React Athens MeetUp #10
👋 Hello guys and gals, 👋
🎉🎉🎉 Summer is coming — get ready for the event. 🎉🎉🎉
Doors open at 18:00, and your **ID is required** for entrance.
18:15 - 18:30 - Gathering and welcome from the organizers.
18:30 - 19:00 - Marios Tsigkas - How We Use AI Agent Workflows with Cursor at TalentLMS
19:00 - 19:30 - Nestor Lopez - Federation of Specialists: From Module Federation to AI Orchestration
19:30 - 20:00 - George Karalis - Exploring MCP Apps: Practical Use Cases for the Enterprise
[Get your CityJS Athens Blind tickets now before the end of Month as our prices will go Save 50% off.](https://athens.cityjsconf.org)
**Nestor Lopez //** **Federation of Specialists: From Module Federation to AI Orchestration**
The industry has already learned how to break frontend monoliths apart without breaking the product experience. A similar shift is now happening in AI. This talk traces the move from federated UI and composable runtime systems to a federation of AI specialists—and shows why production AI works better when agents have clear roles, controlled tools, workflow hooks, shared collaboration context, and policy boundaries.
**George Karalis - Exploring MCP Apps: Practical Use Cases for the Enterprise**
What happens when you give an LLM structured access to your company's actual systems, its APIs, data, internal tools? MCP Apps are a new extension to the Model Context Protocol that lets servers return interactive HTML interfaces, dashboards, forms, data explorers, rendered directly inside the conversation. Instead of bouncing users between chat and separate web apps, the UI lives right where the discussion happens, with bidirectional data flow and sandboxed security. We'll look at how tool handlers expose API endpoints to LLMs, how OAuth fits into the picture, and how the data and context flow into a React app rendered inside the conversation. Whether you're considering MCP for your own product or just curious about what generative UI looks like, this talk will give you a practical intro on building AI-native enterprise tools with React.

Kubernetes Athens vol27
We are pleased to bring you two talks this time. This event will be held in the offices of our sponsor Moro Technology, 28is Oktovriou 5, Omonia square, Stoa Trikoupi.
**1st talk:** "Building with Antigravity" by [Mete Atamel ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/meteatamel/)
**Abstract:** Google Antigravity transforms your regular IDE into an agentic development platform. Beyond basic tab completion, Antigravity offers an intuitive, artifact-based approach to monitoring and providing feedback to agents. By utilizing rules, workflows, and skills, you can fully customize the environment to your team’s best practices, while a dedicated browser subagent handles tasks outside the editor. Last but not least, its Agent Manager can spin up and coordinate multiple parallel agents across various workflows, allowing you to work at a higher level than the code itself.
**Presenter:** Mete is a Software Engineer and a Developer Advocate at Google in London. He builds tools, demos, tutorials, and [gives talks](https://atamel.dev/speaker-profile/) to educate and help developers to be successful on Google Cloud.
**2nd talk:** "Beyond RCA Speed: Understanding Change in Modern Production Systems" by [Spiros Economakis](https://www.linkedin.com/in/spirosoik/)
**Abstract:** In cloud-native environments, deployments, configuration updates, scaling events, and dependency changes continuously reshape system behavior. Incidents rarely arrive without warning, they emerge from subtle interactions and behavioral drift that are difficult to interpret using dashboards, alerts, or post-incident analysis alone. This talk explores why improving root cause speed eventually plateaus, and why many teams are shifting focus toward understanding how change propagates through production systems.
**Presenter:** A systems engineer with over 12 years of experience in diverse tech environments and author of "Argo CD in Practice" book. Founder & CEO of [NOFire AI](https://www.nofire.ai/). A Full Context Embedded SRE platform that operates across the entire lifecycle. Before Change, During Failure, After Resolution.
NestJS Meetup #1 - From Request to Response & Clean CQRS
**🎉 Our very first NestJS Meetup!**
Join us for an after-work technical meetup focused entirely on the **NestJS Framework**.
Connect with fellow engineers over drinks and snacks, and dive into practical, architecture-focused sessions designed to level up your backend development. Whether you're exploring the framework or deploying it at scale, this event is built for you.
**Talk 1: From Request to Response – Observing Fastify in NestJS**
* **Getting Started:** Core concepts, project scaffolding, and leveraging NestJS's modular architecture for scalable applications.
* **The Request Lifecycle:** A deep dive into the execution flow. Understand the exact ordering of Middleware, Guards, Interceptors, Pipes, Exception Filters, and Controllers.
* **Observability with Interceptors:** Implement cross-cutting concerns (logging, metrics, payload transformation, error tracking) cleanly without polluting business logic.
**Talk 2: Clean CQRS with Pipelines**
* **CQRS Implementation:** Build clean and maintainable CQRS architectures using pipeline behaviors for commands, queries, and events.
* **Centralized Logic:** Encapsulate logging, correlation IDs, authorization, and validation in reusable components.
* **The Outcome:** Achieve decoupled event flows, consistent validation, and significantly improved system maintainability.
**Event Details**
* Two technical deep-dives + Q&A + Networking
* Drinks & Snacks provided
* Backend Engineers. All NestJS experience levels welcome!
Come learn, share your architectural insights, and help grow the local NestJS engineering community. We look forward to seeing you!

There’s also a small area to dance if the rhythm hits 🎶💃
No tables. No formal seating. Just an open, dynamic social setup.
🎧 A DJ will be playing Latin music all night — fresh space, fresh crowd, fresh energy 🌶️🔥
We’ll also be collaborating with another group to ensure a diverse, vibrant mix of people and new connections 🌍🧩
🍹 Happy Hour: 8:30 – 10:00 PM
All drinks included. Any drink. Any cocktail — 5€ 💶
Everything is included during happy hour.
🕣 Event time: 8:30 PM – 12:30 AM
🎟 Entry: Free — but strictly limited
⚠️ Important – How to get free entry:
To secure your spot, you must DM me in advance and write “Latinos”.
Only people who DM “Latinos” will be added to the list.
Capacity is limited to 15 people only.
📍 Location:
https://maps.app.goo.gl/ryquYc9KEmwhYhdw9�
I’ll be there personally to welcome everyone 🙌

Session Abstract
### Data Cleansing using Data Bricks
Machine Learning is highly dependent on adequate data. Not only does quantity matter, but more importantly quality. In this session we’ll cover how to build a custom automated process using Data Bricks. This will provide methods for cleaning data in a data lake using functions in Azure.
\*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
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**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.

DoJo (Informal Python Meeting)
**Latest Dojo Location!**
**Knotty Pine Brewing**
1765 W 3rd Ave,
Columbus, OH 43212
We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works
Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead.
We're looking for speakers for our Monthly Meetups! Fill out the form if you are interested in presenting to the Python Community.
