DevBP #12: Working in Public
Shapr3D Office, Akadémia u. 6, 1054, Budapest, HUWe'll kick off the 2026 season of DevBP meetup with a 360° view of the open-source software development landscape. We’ll explore it all: from the contributor's first steps and the maintainer's gatekeeping, to the point where diverging roadmaps force companies to build their own solutions.
This English-language event will be held at the Shapr3D office, where we'll provide snacks and drinks to fuel conversations.
Arrival is from 17:30, the presentations start at 18:00.

Working with open source software
with Levente Koncz- Shapr3D
Using open source can accelerate time-to-market, but what happens when your roadmap diverges from the maintainer's vision? I'll discuss Shapr3D's experience with Google Filament, covering the benefits of early adoption, the pain of maintaining a permanent fork, and our future plans of building an in-house PBR renderer.
Contributors, Maintainers, and Everything in Between
with Timur Kristóf and Márk Sági-Kazár
It’s often hard to separate the contributor from the maintainer, so we’ll tackle both perspectives in this joint session. Through real-life case studies and a situational roleplay, we will expose the common frustrations and joys of the open-source ecosystem. We’ll also dive into the underrated power of non-code contributions and share personal stories on how this world can shape your career.
