AI Hackathon - Exploring AI Tools in Umbraco

Join us for a hands-on AI hackathon focused on Umbraco!

We're bringing together the Umbraco Manchester community for an exciting evening of experimentation, collaboration, and discovery as we explore the various AI tools and integrations available in the Umbraco ecosystem.
Whether you're curious about AI-powered content generation, the Umbraco MCP Server, AI-assisted development workflows, or other AI innovations in Umbraco - this is your chance to experiment, learn, and build alongside fellow community members in a relaxed, supportive environment.

What to Expect
This isn't a formal training session or a competition - it's a fun, social way to try out AI tools with fellow developers. Experiment with new approaches, share discoveries, tackle challenges together, and see what's possible when you combine Umbraco with AI. Whether you want to build something practical, test out a wild idea, or just explore what these tools can do - we'll be there to support and collaborate with you.

What You'll Need

• Laptop
• .NET 10 installed
• Your favourite IDE
• An LLM of your choice (ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, or whatever you prefer!)

Who Should Attend
Developers of all experience levels who are curious about AI in Umbraco. Whether you're an AI expert or have never tried these tools before, you'll find plenty to explore and learn. The best insights often come from trying things together and sharing what works (and what doesn't!).

Agenda:
