In 2026, the Living Documentation Event enters a new phase. While the organization of the conference continues under a new setup, the event remains firmly rooted in its original vision. Together with our Founding Partner, ICT Improve, we build on the success of five previous editions to take the conference to the next level. Fresh perspectives and new voices with the same strong commitment to high-quality, collaborative software development.

LDE is an annual professional conference for software development, testing, and business IT collaboration professionals. The event focuses on Living Documentation and Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) as ways to keep knowledge, requirements, and software continuously aligned.

You can expect:

• Insightful talks
• Interactive, hands-on workshops
• Sessions led by experienced practitioners, tool builders, and thought leaders from across the Netherlands and Europe

Consistently rated highly by attendees, LDE is a trusted platform for sharing insights and best practices within the community.

Whether you’re just starting out or are an experienced practitioner, there’s something for everyone at this event. And of course, the famous pizza party is back!
