    The purpose of this record is to document the setup and execution of DIGICROP 2020 and to simplify conducting future online events of that kind. DIGICROP 2020 was a 100\% virtual conference run via Zoom with around 900 registered people in November 2020. It consisted of video presentations available via our website and a single-day live event for Q&A. We had around 450 people attending the Q&A session overall, most of the time 200-250 people have been online at the same time. This document is a collection of notes, instructions, and todo lists. It is not a polished manual, however, we believe these notes will be useful for other conference organizers and for us in the future.
