Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈 - Edition 005

Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈 is a new, informal in-person Rust meetup group in Berlin.

We are a interactive meetup format interested in mob coding, deep diving and problem solving together.

We build toy projects, share experiences, discuss technology and learn new cool stuff.

And you are welcome to join!

No matter if you are writing Rust production code every day, if you already contribute to Open Source projects or want to start doing so, if you use Rust in hobby projects or if you are just curious what the hype and buzz is all about, you are very welcome!

To coordinate and plan activities, please join our Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈 Signal group!

Planned programme

Being an informal meetup, we are open to anything between just meet and talk, explore nerd snipes and rabbit holes, mob code together, plan and build fun projects, tinker with electronics, and presentations with Q&A.

This time, Hari is preparing to present his own take on the famous "Learning Rust With Entirely Too Many Linked Lists".

Projected upcoming meetups

We schedule regular meetups on Thursday evening every four weeks, using the slot between the Berlin Rust Hack and Learn online meetup (every two weeks), and the Rust Nuremberg online meetup (every four weeks).

7 August 2025 is our fifth meeting. Our next projected meetings are going to occur on the following dates:

• 4 Sept 2025 (tentative)
• 2 Oct 2025 (tentative)
• 30 Oct 2025
• 27 Nov 2025
• 22 Jan 2026
• 19 Feb 2026

Location

Our new meetup location is the new shared office community space of Ferrous Systems, Slint and KDAB in Berlin Mitte, for up to 25 people.

We are expecting to use this space as our default location for the time being, with the IN-Berlin e.V. community space in Moabit as backup.

Regardless, as our group might eventually outgrow the locations' size limit, we are low-key looking for bigger locations. If you know a fitting location, then please let us know in our Signal group! Another workable way might be to split the meetup into smaller, interest-specific sub-groups instead.

As the no-show rate on Meetup.com is rather high, consider showing up even if you are on the waiting list.

Accessibility

The location has an elevator and a wheelchair accessible bathroom. Please note that the bathroom is two floors down from the meetup space.

Community

We aim to create a safe place for everyone and adhere to the Berlin Code of Conduct.

Inclusivity is very important to us. If you are curious about Rust, but unsure if you are welcome to join: Yes, yes you are. Please come to the meetup! If you have special needs, please get in contact, we will try to accommodate you as best we can.

We are part of https://berline.rs/ and like to hang out in the Berlin Rust Hack and Learn online meetup's Matrix channel. You are very welcome to join!
