Bio

Michelle Sanver http://cl.ly/image/330g1e3w1m1K Michelle Sanver is president of PHPWomen, an inclusive & global network providing support within the PHP community. She also works as a software developer at Liip, based in Zürich, Switzerland.

Michelle loves anything community related and is a big advocate of Open Source. She is a code-passionate colourful geek and with more than 10 years of PHP experience she is eager to share her extensive knowledge.

Growing up with PHP

Year 2000 was the year of functions2.php. Today we write fully engineered Object Oriented software. All in the same language. PHP has grown and we as developers and people have grown with the new changes over the years. Let me show you what truly changed my life as I grew from PHP 4 to 7, let's grow further together.

Zürich is a melting pot of cultures and languages. Its mix of residents and tourists lead to unique combinations and every tech group inherits this diversity. Much like Zürich, our development community is also diverse in many aspects, from our origins and culture to our choice of framework and language.

ZürichPHP wishes to create a friendly environment for every developer it encounters, everyone should feel comfortable and safe in our events and online community. More than that we wish this community to be a meeting point, a place where you can come and make new friends.

This CoC is a formalization of our beliefs, it is here to offer to you, our member, the guarantee that we will do our best to provide you with a safe environment in which to grow your knowledge base and your network. For this we count on you also, to be aware of our inherent differences and to respect different opinions and cultures, to be respectful and kind to others.

Organizers of ZürichPHP reserve the right to remove any participant,

I was hesitant as to whether or not to publish this, but in an act to create awareness in a community where some people, including me, are left uncomfortable and no one notices, I decided to go ahead. Feel free to share your experiences too, to further spread awareness in our community, because awareness is the first step.

I noticed that I started being more and more reserved the more events I went to rather than the other way around. This worried me and I was up until late hours thinking, why is that?

What happens at the events may be part of that, so here I'm sharing to create awareness. Bear in mind that this is only a handful of things that happened to me at conference socials, to give you an idea as to why I'm nowadays inclined to only hangout with the people I know, or skip the conference socials all together.

When you notice that behaviour from me remember that: It's not you, it's me, feel free to say hi but please understand why I may be a bit shy at first.
