ToughTech 2026-01-29

Join us on January 29 at ToughTech for an event that explores Spec-Driven Development - why defining a clear spec up front helps automation and code generation deliver speed without waste - and “Querying Pain with EF”—a candid look at why Entity Framework is so popular, the most common pitfalls, and when alternatives are the better choice.

Agenda:

• 18:30 "Spec-Driven Development: It’s time to rethink the way we build" by Eimantas Tauklys

"Vibe Coding gives us speed, but without a clear target, speed becomes waste.
Slow down at the start: define the spec, align the vision, and then let automation and code generation take you farther, faster, and in the right direction."

• 19:10 "Querying pain with EF" by Skirmantas Navickas

"EF is a tool that is easy to use and easy to love... yet I have my reasons to dislike it. Let's explore why is this tool so widely used, the most common mistakes and cases where some other ORM would be better (spoilers - I am a fanatic of dapper)"

• 20:00 Bytes & Bites
