Talks and Speakers:
Kotlin → C#; Experimenting with Cross-Runtime Interop by Isuru Rajapakse, Senior Android Developer at Motorola Solutions
Kotlin is a warm, cozy blanket of null safety and garbage collection so that we don't gave to get our feet wet. But what happens when you rip that blanket away, compile your Kotlin code down to a C static library, and try to use it in a .NET application? I did it so you don't have to. And I brought the stack traces to prove it.
From Hype to Hands-On: Building Smarter Apps with the Agent Development Kit by Lovee Jain, Google Developer Expert - Cloud | Senior Software Engineer @Prezzee
AI agents are more than hype — they’re a new way to design applications. In this talk, we’ll take a practical look at the Agent Development Kit (ADK) and how developers can use it to orchestrate multi-agent workflows. We’ll explore agent types, chaining strategies, and how to integrate tools and context effectively.
The session includes a demo of a point-based buying agent that showcases how agents can interact, make decisions, and deliver value in a real-world scenario. Expect less buzzword, more code, and practical lessons you can apply in your own projects.
Agentic DevOps: I Gave AI Agents root access to a VM – Here’s What I Learned by Bishal Sapkota, Software Engineer | AI Solutions Architect | Co-founder at Outback Yak
Real Automation, self patching, persistent memory, cron jobs, and the obvious loaded gun.
How to find us:
Doors open at 5:45 PM at our host the Mantel Group, Level 2/452 Flinders St Melbourne. Message via Meetup or Slack if you are arriving after 6:00 as the lifts won't let you up.

In this session, Warwick will walk through:
* The original architecture and design decisions
* How the AWS Step Functions workflows started simple

Early in the walk you’ll pass **Hilda Falls**, a small but charming cascade tucked into the landscape. The trail offers wide country views, gentle gradients, and a calm, open atmosphere. It’s a beautiful, spacious walk perfect for relaxed conversation and soaking up South Gippsland’s scenery.

This walk begins in open farmland on the outskirts of Leongatha, with long views across soft, undulating hills. The trail moves through quiet valleys, past grazing paddocks and old farm buildings, before gradually transitioning into shaded bushland as you approach Korumburra. It’s a gentle, restorative stretch of the rail trail featuring wide skies, easy walking,
* carpool back to Leongatha afterward to collect vehicles.
*You are welcome to take part in the whole camp and walk weekend or any part of it (e.g. turn up for just the day walks).* Whatever fits your schedule and energy is completely fine.
### ** About the Great Southern Rail Trail**
The Great Southern Rail Trail is a gentle, scenic pathway that winds through South Gippsland’s rolling green hills, quiet farmland, and small country towns. With wide‑open views, peaceful valleys, and an easy walking surface, it’s a beautiful trail to explore at a relaxed pace and enjoy the calm, open landscapes of the region.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**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**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.
