Attendee: Magebit CEO and co-founder Arturs Kruze attended the conference for Magebit.

As a Hyvä Platinum Partner, Magebit was among the partners Hyvä welcomed in Amsterdam during the week of its five-year anniversary. For merchants, the day’s biggest news, a free Hyvä theme, lowers the cost of moving an existing store onto a faster Hyvä storefront. That is the conversation we came to have.

Highlights

• Hyvä goes open source: Hyvä celebrated five years and announced that, from version 1.4, the Hyvä theme is free and open source, with Hyvä UI sold as a separate product.
• Keynote: Anne and Esther Vedder told the story behind their brand in “No Guts, No Gold: the real story behind Vedder & Vedder”.
• Merchant stories: ANWB, with Tweakwise, on its route to digital success, and Lampgoedkoop, with Cream and Elovate, on rolling out four store views across Europe.
• AI and documentation: Peter Jaap Blaakmeer (Elgentos) on AI agents in an agency, and David Lambauer on how AI and community collaboration are reshaping Magento documentation.
• Performance: Karlijn Löwik (RUMvision) asked “How fast is fast enough?”, and Ivan Chepurnyi showed 400 domains running on one Magento instance for 200 EUR a month.
