Memphis Technology User Groups

Come learn, share, hang out, and eat Pizza with Memphis software developers. This is a free event open to anyone interested in attending

This month, Abdala Jabase will be presenting FigLab.

FigLab is an online course that teaches students how to build and program real electronics, one guided step at a time. Students build small projects with their own hands, and FigLab checks their work as they go, so they always know whether it’s right and what to fix. A built-in AI helper gives hints when they’re stuck without giving away the answer. It’s made for high school and college students, and it’s designed so parents and teachers can support them even without a tech background. At the November talk, we’ll show a short live demo of our first lesson, where we build a small light circuit and bring it to life.

Bio: I am Abdala Jabase, CEO & Co-founder of Fig STEM, Inc. I am about to graduate from Georgia Tech with a M.S ECE. I have always loved engineering and coding, and been involved with projects since middle school.

Come and be part of this meetup where you can discuss and showcase your personal projects, regardless of whether they are completed or still a work in progress. Whether it's a school project, tutorial creation, or anything else, you're welcome to share. The aim is to practice discussing tech topics so that you can confidently demonstrate technical knowledge and excellent communication during interviews. Alternatively, you can simply join to applaud, mentor, and offer support to fellow participants.

Code, Create + Conversate is BDPA Memphis's monthly community gathering where developers, designers, creatives, and makers come together over great coffee to work, share, and connect with our laptops, projects, and ideas. Whether you're debugging code, designing something new, learning a tool you've been curious about, building a side project, or just want to be around other people who love creating, there's a spot for you here.

The vibe is casual and judgment-free. There's no pressure, and no skill level requirement. Some people come with specific projects they're working through. Others come for the conversation and community. Most leave with new ideas, new connections, and a little more motivation than when they walked in.
