Join Callum Whyte from Bump Digital as he dives into leveraging Azure's OpenAI Service and Semantic Kernel in .NET to create a custom AI Copilot. You'll learn how to train your own custom Codex model for generating code and commands to perform bespoke tasks against the Umbraco APIs.

Plus, discover innovative ways to integrate this with a seamless user experience in the new Umbraco 14 BackOffice.

By the end of this session, you'll be excited about the potential of custom Copilots and equipped with the knowledge to build your own for both pleasure and profit!

Engaging Presentation:

Callum's talk will provide a deep dive into the world of AI Copilots, focusing on practical applications and real-world examples. Expect an engaging and interactive session that will inspire you to explore the possibilities of AI within the Umbraco ecosystem.

Who Should Attend:

This meetup is perfect for Umbraco developers, tech enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the intersection of AI and content management. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned professional, this event offers valuable insights into the future of Umbraco and AI technology.

Why It's Worth Attending:

This meetup is more than just a talk; it's an opportunity to connect with the Umbraco community, learn from industry experts, and engage in meaningful discussions about the future of content management and AI. Expand your knowledge, meet fellow enthusiasts, and be part of the vibrant Umbraco community,

After a discussion at CODECABIN, we thought it might be fun to do something a little different for our October social and head to the Tyntesfield National Trust property.

We'll take a wander around the garden (dog friendly) and house (no dogs) including the "Uninvited Guest" expedition and other events. Either bring a picnic or choose to have some lunch in the cafe.

Please feel free to bring partners, children and dogs (please add humans as "guests" so we know numbers). Dogs cannot enter the house, but the cafe is dog friendly.

Entry and parking is free for National Trust members or pricing is available on the National Trust website. There are also a lot of deals available through various loyalty schemes you may be a part of. We might also be able to group "families" and "couples" together if people have spare passes.

Please consider car-pooling and taking the X6 bus to reduce parking costs and impact on the environment.

The attendee limit is set to 15 but it may be possible to increase this, so keep your eyes peeled if you miss out.

Talks

  • "Bake, Don't Fry - Astro & The Content Delivery API" by Adam Prendergast Are you ready to revolutionise your Umbraco development with the power of static sites? The Content Delivery API has opened a world of possibilities for headless applications, including allowing us to embrace swift, scalable pre-rendered sites. In this session, we'll dive into the concept of 'Bake, Don't Fry' and the world of static site generation, spotlighting Astro as a leading framework. We'll explore how to go from a basic Astro setup to introducing the Content Delivery API for a CMS-powered static site. We'll look at improving the developer workflow with TypeScript, streamlining the publishing process, and showcasing cost-efficient hosting solutions. I'll guide you through Astro code examples and show how you can enhance the development process, leaving you equipped to make informed decisions about integrating this innovative strategy into your projects. Adam's Socials: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-prendergast-8869862b/ Twitter/X: https://x.com/upandadam Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@prenders
  • "Umbraco + .NET Maui : A unified CMS for your website and app" By Carl Sargunar What's the easiest way of expanding your reach with your audience, especially if you already have a website? A smartphone app! Umbraco CMS, which now has multi-platform friendly features like the Content Delivery API, and support for webhooks make it easier for you to easily and simply add new content channels to your website. In this talk I'll go through how you can easily build and extend cross-platform mobile apps with .NET MAUI, the Multi-platform App User Interface, Microsoft's latest framework for mobile development. I'll cover how to use the content delivery API and webhooks to handle communication between your CMS and the mobile app, both pulling content via the API, and pushing via webhooks. There will be demos, there will be a public demo repository on github where you can see the code from this talk and there will be a general feel of Awesomeness and inspiration!
