Ember has technology’s most loveable mascot. He’s approachable, thoughtful, and never takes himself too seriously. Our community is like that too. In this talk, we’ll learn the story of Tomster: where he came from, how he’s grown, and what he represents. Then we’ll zoom out and see how the minds that gave us Tomster have carefully crafted a framework for creating communities like ours. Finally we’ll zoom back in again to see how to use that framework on a local scale to grow the Ember community worldwide.
