Code Smarter: GitHub Copilot and Agents in Action

We're kicking off the very first GitTogether in Dublin, a community meetup for developers who build, share, and learn with GitHub and open source. Whether you're `git clone`-ing your first project or pushing production-ready code daily, this event is for you.

GitTogethers are local, GitHub-powered events designed to:

• Explore modern developer tools (especially AI-powered ones)
• Share practical tips and project learnings through tech talks
• Run hands-on sessions with GitHub workflows
• Connect with others who love building things with code

This edition of GitTogether will focus on GitHub Copilot and Copilot Agents, covering everything from how to get started to how teams are integrating them into the software development lifecycle.

-----------

What to Expect?

• `git fetch` Knowledge: Lightning talks and live demos on using GitHub Copilot and Agents
• `git rebase` Your Skills: Two hands-on sessions / walk throughs: GitHub Copilot and Copilot Agents in the SDLC
• `git show` Community Projects: Our Community Spotlight segment will feature short, informal demos by local developers working on open-source or experimental projects.
• `git commit` to Community: Time to meet others from Dublin's developer community. Whether you're looking for collaborators, contributors, or conversations, you’ll find your tribe here.
