About WhatBroke

Production stories back at the center of technical communities.

WhatBroke was created to bring production stories back to the center of technical communities. Too often, engineering events focus on polished outcomes and ideal architectures.

But the most valuable lessons come from the challenges teams encounter along the way — the incidents, trade-offs, security decisions, and unexpected failures that shape real-world systems.

The goal is simple: create a trusted space where practitioners can learn from each other's experiences and build stronger systems together.
