Description:

SLIM (Structured Low-bandwidth Information Markup) is a new web standard(?) designed for situations where bandwidth, latency, or infrastructure resilience truly matter. This talk introduces the core principles of SLIM, explains why traditional web models break under degraded or disrupted networks, and demonstrates how text-first design dramatically improves reliability—from disaster recovery to satellite links to industrial plants. Attendees will learn how SLIM works today, how it complements modern web stacks, and why resilient communication needs a minimalist path forward
