For the 8th edition, **DevOops** is teaming up with **Amsterdam.dev**, and once again, we're happy to be **hosted by [Datadog](https://www.datadoghq.com)**!

Join us for an evening of tech, talks, and connection!

Whether you're a seasoned dev, a curious newbie, or somewhere in between, this meetup is all about sharing ideas, solving problems, and sparking inspiration. We’re bringing together a community of tech enthusiasts to chat about what’s new, what’s next, and what’s just plain cool.

Expect great conversations, lightning talks, and a chance to meet people who love building, breaking, and fixing things as much as you do.

🍕 Snacks, drinks, and good vibes included.

**Agenda:**

18.00 – Walk-in/Doors open 🚪
18.30 – Food & Drinks 🍕🥤
19.00 – Welcome
19.15 – **Building Developer Experience through Open Source Programs and Policies** by **Ayodeji Ogundarem (Adyen)**

Open source is more than shared code—it’s a foundation for better software development. This talk explores how structured open source programs and well-crafted policies improve developer experience both within organizations and across open source communities.Inside teams, open source workflows reduce friction, encourage code reuse, and speed up onboarding. Across communities, clear governance, licensing, and contribution models foster collaboration and build trust.

You’ll hear lessons from organizations like Google, Red Hat, Spotify, and Shopify—where open source is central to their engineering and business strategy. We’ll cover how to design and maintain open source programs that improve tooling, drive collaboration, and contribute to business goals.

19.45 – Break 🥤🚽
20:00 – **Chat with your codebase with Candle and Tree-sitter** by **Pratim Bhosale (Treblle)**
In this talk, we'll try to understand how AI coding tools help us chat with code and why Rust for ML makes sense. We'll understand tools like Candle and Tree sitter along with concepts like Chunking, HYDE, Reranking, Embedding, ANN which are crucial to Machine Learning and building search tools.

Questions we'll discuss and find answers to:
1\. Why is querying large codebase difficult?
2\. How to parse and extract structured data from your codebase \(e\.g\.\, functions\, classes\, and comments\)\.
3\. Connect parsed code with semantic embeddings to make it searchable\.
4\. Complete pipeline recap\.

This talk is tailored for Rust developers interested in combining Machine learning models and programming language parsing into their applications.

20:30 – Get together
21:30 – Doors closing

During the event, we’ll be taking pictures. We plan to use these photos on our social media channels and for promotional purposes. We would like to ask for your consent in advance.
