LLVM Developers' Meeting

The US LLVM Developers' Meeting is one of the largest compiler conferences in the world, bringing the LLVM Project community together each October in the heart of Silicon Valley. Organized by the LLVM Foundation and community volunteers, it unites developers and users of LLVM, MLIR, Clang, and related subprojects from across the globe.

So much of what makes open source work happens in person. Meeting the people behind the patches, putting faces to usernames, and having unplanned conversations are what turn a distributed project into a thriving community. 

Whether you're a first-time attendee or a longtime contributor, you'll find:

  • In-depth technical talks from contributors across the LLVM ecosystem
  • Informal, impromptu discussions that can only happen when the community is in the same room
  • Connections with fellow developers and users that last well beyond the event

For future announcements or questions, please visit the LLVM Discourse forums.
