Taco will bring a team of experts to join him, creating a multi-disciplinary team experienced in various aspects of building a website. In a panel-like setup, the team will invite the audience to share their websites with them. They’ll review a few sites live on stage. From experience, Taco knows that every website has things we can learn from, either because they’re doing things really well, or because there are things to improve. By using real-world examples, we provide direct value to those who are brave enough to give us their site, and to those who secretly wished they had the guts to put their site in our crossfire.
They will make sure that there’s a fine balance between compliments and improvements, and that several websites will be reviewed. If you want to increase the chances of your site being picked, please submit your website at https://prpl.fyi/wceu25-live-review before June 2nd!
