Ready to build your very first application with AI-assisted development? Join us for **“Build Your First Application with Kiro”**, a hands-on workshop designed to introduce students and aspiring developers to modern software development using Kiro. During this practical session, participants will learn how to use Kiro to generate, structure, and improve a real application while discovering how AI-powered tools are transforming the way developers build software. From setting up a project to generating components and implementing features, attendees will experience a complete beginner-friendly development workflow guided step by step. This workshop focuses on learning by doing: participants will actively build a functional application, explore the generated code, test their work locally, and gain a better understanding of how AI can accelerate productivity while still requiring solid developer understanding and creativity. By the end of the workshop, participants will: * Build and run their first application with Kiro * Understand the fundamentals of AI-assisted development * Learn how to work effectively with generated code * Gain practical experience with modern development workflows Whether you are completely new to application development or simply curious about the future of AI-powered software engineering, this workshop is a great opportunity to start building with confidence. ***Bring your laptop and come build with us!***

This meetup is a beginner-friendly session introducing version control for Unity projects, with a look at three common tools: Git, Perforce, and Unity Version Control. The goal is to help you understand what version control is, why it matters for Unity development, and what options are out there. The format will likely be presentation-style, with live demos and time for questions throughout. You'll see each tool in action and learn how they fit into a Unity workflow. What to Expect: * An introduction to version control and why it's essential for Unity projects * An overview of Git, Perforce, and Unity Version Control * Demos of each tool in a Unity workflow * Tips for getting started * No prior version control experience required * Resources for continued learning All experience levels are welcome. Whether you're new to version control or already using one of these tools, this session will help you understand what each one offers. Food and drinks provided. Join us to learn more about version control options for Unity.
