April Meetup is here! Let's gooo!

In this talk, Alex will look at how modern frameworks try to bridge that gap, and share lessons from Skyscanner’s setup with protobuf-generated TypeScript types, including versioning, nullability, and validation to make API contracts safer in real frontend code. **19:25** **Building a Workflow Builder From The Ground Up** Speaker: [Martí Serra Molina](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAADubmLMBJy_b_UNaB8Za17gbj1sc69JgkcY/?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base%3BBKaAifpsSFG5%2BC062yD%2Blw%3D%3D) Frontend Engineer \| Creator of Formity Workflow builders are powerful tools for visually designing and automating complex processes, but building one from scratch in React poses unique challenges.

🔧 Join us for **two talks** focusing on **getting more out of PHP** without unnecessary complexity, from async execution to performance insights. Stay for **discussion, drinks, and snacks** afterward. **Details** ⏰ Aptil 9th 🗓 Starting 6:30 pm 🇬🇧 Talks in English 🎟 Free 📍NN Working. Carrer de Pau Claris, 194, L'Eixample, 08037 Barcelona (4th floor) **Talks:** **1\. Topic:** **PHP Fibers: simplifying async code and speeding up development** **Speaker:** [Max Fomichev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maxim-fomichev/), Infrastructure Engineer at Manychat **About the Talk** We constantly search for creative ways to get maximum out of php, without bringing excessive complexity for our developers daily work. In this speech I'll sum up our way, describe where are we now in a bit, and share how we started to use fibers and asynchronous http requests to speed up both our code writing and execution, while avoiding excessive cognitive load for our developers dealing with "asynchronous" programming. **About the Speaker** Max has decades of experience in IT, primarily focused on programming in PHP and running Unix servers. For the past six years, he has been working at Manychat, a leading chat-marketing platform, where I combine the roles of an Infrastructure Engineer, SRE, and developer, optimizing systems and ensuring reliability. **2\. Topic:** PHP Performance Demystified - Measure, Understand, Optimize **Speaker:** [Volker Dusch](https://www.linkedin.com/in/volker-dusch/), Head Of Engineering at Tideways, PHP 8.5 Release Manager **About the Talk** In this talk, we'll explore options for PHP performance analysis. From understanding how the PHP virtual machine and OPCodes work, to performing your own reliable and meaningful benchmarks, and how to use request profiling using open-source and commercial offerings. You will leave with an overview of the available tools and an understanding of how to use them in your day-to-day. Learning how to spot bottlenecks and optimize them away efficiently and confidently. **About the Speaker** With over 20 years of software development experience, Volker has seen PHP grow and mature from PHP 3, working on long-living custom applications in high-traffic environments. From social networks to medical data processing, he has worked as an engineer, team lead, and Head of Engineering, mostly focusing on PHP, Go, C, JavaScript, HTML/CSS and System Operations. https://phpc.social/@edorian **Thanks to Manychat to host the meetup** – [Learn more](http://%5Bhttps/%5B%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D%5D(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D)(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D(medium.com/manychat-engineering%5D))(https:/%5B%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D)(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D(medium.com/manychat-engineering)))) about Manychat Engineering – [Careers](http://%5Bhttps/%5B%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D%5D(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D)(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D(careers.manychat.com/%5D))(https:/%5B%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D)(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D(careers.manychat.com/)))) at Manychat – [Videos](http://%5Bhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d%5D(https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d) "\[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d\](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d)") from the previous meetups

Try new games, meet new people, and find out what story games are all about! Explore the reaches of space! Witness kingdoms rise and fall! Create and explore tragedies! All within a single game night. We play story games like Fiasco, Kingdom, Polaris and Microscope that encourage everyone at the table to participate creatively. We also have one-shots of indie, OSR, and narrative-focused RPGs such as Apocalypse World, Dread, Lady Blackbird, and Old School Essentials! Everybody's welcome! It doesn't matter if you've never tried story games before or never played roleplaying games at all! Just bring your brain and a good attitude and come try it out! *** **IMPORTANT** * When you arrive look for the marked Story Games Columbus Tables. Each table will have a separate game. Seating is on a first-come-first-serve basis. * If all tables are full, look for a Facilitator. We will find a way to get you into a game! * There is a flat $3 cover charge for events at Tabletop. *** **Facilitators!!** Please arrive early so that we can get you set up with a table. Please reach out to me ASAP if you would be willing to help facilitate. You can reach me on the SGC Discord here - https://discord.gg/jUTvWUu

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!

The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group! The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play. Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes. We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area. Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
