**Pomlázky se už pletou, vajíčka se malují… a až se z té velikonoční radosti vzpamatujeme, tak nás čeká první jarní pražský meetup! 🥚🌿🔥** Večer plný talků, nápadů, budoucnosti a podobně naladěných lidí. Jako vždy to rozjedeme Nowwwinkami a pak se ponoříme hlouběji do programu, který opět stojí za to. Přijďte si pro svoji dávku inspirace. Hostit nás budou Mews ve svých pražských kancelářích, kde se můžete těšit nejen na skvělé prostředí, ale i komunitu lidí, kteří žijí frontendem stejně jako vy. 🚀 **Hlavní line-up a na co se těšit dále** 🤩 * 🟢 18:00 otevíráme * 1️⃣ 18:40 **Nowwwinky** od Tomáše Kouta * 2️⃣ 19:00 **Frontend Observability v časech AI: přežitek nebo nutnost?** od Alexe Ratmana * 3️⃣ 19:30 **Proč vám váš CEO bere práci?** od Martina Michálka * 4️⃣ 20:00 **7 klíčových kompetencí vývojáře v době AI** od Marka Velase * 🎓 80+ nadšených účastníků * 🍻 a v neposlední řadě kvalitní catering a networking \-\-\- 1️⃣ Tomáš Kout se svými **Nowwwinkami** otevře večer svým přehledem toho nejzajímavějšího z poslední doby. Rychle, výstižně a se vším, co si zaslouží vaši pozornost. \-\-\- 2️⃣ Následuje přednáška na téma **Frontend Observability v časech AI: přežitek nebo nutnost?** od [Alexe Ratmana](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexratman/) z Mews.com Ve světě, kde AI generuje čím dál víc frontendu, je lákavé myslet si, že observability se postará sama. Ale co když se něco pokazí a vy nevíte kde, proč ani kdo? Na příkladu Mews ukážu cestu od téměř nulové frontend observability až po nasazení Coralogixu a interní vzdělávání týmu. A jako bonus: reálný případ z prostředí velkého evropského telekomunikačního operátora, kde Claude analyzoval produkční problémy na základě dat, která jsme nasbírali - důkaz, že v AI éře jsou dobrá data důležitější než kdy dřív. *O Alexovi: Alex je Senior Frontend Developer ve společnosti Mews, která vyvíjí cloudový hotelový software používaný hotely po celém světě. Za téměř pět let v Mews se intenzivně věnoval frontend observability - od stavu, kdy tým létal naslepo, až po zavádění Coralogixu a budování kultury datově řízeného vývoje. Organizoval interní sérii „Frontend Observability Kindergarten", kde frontendový tým společně prozkoumával možnosti nových nástrojů. Věří, že dobrá observability není o dashboardech - ale o schopnosti pochopit, co se děje s uživatelem právě teď.* \-\-\- 3️⃣ Po přestávce navážeme příspěvkem **Proč vám váš CEO bere práci?** od [Martina Michálka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/martinmichalek/) Velmi dlouho jsem se na svět díval vývojářskou perspektivou. Teď jsem především CEO. Jeden z těch CEO, kteří se zbláznili do vibe-codingu a lezou svým lidem do kódu. To nechcete. Nebo chcete? Vývojářská perspektiva mi umožňuje to vidět i očima frontendistek a frontendistů. Ukážu vám ukázky aplikací, na kterých jsem se podílel, výhry, fuckupy, i vývojářský a produktový pohled. *O Martinovi: Martina snad není nutné představovat*… *😊 tak jen pro zopakování. Martin je známá osobnost české frontendové komunity a dlouhodobě se věnuje hlavně rychlosti webu a webové výkonnosti. Je autorem projektu [Vzhůru dolů](https://www.vzhurudolu.cz) a jeho práce propojuje technickou kvalitu webů s dopadem na UX a byznys. Veřejně vystupuje také v odborných článcích, školeních, konferencí a komunitních aktivitách kolem frontendu obecně. Spolupořádá konferenci [FrontKon](https://www.frontkon.tech/) a je otcem zakladatelem naší komunity [Frontendisti](https://www.frontendisti.cz).* \-\-\- 4️⃣ Večer uzavřeme tématem **7 klíčových kompetencí vývojáře v době AI** od [Marka Velase](https://www.linkedin.com/in/marek-velas/) (Talent mentor a founder edupunk.cz) Psychologický pohled na to, co se skutečně mění — a proč to není o nástrojích. AI dnes negeneruje jen kód. Generuje možnosti. A tím mění práci vývojáře víc, než se zdá. V téhle krátké přednášce se podíváme na 7 kompetencí, které začínají rozhodovat o tom, kdo bude v AI-first prostředí opravdu silný developer — a které se přitom netýkají technologií, ale způsobu přemýšlení. Nejde o nástroje. Jde o změnu role. *O Markovi: Marek působí jako Talent mentor a je hrdým founderem platformy [edupunk.cz](http://edupunk.cz/).* \-\-\- Přijďte si poslechnout, podiskutovat a nastartovat se po Velikonocích správnou Human-AI energií. ✨ Neváhejte s registrací a zabookujte si místo – bude to stát za to! 🎉 👉 Pro další zajímavé novinky a dění sledujte kanály komunity na [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@FrontendistiCz), [X](https://x.com/Frontendisti), [Facebooku](https://www.facebook.com/frontendisti/), [Instagramu](https://www.instagram.com/frontendisti/), [LinkedInu](https://www.linkedin.com/company/frontendisti/posts/?feedView=all) nebo navštivte [náš web](https://www.frontendisti.cz).

**Naked Minds: Reconnect** **Feel it. Don’t just think it.** Launch price: 499 CZK (regular price: 1,499 CZK) You need to register and buy [Tickets here](https://www.tixtree.com/e/naked-minds-the-reconnect-de1c7da985aa) You spend most of your life in your head. Thinking, planning, solving, pushing through. But your body? You often notice it only when something hurts, feels off, or slows you down. **This time, we’re exploring it together — with Lubo Smid.** A practical perspective on how to work with your body not as a performance tool, but as a source of energy, resilience, and clarity. No theory. Just things that actually work in real life. You tell yourself you’ll “take better care of it soon.” Move more. Rest more. Listen more. It’s important. Just not urgent. So it stays on your list. This evening is where you stop postponing it. Not alone at home. But together — in a space where people also want to feel better, have more energy, and understand themselves beyond just thinking. Not as a performance. Not as a biohacking experiment. But as a real experience. We’ll slow down. We’ll feel more. We’ll reconnect. We go honest. We go into detail. We go a little naked. And in the right atmosphere, with the right people, that’s a lot easier. You won’t leave with hacks or pressure. You’ll leave with awareness, clarity, and one concrete shift that actually fits your life. **WHAT THIS EVENT IS ABOUT** This is a structured, guided evening where we combine experience, reflection, and connection. We will: * Explore your current relationship with your body * Notice where you feel energy, tension, and disconnection * Learn how your **nervous system works (parasympathetic vs. sympathetic)** * Experience simple breathing techniques to regulate it * Understand how to **increase HRV (heart rate variability)** * Go through a guided Body Audit * Take part in a **cold plunge experience** * Get a **biological age measurement** and new perspective * Reflect on what your body has been trying to tell you * Turn that into one simple, actionable shift All of it inside a supportive community. No pretending. No performance. Just real conversations, depth, and good energy. **WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH** * A clearer connection to your body * Understanding of how your nervous system affects your energy * Practical tools to regulate stress and increase HRV * Awareness of what gives you energy — and what drains it * One concrete shift to test in your daily life * New contacts and a sense you’re not doing this alone Energy is not about pushing harder. It’s about listening better. **HOW IT FEELS** Honest. Energising. Grounding. There’s depth but it’s not heavy. There’s structure but it’s not rigid. There’s discomfort — and that’s part of it. And yes, there’s laughter. Together, it’s a lot easier. **WHO THIS EVENT IS FOR** This is for you if you: * Feel disconnected from your body * Are often tired but keep pushing anyway * Want more energy without pressure or extremes * Want to understand how your body actually works * Want to slow down — but don’t want to do it alone * Prefer real experience over just talking about it **WHAT THIS IS … AND ISN’T** This is not a fitness class. Not a performance challenge. Not a complex biohacking deep dive. No ego. No “just push harder.” This is a Naked Minds evening where you reconnect with your body, understand it better, and move forward in a way that actually feels sustainable. **PRACTICAL INFO** 🎟 Launch price: 499 CZK (limited) 🧠 No preparation needed 👕 Sport clothes recommended 🧘 Bring yoga mat (for grounding & body work) 💧 Bring water bottle 🩱 Swimsuit & towel (for cold plunge)

We are a group of runners who meet most weeks for a run around the beautiful Vltava River's edge. You can bring your running shoes straight from the office/home office if you don't have time to stop at home. There will be a place to put your bags in the Cafe. We will run about 9 km along the river and have a drink afterwards. Paces vary! We will meet in the square near Kavarna Liberal (Hermanova 6), near the Vltavska metro/tram stop at 6:30 on Wednesday. See you there!

Dance-Movement Therapy is a somatic practice that uses spontaneous movement as a way of self-exploration. This workshop offers a gentle introduction to the principles of dance-movement therapy. It is not a dance class and not a fitness session. There are no steps to learn and no choreography to follow. Participants are guided through simple movement and awareness exercises, sometimes individually and sometimes in interaction with others. The focus is on listening to the body, noticing impulses, and allowing movement to arise naturally. Through this process, participants may experience greater grounding, emotional awareness, and nervous system regulation. The atmosphere is supportive and non-judgmental. The intention is to create a safe and accessible space for exploration, not therapy. No previous movement experience is required. Facilitated by Marie Vejvodova, who completed a 4.5-year certified professional training in dance-movement therapy. She continues to deepen her education in somatic and self-development approaches in the Czech Republic and abroad. In her work, she creates a respectful and non-judgmental space where participants can reconnect with themselves through authentic movement. 250 CZK, REGISTER: https://vev.co/atma-community-space-praha

Modern websites are complex, dynamic, and protected by many anti-scraping systems. At the same time, companies need large amounts of structured data from the web. In this event, we will focus on a real scraping use case and use it to explain how modern scraping works. You will learn what kinds of protections websites use today, what tools can be used depending on website difficulty, and what technical challenges appear in practice. We will also show how machine learning and AI help turn messy web data into structured, usable information. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ⌚️ **Start**: 16:00 and end at 17:00, both online and offline in **Truhlárna Karlín** (Šaldova 388/5) - **Onsite attendance is limited to 100 people.** 🎙️ **Speakers:** Jan Mittner, Michal Marhan 🍻 **Networking** after the seminar – great food and cold beer waiting for you! **🎥 Recording:** After the event we will publish a recording and post a link to it in the comments. 🚪**Doors open** at 15:45, and the event officially starts at 16:00.

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

**Connected Westerville Night of Networking** *April Edition: The Introduction Economy* You've been to the networking events. You've done the small talk. Collected the cards. Forgotten the names. And walked out feeling like you just wasted two hours of your life. The problem isn't you. It's the format. Most networking events put you in a room and tell you to figure it out. So everyone defaults to elevator pitches and business talk, and nothing real gets built. Here's the truth about networking that most people miss: Your network isn't just who you know. It's who thinks of you when they're talking to someone else. *That's* The Introduction Economy. And it only works when relationships are real. There's a reason people who come once keep coming back. It starts with seven minutes that feel nothing like networking. Then we open it up. Free networking. More conversations. More momentum. This is a room full of corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and career builders in the Westerville and Columbus area. The mix is the magic. You might never do business with everyone you meet tonight. But someone in this room will think of *you.* **By name**. So, the next time someone needs exactly what you do, you get the recommendation. **April 14th. RSVP now.** **When:** Tuesday\, April 14th \| 6:15 PM \-\- 8:00 PM **Where:** Vineyard Community Center \| 6000 Cooper Rd\, Westerville\, OH 43081
