Dear Kubernauts,

Please join us for another great meetup at the Incident.io Offices. We will have two (or three) fantastic talks: Paul Jolly will talk to us about how CUE can help us to manage our Kubernetes configurations, followed by Michael Bridgen, who will give us an introduction to [Timoni](https://github.com/stefanprodan/timoni), a tool created by [Stefan](https://twitter.com/stefanprodan) that aims to simplify the creation and management of Kubernetes resources. Last but not least, Giles Heron will speak about "How to see the goal before you hear about it".

Agenda:

Arrive at 6 pm
6:20 pm: Start
6:35 pm: [Paul Jolly](https://twitter.com/_myitcv), CUE: configuration reimagined
6:55 pm: Michael Bridgen, Introduction to Timoni
7:15 Break 🍕
7:40 pm: Giles Heron, How to see the goal before you hear about it
8 pm: 🍻

**CUE: configuration reimagined**

We have all cursed at YAML whitespace errors. We have all struggled with configuration-related merge conflicts. We have all questioned why a particular configuration setting is as it is and wondered what the impact would be if we changed it. We have all struggled with code drifting from its configuration. Almost all of us will have had to deal with a production outage because of a bad configuration change.

Configuration touches almost every aspect of our daily lives. Configuration is hard to get right. But does it need to be hard?
[CUE](https://cuelang.org) reimagines the way we approach configuration. The CUE language, tooling and APIs make it the perfect glue to interact with existing systems, allowing for better (and earlier) validation, policy, access control, and ultimately safer, more reliable systems.

In this talk, Paul Jolly will start with a quick overview of the CUE project, then move on to present practical examples of CUE in action. Before finishing up with a glimpse of what CUE will look like in the (near) future.

**Introduction to Timoni**

In this talk, Michael will explain the motivation and inspiration for Timoni, a CUE-based package manager for Kubernetes, then dive into examples and how it fits with other Kubernetes deployment tooling like Flux.

**How to see the goal before you hear about it**

Media Streaming Mesh is an open-source project that enables real-time media applications to be fully integrated into Kubernetes environments. In this talk Giles will give an overview of Media Streaming Mesh and show a live demo.
