This week, we attended MD DevDays 2026 in Magdeburg, spending three fantastic days with the developer community. This year was especially memorable.

With over 900 people signed up, MD DevDays set a new record, showing once again how much the event has grown over the years. The expo area was filled with exhibitors from across the industry, and we were proud to participate as the conference's main sponsor.

From the moment we set up, the atmosphere was exactly what makes this event unique: Developers everywhere, technical discussions in the hallways, speakers reconnecting with friends, packed sessions, and a busy exhibitor area.

A Community-Driven Conference

MD DevDays stands out because it never feels artificial or overly corporate. It feels like a conference built by developers, for developers. The conversations are technical, honest, and direct. Attendees come to learn, exchange ideas, discuss architecture, and discover new technologies. That is exactly why we keep coming back every year.

At our booth, we had countless discussions about enterprise document processing, PDF workflows, browser-based editing, AI integration, MCP servers, and deployment scenarios for modern business applications.

One recurring topic was the growing demand for alternatives to legacy document processing solutions. Many attendees stopped by specifically to compare technologies, licensing models, and integration experiences.

Why We Love MD DevDays

Conferences like MD DevDays are far more than just marketing events. The real value comes from direct conversations with developers and architects who are building real-world systems every day.

You hear where projects fail.

You learn which technologies teams are replacing.

You understand deployment pain points.

And you see upcoming trends long before they become mainstream.

Those discussions are incredibly valuable for product development and roadmap planning because they come directly from the people using these technologies in production environments.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to the organizers, volunteers, speakers, and attendees who made this event possible.

Organizing a conference with record attendance and a completely packed expo hall requires a tremendous amount of effort, and the entire MD DevDays team did an outstanding job.

The speaker lineup was exceptional this year, creating the kind of atmosphere that makes this conference valuable to the community. The combination of technology, community, and personal interaction is what makes events like MD DevDays so important.

Attendee Party

Once again, we sponsored the beer for the attendee party and decided to have some fun with it. Rather than just putting our logo on a sign, we created a few developer-themed beer specials for the evening.

The attendee party was packed, perfectly capturing what makes community conferences like MD DevDays special. Developers, speakers, exhibitors, organizers, and attendees were all together in one place, continuing discussions long after the sessions ended. Some of the best conversations at conferences don't happen on stage. They happen in the evening.

There were ideas, projects, discussions about architecture, startup stories, future collaborations, and plenty of laughs.

We were happy to support that part of the event again this year.

Below are a few more impressions from the conference. We hope to see you next year at MD DevDays 2027!
