18:00 - Greetings 🍕
Meet people, network, eat, and chill before the event begins. It's a fantastic opportunity to get to know each other.
18:50 - Introduction 💁
We regroup. Organizers briefly introduce the newcomers, and we thank the host.
19:00 - Quick Shares ⚡
Short presentations from the community. You can stand up and propose something if you want.
Typical interventions could be:
I want to say hi (3 seconds)
I discovered this new tool, here's the website, you should check it out (1 minute)
I've prepared a little presentation with a few slides (max. 10min)
19:30 - Round-table discussions 💬
Anyone can propose one or many subjects. We all vote on these topics and pick the ones with the most votes. Then we'll split into a few groups to discuss these.
You're free to stand up and change groups during the evening if you want to.
Examples of past topics:
What is the ideal work setup for devs at work? (e.g., local, cloud-based, hybrid, etc)
AI code editors, workflows + pros and cons
What are the soft skills a good developer should have?
Clean architecture VS feature-based architecture
How do you choose a backend technology?
How to handle the evolution of anemic model to DDD model?
Discussing how to prepare for and perform well on technical interviews when job hunting.
Monorepos: yay or nay? Pros, cons, tooling, and workflow
20:30 - Recap & closing
We regroup again. One person in each group does a short recap of what was discussed, so everyone gets a TL;DR of the different discussions.
Then we say goodbye and go home, full of joy and motivation, until the next meetup.
See you there! 😃
