Girl Coders Coding Together (event for women and gender minority coders)
This meetup is for women and gender minority programmers in Zurich.
As the title says, we meet to code. You can actually code together with someone or just enjoy the company of people coding next to you. You can for example bring your hobby project, a tutorial you'd like to try out or your next challenge on HackerRank. You don't need to come prepared though, you can also just drop by and can get inspired by / pair with someone else.
We'll be meeting at the ETH main building (https://ethz.ch/en/campus/access/zentrum.html). Since there might not be any food / drink options open there on the weekend, consider bringing your own coffee if you need it as fuel for the coding :).
I'll give a more detailed description where to find us in the comments as soon as I've found a table. While ETH can be tricky to navigate we haven't lost anyone yet!
I'm looking forward to seeing you there!

Hike near Zürich „Sihlwald hiking trail – Sihlwald forest trail loop from Horgen“

Once we reach the ridge, we make a detour to a lookout point from which we can see Lake Zug. We then hike along the well-maintained path along the ridge for some time until we reach Albishorn. Once there, we slowly and steadily descend back towards the starting point.

Moja kobiecość - moja moc. Warsztat na Dzień Kobiet
Kobiecość... Co to właściwie znaczy? I czym jest dla Ciebie?
**Podaruj sobie prezent na Dzień Kobiet i świętuj w gronie wspaniałych Polek, które tak jak Ty chcą być kobietami na własnych zasadach.**
Być kobietą w dzisiejszych czasach to niełatwe zadanie. Mamy być wiecznie młode i szczupłe, a jednocześnie dojrzałe i asertywne. Mamy być zmysłowe, a za chwilę wcielać się w ideał Matki Polki. Uginamy się pod ciężarem oczekiwań i obowiązków. Prześladują nas kompleksy i brak pewności siebie.
Jednocześnie wiele z nas nauczyło się traktować inne kobiety jako konkurencję. Porównujemy się do siebie nawzajem, nie ufamy sobie.
Dzień Kobiet to idealny czas, aby celebrować naszą kobiecość i przypomnieć sobie, co ona dla nas znaczy.
**To nie jest kolejny warsztat o chodzeniu na szpilkach i makijażu (choć te też są wspaniałe, jeśli dają Ci radość!)**
**W kobiecym kręgu przyjrzymy się przekonaniom na temat tego, co to znaczy być kobietą.**
Zobaczysz, jakie myśli o sobie jako kobiecie Ci służą, a jakie sprawiają, że czujesz się źle. Zrozumiesz różnicę między tym, jaka myślisz, że musisz być, a tym, jaka naprawdę chcesz być jako kobieta.
**Przejrzysz się w doświadczeniu kobiet i doświadczysz kobiecej solidarności (a może nawet poznasz swoją przyszłą najlepszą przyjaciółkę!)**
**Sięgniemy też po ruch i proste techniki pracy z ciałem, aby dotknąć czegoś głębszego – naszej delikatności i sensualności, ale też odwagi i siły.**
**Wyjdziesz z warsztatu ze swoim wyjątkowym Manifestem Kobiecości, który będzie drogowskazem w codziennym życiu i relacjach.**
Na zakończenie warsztatu będzie czas na pogaduszki i poznanie nowych, ciekawych Polek.
**Nie musisz mieć żadnego doświadczenia w warsztatach, żeby wziąć w nim udział! Po prostu przyjdź, taka, jaka jesteś, i odkryj swoją kobiecą moc!**
Warsztat otwarty jest dla wszystkich osób identyfikujących się jako kobiety, bez względu na wiek (od lat 18) i tożsamość seksualną.
**Twoja prowadząca:**
Anka Grzywacz jest terapeutką metody Lowena (psychoterapia przez ciało), seksuolożką i doświadczoną trenerką. Przez ponad dwie dekady angażowała się w działania na rzecz praw kobiet i dziewcząt, na arenie polskiej i międzynarodowej. Wielokrotnie gościła w polskich mediach. Przez 3 lata prowadziła autorską audycję „Dobry Seks” w Radio TOK FM, a w Zurychu wystąpiła na prestiżowej konferencji TEDx Zurich. Od ośmiu lat mieszka z rodziną w Szwajcarii.
*Uwaga na temat ceny biletu:*
*Pełna cena to ok. 60/70 CHF w zależności od terminu zakupu (pokazuje się przy kasie). W systemie podaję 58/68, gdyż jest to jedyna opcja, żebym mogła przejąć na siebie koszty obsługi rezerwacji.*

Hacking the Stack: Using OpenSearch Dashboards as an Application Framework
**Agenda:**
* 6-6:30 pm: Networking and food/drinks
* 6:30-7:15 pm: Announcements and presentation
* 7:15 pm-7:30 pm: Q&A and close-out
**Hacking the Stack: Using OpenSearch Dashboards as an Application Framework**
Most developers treat OpenSearch Dashboards (OSD) strictly as a visualization layer—a place for charts and graphs. They are missing the bigger picture. OSD is a powerful, untapped environment for full-stack application development. In this session, we peel back the architecture of **an enterprise-grade risk, compliance, and security platform built entirely *on top of* OSD**. We moved beyond simple plugins and pushed OSD to its limits to create a seamless, interactive application experience.
Join us for a deep dive into the engineering reality of the OpenSearch stack, including:
* **The Analysis:** Why the OpenSearch stack beat out the competition.
* **The Build,** **Beyond Visualization:** How to implement custom React components to build complex workflows and interactive UIs within OSD.
* **The Integrations:** Integrating Wazuh for agent management and ingesting data at scale.
* **The “Gotchas”:** Honest, real-world lessons on data handling, state management, and what to look out for.
**If you are ready to push your plugins from “reporting tools” to “robust software,” do not miss this session!**
