Jade User Group 2022
The theme for this year's Jade user group was ‘Reconnect’ - something we at Jade felt was important after the disruption of the past couple of years.
At this year's event, we heard from thought leaders as they shared the latest including applications of our mocking framework and WebSocket functionality, the Jade Platform's roadmap, and how well the Contec Group's MADCAP software operates using the Jade Platform. There was an update from both Skipton Building Society and Jade.
