twoday Aarhus, Søren Frichs Vej 44D, 8230 Åbyhøj, Aarhus, DK

9 RSVPed


OBS: Bemærk ny dato! Vi har desværre for få tilmeldinger til eventet på onsdag den 25. marts - I dialog med Umbraco HQ har vi sat en ny dato der er onsdag den 22. april 2026.

Kalder alle Umbraco entusiaster i Aarhus og omegn! Vi mødes til en hans-on, afslappende hackathon, hvor vi bygger med og lærer om Umbraco's AI og hvordan vi kan bruge AI til at bygge Umbraco. Om du er AI expert eller bare nysggerig, så er du velkommen :-)

Eftermiddagen vil gå med at bygge en "AI-Powered" pakke til Umbraco. Du kan bruge AI som en sparringspartner, for at gå fra idé til prototype. Men det er op til dig, hvordan du ønsker at arbejde og udforske AI i denne sammenhæng.

Der vil være eksperter fra Umbraco HQ til stede fysisk samt på en Discord kanal igennem eventet, som man kan spare med og få hjælp af, hvis man sidder fast.

Det er Emma Burstow og Sebastiaan Janssen, der vil stå for at føre os sikkert igennem dagens program.

Denne hackathon er en god mulighed, for at få indsigt og lære nyt i fælleskab med andre Umbraco community members og Umbraco HQ. Hvem ved, måske kan din idé til en pakke, ligefrem ende med at vinde en Umbraco Awards til CodeGarden?

OBS! Husk at medbringe din egen laptop, lader og selvfølgelig din nysgerrighed og et par idéer til en pakke.

Der vil være lidt forplejning i løbet af eventet i form af vand, kaffe, sodavand, snacks og lidt aftensmad.

Gibe Digital, Unit 1.8, Paintworks Central Trading Estate, Bristol, GB

10 RSVPed


Hello fellow Umbracians,

In the greatest redemption story of all time Carl Sargunar will be sharing his demo from Umbraco Spark, hosted by Gibe at their offices in Paintworks, Bristol with the usual food and drink provided.

The talks for the evening will be:

  • "DDoS My Desk: Load Balancing Live and Uncut!" by Carl Sargunar Bringing the cloud to the conference, I'll replicate in miniature a scalable, load-balanced environment to host containers and demonstrate concepts around Load Balancing in a fun and interactive way! Using a cluster of mini-computers, a router and some networking magic (and with a healthy sacrifice to the demo gods), we'll re-create a cloud in a mini-cluster and see how it copes with scaling, load-balancing, outages and downtime. There will be audience participation, there will be live demos, there will almost certainly be chaos but you'll learn key concepts needed to understand how load balancing will help you build resilient and scalable apps while having fun at the same time!

Agenda:

  • 🚪 18:00 - Doors open
  • 🍕 18:15 - Food and drinks
  • 🗞️ 18:30 - Welcome/news
  • 🗣️ 18:45 - Talks commence
  • 🏠 21:00 - Home-time

Hope to see you there!

Målet for dagen er enkelt: Å utvikle spennende AI-funksjoner og pakker på toppen av Umbraco.AI.

Du kan bruke AI som en sparringspartner for å gå fra idé til prototype – men hvordan du jobber, er helt opp til deg. Vi stiller med innsikt, støtte og rammer, så du kan fokusere på å skape. Det vil være eksperter fra Umbraco HQ tilstede, samt en Discord kanal for eventet, slik at man kan sparre og få hjelp av hvis man sitter fast.

Dette er en unik mulighet til å lære, eksperimentere og skape sammen med andre i Umbraco-miljøet – og kanskje utvikle en idé som kan nå hele veien til CodeGarden. Vi håper å se deg der! 🚀
