    Title: “The Future of the Developer Tooling for Geospatial”
    Abstract: There's a lot of uncertainty on what is going to be the future for developers and developer tooling. Are low code or even no code frameworks going to replace full developers? Is AI going to take our jobs? How do we know which trend is the right one that we should jump in? Are we reinventing the wheel?

Should we be worried or is this the advent of a bright new future?
