About this Event

It takes a lot of rigor to be this fun. Join Mig Reyes and the Duolingo design team for an inside look at the systems, craft, and character work behind one of the most joyfully unhinged brands. They’ll share how a cast of characters, a playful motion language, and a diligent design system come together to keep millions of learners coming back every day.
Expect real talk about the process, the experiments, and the decisions behind those moments of delight, plus a few laughs along the way.
