience about the checkout refactoring in Magento2 using ReactJS; then 

 Senior Frontend Developer, who explained how the UI Components work and communicate with each other.

Another relevant talk has been the one from  

, End and Bitbull Senior Backend Developer, regarding Magento 2 and AMQP to optimise the performances and reduce the process.

The first day completed with the matter-of-course after party in the context of the park in Porta Venezia, at the Chiosco di Pippo where there has been the chance of networking, meeting old friends and taking opportunities for teams to build up, in the crisp evening atmosphere in the park.

The event has been split in two days to host, during the second day, the workshops led by  

. David, Sitewards Senior Software Architect, gave an interesting overture for Magento1 developers who are ready to step into Magento2 development, following new concepts proposed in the last platform’s version. Whereas, Max Pronko’s workshop, CTO in GiftsDirect & TheIrishStore, was oriented toward the development of strong systems of integrated payments with Magento 2.

A deserved gratitude goes to the sponsors who made possible this second edition of mage Titans Italy. I think everyone tried to open the
