GoWroc #55

Hello Gophers!

As summer comes to an end, the leaves fall and the kids go back to school, GoWroc is back with a chance to meet fellow Gophers and listen to interesting talks. We will be meeting again in the lovely Wędrówki Pub.

And one more thing, there will be free beers 🍺 and pizza 🍕!

📅 Agenda

🕕 17:45 Networking
Let's grab a beer and catch up 🍻

🕕 18:00 Talks

➡️ Mateusz Dymiński: Let’s build a container engine in go
Everyone has heard of Docker, Containerd or Podman but how it works? What exactly is a container? Is it really "a lightweight VM"? In this talk we’ll try to understand the internals of containers and build our own container engine! During the presentation and in less than 100 lines.

🕖 19:00 🍕🍺 it's pizza time! And another chance to chat with your fellow gopher!

➡️ Wojtek Barczyński: GraphQL Middleware at Spacelift
In this talk, I want to share how we use middleware in our GraphQL API. A well-written middleware helps maintain a fast pace of development, even as both the application and the engineering team grow significantly. I hope my talk will help you in designing your own.

🕢 20:00 Networking
