June Edition ✨✨! We will be at the MongoDB London office! Django London Meetup is a monthly meeting to discuss Django, Python, the web, and related topics. The meetups are open to all with an interest in building websites with Django. (in-person only event, no streaming) **Talks:** **AI Agents Need Memory Too: Building Systems That Remember What Matters — Abigail Afi Gbadago** AI agents are only as good as what they can remember, but deciding what to store, where to persist it, and how to retrieve it at the right moment is harder than it sounds. This talk walks through a practical framework for architecting memory systems for agentic applications, covering memory types, storage patterns, retrieval strategies using vector search, and managing the full memory lifecycle in production. Afi is a Senior Software Engineer and Developer Advocate (MongoDB). She serves as Vice President of the Django Software Foundation, a Fellow of the Python Software Foundation, and is a Microsoft MVP for Python and Web. Afi is passionate about building great software and stronger tech communities. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Replay Failed Python Runs: Reverse Debugging When Logs Aren’t Enough** **\- Nathan Matthews** Reproducing Python failures from a traceback alone is often impossible once the request is gone or the environment has changed. This talk introduces Retrace, an open-source reverse debugger that lets you record, replay, and step backwards through a failing run, giving both developers and AI agents concrete evidence for debugging. Nathan Matthews is Co-founder and CTO of Retrace Software. He has spent his career building complex Python and distributed systems across fintech, developer tools, and data platforms, including roles at 10x Future Technologies, Digital Asset, Elsevier, and Droit. At Retrace, Nathan leads the technical work behind deterministic replay and reverse debugging for CPython. **Want to share your Django or Python knowledge?** We’d love to feature your talk!

We are excited to host our coding dojo with Spektrix! We'll kick off with an introduction to TDD, its core principles, and following disciplined emergent design. Through hands-on pairing and mob programming, you'll experience how writing tests first doesn't just catch bugs, it shapes cleaner, more intentional code from the ground up. **What about AI tooling?** We encourage the use of AI tooling! We will briefly walk through how such tooling can act as multiplier, not to shortcut the discipline of TDD. **Don't have AI tooling?** No problem. TDD is a discipline that stands on its own, with or without AI. But if it's something you'd like to try, we can pair you with somebody who has the tools set up. Join us for an evening of coding, food and drinks. Come and code along, share ideas, discuss best practices with Test Driven Development and learn from our expert Crafters and your peers in the London Software Craftsmanship community. **What’s the format?** After a short intro, we’ll get into groups/pairs or work solo, whatever people feel most comfortable with, and start building. You choose how you want to work and what language you want to code in. This session is about collaborating with others, becoming a better developer and building your network, in a fun, relaxed environment. We'll be sharing ideas, discussing best practices and using this as an opportunity to learn from our fellow coders. All levels of experience very welcome, if you want to brush up on your Test Driven Development skills or are a complete novice, do come along. All welcome! All you need to do is bring a laptop if you’d like to code along - please have your preferred language and editor setup. **Food and Drinks** Pizza and drinks will be provided upon arrival

Creativity often begins when we stop trying to solve a problem in the most obvious way. In this first practical creativity workshop, we’ll use random words, playful constraints and group exercises to break rigid patterns of thought, loosen fixed assumptions and generate unexpected ideas. Creativity is not just about having good ideas. Often, it is about changing the conditions in which ideas appear. The session takes inspiration from Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt’s *Oblique Strategies*: a set of creative prompts designed to help artists and other creatives escape blocks, loosen fixed habits and approach problems from unexpected angles. This will be an active, participatory workshop rather than a talk. You’ll work with other people in pairs and small groups, trying out practical exercises and responding to prompts designed to interrupt familiar ways of thinking. The emphasis will be on engagement, experimentation and practical action: having a go, noticing what shifts, and exploring how unusual prompts can open up new possibilities. You do not need to be an artist, designer or creative professional. This workshop is for anyone interested in thinking more flexibly, solving problems differently, or exploring practical creativity in a friendly, hands-on setting.

# Learn how to use open-source harnesses like OpenCode & Pi w/ your own LLM and with it, build a real-world application **Registration to this event is only valid through the Luma platform:** [https://luma.com/11txn8gq](https://luma.com/11txn8gq?utm_source=meetup-dot-com) ​Hello code campers! ​Since everyone is talking about using harnesses such as **Anthropic Claude** or **OpenAI Codex**, meaning, everyone is probably tired of hearing about them, we've decided to go in a different direction and explore other, lesser known things such as, [OpenCode](https://opencode.ai/?utm_source=luma) and [Pi DOT Dev](https://pi.dev/?utm_source=luma). Come and join us and learn how to work with a wide range of open-source large language models (**LLMs**) such as **DeepSeek V4**, **Gemma**, **Kimi K2**, and **GLM** across various local-first environments. This comprehensive workshop is designed to teach you what is a code harness, how many types of them there are out there (you might be familiar with **Claude Code** or **Codex** or **CoPilot** but there are others and since the big-tech companies are moving to token-based usage, why not run your own solution locally). Also, we'll explore how to go about having effective agentic coding workflows while benchmarking model performance and hardware requirements. ​We will go through the setup process, focusing on how to install the desired LLM runner like Ollama or LMstudio locally. ​This will be our **7th** event in our series of **local-first, open-source** AI events; therefore, we will try to focus on building a setup that doesn't depend on Big Tech but on smaller open-source tech instead. ​This workshop is open to all levels, from beginners to experts. ​Bring your laptop (make sure it's fully charged as local LLMs tend to be power-hungry), and don't forget to bring your coding gear (hoodie). ​This workshop will be most likely accompanied by a guest speaker (TBD). *** ## ​Prerequisite ​Prerequisite: a local Ollama, LMStudio installation or equivalent (but if you don't have any of that, don't worry, come a bit early and we will help you). ​If you want to take a quick look at the slides from the previous events fell free to do so: [​https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-01/](%E2%80%8Bhttps://andysign.github.io/ai-london-01/) (Ollama); [​https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-02/](%E2%80%8Bhttps://andysign.github.io/ai-london-02/) (LangFlow, not really related but still) [​https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-03/](%E2%80%8Bhttps://andysign.github.io/ai-london-03/) (private RAG w/ Anything LLM) [​https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-04/](%E2%80%8Bhttps://andysign.github.io/ai-london-04/) (AI-native browsers) [​https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-05/](%E2%80%8Bhttps://andysign.github.io/ai-london-05/) (OpenClaw basics) [​https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-06/](%E2%80%8Bhttps://andysign.github.io/ai-london-06/) (OpenClaw advanced) *** ## ​Agenda for the evening (Subject to change) ​**18:00 - 18:30 Arrival and networking** Mingle with fellow developers over refreshments. ​**18:30 - 18:45 Introductions** Intro and a bit of audience engagement. ​**18:45 - 19:40 Workshop** ​Hands-on technical workshop (if you are non-technical it's OK, tag along). ​**20:30 - 20:45 Guest Speaker** ​**20:30 - 21:00 Networking** ​**21:00 - Closing remarks and follow-up** ​ **END:** Carry on the fun at a nearby pub around the corner. *** ## Event Venue We'd like to extend a heartfelt thank you to **Encode Club**. [Encode Club ](http://encode.club)has spent over five years fostering a global community of developers, researchers, and founders in Web3, AI, and emerging technologies. The [Encode Hub](http://hub.encode.club) brings everything together under one roof, providing a dedicated environment for collaboration and innovation through meetups, co-working, and in-person events.

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###
