This year we'll have two parallel tracks covering four main areas:


🤖 AI & Machine Learning

Generative AI, Gemini & Gemma, AI Agents, Agentic Systems, RAG, Multimodal AI, On-device AI, MLOps, Responsible AI and AI-assisted development.


📱 Mobile

Android, Flutter, Kotlin, Kotlin Multiplatform, Jetpack Compose, Mobile Architecture, Firebase, On-device AI, Performance, Security and more.


☁️ Cloud & Backend

Google Cloud, Kubernetes, Serverless, Backend Development, APIs, Microservices, Databases, DevOps, Platform Engineering, Observability, SRE and Cloud Security.


🌐 Web & Developer Experience

Web Development, Angular, JavaScript & TypeScript, Web MCP, Web APIs, PWAs, Frontend Architecture, Web Performance, Developer Tools, Open Source and Developer Productivity.


Expect technical talks, real-world engineering stories, practical knowledge, new ideas, and plenty of opportunities to meet and connect with the local and international developer community.


DevFest is a global community-driven technology conference organized by Google Developer Groups. The 2026 theme is “Build, Secure, Scale: Developers and Builders in the Agentic Era.”


🎤 Call for Papers is officially OPEN!

We are looking for speakers who want to share their knowledge and experience with the community.


Whether you work with AI, Mobile, Cloud, Backend or Web — if you have an interesting technical story, something you've learned, built, researched, or even something that went terribly wrong and taught you a valuable lesson, we want to hear about it.


You don't have to be a Google technology expert. Real engineering experience and great technical stories are welcome.


Submit your talk and join us on stage at DevFest Linz 2026.
