About us
Karibu Kotlin Kenya meetup group! We are a collective bunch of lovely people from all different backgrounds interested in this fun(ctional) language that is taking the programming world by storm (well, at least in the JVM arena!) In this group we will meet periodically to make this language and its ecosystem known. If you like to program and look for a more modern alternative to develop applications for the JVM, join!
Come join us and learn more about this neat language, the ecosystem surrounding it and what Kotlin can do for you! We hope to have interesting presenters/talks and presentations on a regular basis...please do shout up if you would like to see something related to Kotlin.
We chat here also: https://t.me/kotlinKenya

## 🎤 Speakers & Sessions
### ⌚ Chronos: Under the Hood
Speaker: Felix Biego
Ever wondered what it takes to build a smartwatch companion app? In this session, Felix takes us behind the scenes of Chronos, exploring the architecture and engineering decisions that power the project. Learn how BLE communication, protocol reverse engineering, translation workflows, and watchface verification come together to build a scalable and reliable companion experience.### 💬 Panel Discussion: Beyond the Code – Building Products That Users Love
As engineers, it's easy to focus on architecture, frameworks, and the latest technologies. But how do those technical decisions translate into real value for users?
Join our panel as we discuss the balance between engineering excellence and product thinking—how to prioritize features, understand customer needs, navigate technical constraints, and make decisions that lead to better products.
Panelists:- Annunziata Kinya
