We're so proud to be partners with Artisan Build at Tek! Artisan Build cares about supporting developers, both in helping you build better code and keeping you excited about your work, and we're happy have them be a part of Tek's foundation this year!

Our team is passionate about creating a community-led space at Tek (and beyond). @packagist.com is another 2026 partner and is made up of people just as invested in our community as we are, bringing us great tools from people who understand PHP. Thanks from Chicago, team! 🐘🧡

We will be livestreaming Lilah Jones's keynote this morning to phptek.tv at 9:00am CDT. You may have caught Lilah on the Community Corner podcast earlier this year-- now is your chance to hear more of her strategies on how to remain confident in high-stress situations.
Good morning from Day Two! The hotel has let us know that we're able to be back in the ballroom this morning, so please double check the rooms for your talks today. (Updates will also come through the PHP Tek Attendee app if you have notifications on!)
Our apologies to our virtual attendees who haven't been able to access the stream. Due to unforeseen circumstances with the hotel, we're having difficulty getting all of our technological ducks back in a row. We'll keep you updated as things change! 🤞🏼
Unfortunately, we haven't figured out how to read minds (yet). Show us what parts of Tek make your camera roll! Tag @phparch.com in your posts this week and help us see Tek through your eyes! 📷 📸 📷
