Overview of Sessions and Videos from Web Summit 2019 in Lisbon

Web Summit Videos

The Videos from Web Summit have been posted to the Web Summit Vimeo Account.

However, I had difficulties finding some of the videos I was looking for.

That's why I created this little tool that fetches data from the Web Summit API as well as the Vimeo API and matches both together.

The output is a long list of Web Summit Talks together with the videos where I could match them.
