👉 🎟️ Get Your Ticket: [https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu](https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu) **Overview** From Idea to Product Series #1: A 2-Hour practical workshop to validate your product idea before building your app or SaaS + Networking ### Event Description Every day new apps, SaaS tools and AI products are being built. Technology has made building products easier than ever. But one challenge remains the same: **Many products are built without solving a real problem.** Founders and builders often start with a solution, a feature, or a technology — and only later discover that the problem isn’t as real or important as they thought. This workshop will help you step back and answer one critical question: **Are you actually solving the right problem?** In this interactive session, you’ll learn a simple framework to evaluate your product idea and ensure it is grounded in a real user need. ### What You’ll Learn This workshop is part of the Product Building Series. Together, the three workshops provide a complete path from idea → product scope → product structure, helping you move from concept to a clear and scalable product. In this workshop we will explore: • Why many product ideas fail before reaching the market • The difference between a **solution idea** and a **real problem** • How to identify the right user and the right situation • A simple framework to validate whether your idea solves something meaningful. You’ll see real examples of how small changes in problem definition can completely change a product. ### What You’ll Leave With Participants will complete a **Problem Definition Canvas** for their own product idea. By the end of the workshop you will have: ✔ A clearer definition of the problem your product solves ✔ A better understanding of who your users actually are ✔ A structured Problem Definition Canvas you can use to refine your idea ✔ A practical framework you can apply to future product ideas. ### Who This Workshop Is For This workshop is ideal for: • founders and startup builders • people working on a new app or SaaS idea • indie hackers and makers • early product teams exploring a new product or feature. No technical background is required. ### Workshop Agenda (120 minutes) **1\. Welcome & Introduction** Why validating the problem is the most important step before building. **2\. Why Many Product Ideas Fail** Common mistakes when starting a digital product. **3\. The Problem Validation Framework** A simple structure to identify real user problems. **4\. Real Product Example** How defining the problem changes the product. **5\. Practical Exercise** Use the Problem Definition Canvas to analyse your own idea. **6\. Discussion & Insights** Common discoveries and lessons from the exercise. **7\. Wrap\-Up & Next Steps** ### What to Bring Bring a product idea, feature idea, or startup concept you are exploring. You will apply the framework directly to your own idea during the workshop. ### Format - Interactive workshop - Small group discussion - Practical exercise After the workshop, participants are invited to continue the conversation during an informal **networking session at Sisi Bar on the top floor, where we can share experiences, discuss product ideas, and enjoy the beautiful views over Barcelona together.** 👉 🎟️ Get Your Ticket: [https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu](https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu)

En este próximo encuentro nos sumergiremos en uno de los debates más encendidos que vive nuestra comunidad. La Propuesta de Mejora de Bitcoin 110 ha puesto sobre la mesa una pregunta fundamental: ¿Quién decide qué es un uso legítimo de la red? Esta propuesta busca imponer restricciones técnicas para limitar la inclusión de datos ajenos a los pagos (como imágenes o inscripciones) en la cadena de bloques, bajo el argumento de eliminar lo que algunos consideran "información de relleno" o basura. La polémica: * A favor: Los defensores sostienen que es vital para que los nodos sigan siendo económicos de mantener y para que Bitcoin se mantenga como un sistema puramente monetario. * En contra: Los críticos advierten de riesgos graves, como una escisión o división de la red que ponga en peligro los fondos. Además, denuncian que filtrar transacciones atenta contra la neutralidad y la resistencia a la censura, pilares básicos de este sistema. Para hablar del tema contaremos con @oomahq, administrador de BBO y un profundo conocedor del funcionamiento interno de Bitcoin, quien compartirá su visión técnica y su postura personal ante este posible cambio de reglas. Podéis seguirle en la red social X: [https://x.com/oomahq](https://x.com/oomahq) 🚨 Queremos dejar claro que en este meetup no tratamos temas relacionados con la especulación o la valoración de Bitcoin en el mercado. No hablaremos sobre valoraciones económicas futuras de esta u otras monedas digitales. La asistencia a este acto es libre y gratuita.

No slides. No speaker. No agenda. Just developers talking shop over a cold one. This is an informal gathering for engineers, founders, and builders who are deep in the agentic coding trenches — using tools like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, OpenCode, or rolling their own agent pipelines. Come swap what's actually working, what blew up in production, and what you're excited about right now. We'll be at a bar in Gràcia, Barcelona, and the format is simple: show up, grab a drink, and share what you know. Bring a laptop if you want to show something, but it's not required. **What we talk about (but not limited to):** * Agentic coding workflows and tooling * Prompt engineering & context engineering in practice * Multi-agent architectures and orchestration * AI-native product building * What's broken in the ecosystem and how you're working around it **Who should come:** Developers, technical founders, and AI engineers who build with (or on top of) LLMs. All levels welcome — senior devs with war stories and curious beginners both make the conversation better. **Format:** Open conversation, round-table style. Everyone teaches, everyone learns.

Whether you’re a developer, tech leader, or AI enthusiast, this session is a great opportunity to learn, ask questions, and explore how agentic AI is redefining coding

**PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT NOTES:** 1. The dates listed for this series are about 95% reliable. We are completing our 2026 schedule as we speak, so minor adjustments are still occurring. 2. Each class in this series has an attendance fee, though this first offering is free on a first-come, first-served basis. 3. Each class, from BOTH a sign-up and fee perspective, is a separate entity. **Introduction:** HTML5 is the foundational technology for modern web development, serving as the standard markup language for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. Developed through a collaboration between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG), HTML5 provides a robust system of elements (tags) that tell a browser how to display text, images, and multimedia in a clear and meaningful way. It works in concert with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for presentation and JavaScript for interactivity, forming the core technology stack for virtually all websites and many web applications today. One of the significant advancements of HTML5 is the introduction of powerful new features and elements designed to improve functionality and simplify development. Key additions include native multimedia support via the \ and \ tags, allowing developers to embed media without third-party plugins. It also offers new form controls for better user input, such as date and email types, and introduces web storage capabilities to store data offline for enhanced performance. These features streamline the process of building rich, interactive web experiences. A significant focus of HTML5 is enhanced semantics and better structural organization of content. New semantic elements like , , , , and \ provide meaningful structure to documents, which aids in search engine optimization (SEO) and improves accessibility for assistive technologies. These elements define different parts of a webpage (e.g., a header for the top, a nav for navigation links, a footer for the bottom), making the code more readable and understandable for both developers and machines. This emphasis on clear structure helps in creating more logical and maintainable websites. Developing websites in today's competitive environment requires taking advantage of every technique you can to get the maximum exposure possible. Our HTML5 class will not only show you what's new in the HTML specification, but also the best way to develop optimized web pages that get the attention your client and/or company requires. **The breakdown of the four-class series is as follows:** **Class 1: Introduction to Web Structure and Basic HTML5** This class introduces the core concepts of web development, the history of HTML, and the fundamental structure of an HTML5 document. * **Topics**: * **Web Architecture Overview**: How browsers, servers, and web pages interact. * **HTML Fundamentals**: Understanding elements, tags, and attributes. * **Basic Document Structure**: Using !DOCTYPE html, html, head, and body. * **Text Formatting**: Headings (h1 to h6), paragraphs (p), and text-level semantics (e.g., strong, em, br). * **Lists and Links**: Creating ordered (ol) and unordered (ul) lists, and linking between pages using anchor tags (a). * **Activity**: Students create a basic personal webpage containing text, a list of hobbies, and a link to an external website. **Class 2: Semantic HTML5 and Multimedia Integration** Class 2 focuses on modern HTML5 elements that provide meaning (semantics) to content, improving accessibility and search engine optimization. It also covers adding images and multimedia. * **Topics**: * **Semantic Elements**: Understanding and implementing elements like header, footer, nav, section, and article. * **Images**: Adding images using the img tag and attributes like src, alt, width, and height. * **Multimedia**: Embedding audio and video content using the audio and video tags. * **File and Folder Structure**: Best practices for organizing project files and managing file paths. * **Activity**: Students refactor their Class 1 project to use a proper semantic layout and add an image and a link to a video file. **Class 3: Forms and User Input** This session is dedicated to building interactive HTML5 forms, which are essential for capturing user data and input. * **Topics**: * **Form Basics**: Using the form element, action and method attributes. * **Input Types**: Exploring various input types (e.g., text, password, checkbox, radio, date, submit). * **Form Elements**: Utilizing label, textarea, select, option, and button. * **Client-side Validation**: Implementing HTML5 validation attributes like required, minlength, and pattern. * **Activity**: Students build a complete contact form with different input fields, radio buttons, and basic HTML5 validation. **Class 4: Introduction to CSS3 and Basic Styling** The final class introduces Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to style the HTML content and make the web pages visually appealing and accessible. * **Topics**: * **CSS Fundamentals**: The role of CSS, selectors, properties, and values. * **Integrating CSS**: Using inline, internal, and external style sheets. * **The Box Model**: Understanding margin, padding, border, and content for basic layout. * **Basic Styling**: Changing colors, fonts, and text alignment. * **Accessibility Basics**: Identifying principles of web design usability and accessibility, including ARIA labels. * **Activity**: Students apply an external CSS file to their Class 3 form project to style the layout, colors, and fonts, culminating in a well-structured and styled webpage.
