Very few projects start by aiming for complexity, yet very few manage to keep things simple. Simple isn't easy and during this talk I will present ways of evaluating, caring and maintaining a stack over the years while keeping in mind simplicity. I will also cover some of the work we did at Splice to reduce the growing complexity of the stack, the challenges we faced and compromises we had to make.

As CTO and Co-Founder of Splice, he found a way to mix his passions: software, music and entrepreneurship. Matt is based in Santa Monica, CA where he likes building robots with his daughter, playing with sound gear with his son and enjoying a good meal with his wife.
