Dear fellow Gaeilgeoiri, Cead mile failte / a warm welcome to this group of Irish language lovers and enthusiasts. Hope you will enjoy everything it has to offer and feel free to suggest new events, and, why not step in as an event organizer? What this group is not: - A group limited to those with perfect proficiency in the language, where any single word of English is banned, and where you will get corrected for every séimhiú that, God forbid, you might be forgetting What this group is: - A forum of Gaeilge enthusiasts willing to share their interest and love of the language. We all started learning a language, including our own, from scratch at some point in our lives. Absolute beginners are welcome and should not feel intimidated. Near perfect and native Irish speakers are also welcome to share their vast knowledge of the language. Hopefully this will create a thriving community of lovers of the language at any level. Beir bua Alex (organizer)

Give(a)Go is hosting a beginner-friendly agent builder day in Dublin on **May 2nd**, as part of a global week of building around AI agents. **NOTE: To confirm your spot register on [www.giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent](https://giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent)** Agents are the new apps. They don't just respond, they reason, plan, and act. They browse the web, call APIs, write code, send messages, and loop until the job is done. And right now, the tooling to build them has caught up with the ambition. This is a beginner-friendly event. ​This is a day to go from zero to a working agent. Something that actually does something. Not a demo, not a prototype sitting in a notebook -- a deployed, live, usable thing with a URL you can share. ## ​Build tracks ​You can choose one of the tracks below, or mix tools if your idea needs it. ## ​Track 1: Vibe coding agents with Vercel ​Use Vercel’s tools to go quickly from idea to deployed agent. ​This track is for people who want to build fast, prototype with natural language, create interfaces, connect tools, and ship something live by the end of the day. ​**v0 + MCPs** Go from prompt to interface, then connect your app to real tools and data. ​**Workflow Development Kit** Build durable agent workflows that can run async tasks, recover from failures, and continue across deploys. ​**ChatSDK Agents** Create agents that live inside chat-based workflows like Slack, Discord, GitHub, or your own product. **NOTE: To confirm your spot register on [www.giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent](https://giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent)** # ​Track 2: Production-ready agents with Lua ​Use Lua to build agents that connect to real tools, APIs, and business workflows. ​This track is for builders who want to write actual agent logic in TypeScript, define custom tools, connect external services, test locally, and deploy without managing infrastructure. ​Lua is especially useful for agents that need to work across real channels like web, mobile, Slack, email, WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook Messenger, while handling hosting, scaling, orchestration, context, retries, and monitoring behind the scenes. ​Good for builders who want to create agents that feel closer to real products: customer support agents, lead qualification agents, internal operations agents, e-commerce assistants, research agents, workflow automations, and API-connected assistants. **What to Expect on the Day** * ​A full day of focused building with other motivated builders * ​Short kickoff to set direction and expectations * ​Focused on hands-on learning, learning by doing * ​Build solo or collaborate with someone new * ​End-of-day demos where people shares what they shipped *** ## ​Schedule ​🕙 **11:00 AM** — Doors open 💡 **11:15 AM** — Welcome + kickoff 🎨 **12:00 PM** — Inspiration & scoping 🍕 **1:00 PM** — Lunch 🖥️ **4 :30 PM** — Live demos & shipped agents showcase **NOTE: To confirm your spot register on [www.giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent](https://giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent)** ## ​Global prizes ​Builders who submit through the global build week will also be eligible for the global competition, with **$6,000+ in prizes**. ​Top submissions can win up to **$3,000 in credits plus Vercel Pro**. There will also be a **Community Favourite** award voted on by builders globally on May 3 and 4. # ​**Sponsors** ## ​[V0](https://v0.app/?utm_source=luma) by Vercel ​v0 is the leading AI-powered interface builder for modern web teams — empowering marketers, product folks, designers, developers, and AI-curious builders come together to ship real apps using v0. ## ​[Lua AI](https://heylua.ai/?utm_source=luma) \- The Agent OS ​Build, deploy, and scale enterprise-grade AI agents.

We’re right behind. This meetup is free to attend. Just grab and pay for your own drink when you order to support the bar and keep things cool with the venue.

**Hands in the Soil: Community Growing, Learning & Craic** This first gathering will be a relaxed mix of **hands-on garden work, shared learning, and good conversation**. It’s about getting together in a real space, doing something practical, and seeing what ideas and connections might grow from there. On the day, we’ll: * Get our **hands dirty** with some light garden work and soil prep * Do some **seed sowing** and talk about what grows well locally * **Make kombucha together** and chat about fermentation, food, and simple home practices * Share knowledge, questions, and experiences around growing food * Enjoy some **fellowship, chats, and a bit of craic** along the way.Alongside the practical side, we’ll also have an open, informal discussion about a bigger idea: * The possibility of **small community “park farms” or gardens** in underused green spaces around Dublin * What that might look like, what’s realistic, and whether others feel drawn to exploring it further There’s no pressure, no expertise required, and no expectation beyond showing up with curiosity and a willingness to pitch in. Whether you’re experienced with gardening or completely new, you’re very welcome. Bring clothes you don’t mind getting muddy, and if you have them, gloves. Everything else will be very low-key. This is just a **first step** — a chance to meet, work, talk, and see if there’s a shared appetite to keep growing something together.

📚Reading books and discussing them are two distinct experiences! Conversations about books and sharing insights help us better appreciate literature and enrich our lives. Let's grab a drink (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and discuss books we're currently reading or have recently enjoyed—whether poetry, fiction, or non-fiction. Bring your physical book or e-reader. There's no formal structure or agenda—just books and good conversation.💬 It's a perfect place to get book recommendations and rediscover your reading momentum if you've hit a slump. We welcome readers of all backgrounds and interests! ⚠️**Something Happened?** If something unpleasant happened to you, it may happen to others. Even if it seems minor, don't hesitate to reach out to me. 🔍 **How to find us?** * When I reach the venue, I'll leave a comment in the meetup where the group is seated. Normally, the booking is in my name, so you can ask the staff for the group. * If you're unable to find us, leave a comment in the meetup page. I'll be able to guide you. We highly encourage you to move between tables and strike up conversations with fellow book lovers. These discussions about literature and reading recommendations are often the highlight of the event! As an organizer, I'm always looking for feedback about the event and suggestions for new events, so feel free to suggest ideas to me. 💡 I look forward to seeing you all! 😊

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.
