IndieWebCamp Nuremberg returns on June 27–28, 2026 for its fifth edition since 2016, once again hosted at tollwerkstatt — a space built for open, hands-on collaboration around the web.

An IndieWebCamp is a two-day barcamp for everyone who wants to take the web into their own hands: people who run their own websites, think about digital independence, or are simply curious about what's possible beyond the big platforms. The format deliberately combines open discussion with concrete making – because talking and building belong together.

Day 1: Sessions & Discussion The first day is all about exchange. In true barcamp fashion, anyone can propose a session, and the group collectively shapes the schedule. Topics range from: How do I publish content on my own site instead of handing it to platforms? How do open standards like Webmention, Micropub, or IndieAuth work? How do I build a digital home that truly belongs to me?

Day 2: Create Day The second day is for building, experimenting, and shipping. Whether it's a new feature for an existing personal site, a first blog, or a collaborative technical project – everyone works toward their own goals and demos what they've made at the end of the day.

Topics that regularly come up at IndieWebCamp Nuremberg include: data ownership and sovereignty, POSSE (Publish on Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere), personal websites and digital identity, open web standards and protocols, Webmention & linkback technologies, and web accessibility.

The camp welcomes everyone – from experienced developers to people just getting started with the IndieWeb. Prior knowledge is welcome but not required.
