WordPress Meetup: WordPress an der Hochschule | WordPress und React
Liebe Zürcher WordPress Community
Wir freuen uns, euch im Juni bei Liip zu treffen. Unser Programm:
**19:00 - 19:30 Erster Vortrag**
**WordPress an der Hochschule – Herausforderungen einer offenen Wissensplattform- Cinzia Gabellini**
Die Hochschule Luzern betreibt eine WordPress‑Plattform mit dem Anspruch, Dozierenden und Studierenden eine offene Wissensplattform bereitzustellen. Sie ermöglicht einen niedrigschwelligen Zugang zu einem eigenen digitalen Raum, um Wissen sichtbar zu machen und zu teilen. Grundlage dafür ist die Multisite‑Funktion von WordPress: Sie erlaubt individuelle Blogs, erlaubt mehrere Autor:innen und unterstützt die digitale Selbstbestimmung der Nutzer:innen. Im Unterschied zu klassischen Lernmanagement‑Systemen, die zentral gesteuert und auf geschlossene Nutzerkreise ausgerichtet sind, setzt unsere WordPress‑Plattform auf Offenheit und Eigenverantwortung. Dieser Ansatz bringt besondere Herausforderungen in der Verwaltung von Nutzenden und Blogs mit sich.
In der Präsentation stelle ich das Konzept der Blog-Plattform vor und zeige, wie wir diesen Herausforderungen in der Praxis begegnen. Du erfährst dabei,
* wie der User Lifecycle zweckvoll umgesetzt werden kann,
* nach welchen Kriterien und wie Blogs weitergeführt oder archiviert werden, und
* wie die Sichtbarkeit von Blogs je nach Nutzungskontext eingestellt werden kann.
Über Cinzia Gabellini
[Cinzia Gabellini](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cinzia-gabellini/) ist Spezialistin für digitale Lehre an der Hochschule Luzern. Mit ihrer Expertise in E-Learning und Erwachsenenbildung unterstützt sie Dozierende bei der Umsetzung nachhaltiger digitaler Lernszenarien sowie bei der Weiterentwicklung ihrer didaktischen Ansätze. Zudem betreut sie die «WordPress-Plattform Lehre» als Teil der Lehr- und Lerninfrastruktur.
**19:30 - 20:00 Zweiter Vortrag:**
**WordPress und React: Die Kombination in der Praxis - und was dabei gelernt wurde**
Die Kombination aus WordPress und React mag technisch, aufwendig und für manche unmöglich klingen. Manchmal ist sie aber die eleganteste Lösung im Raum. Noemi Frischknecht, UX Designerin und Entwicklerin teilt in diesem Vortrag ihre Erfahrung mit genau dieser Kombination.
Anhand echter Projektbeispiele zeigt sie, wann und warum hybride Setups entstanden sind, welche Vor- und Nachteile sie mitbringen, wo Reibung entstehen kann und weshalb die Kombination für sie als UX Designerin & Entwicklerin persönlich besonders wertvoll ist.
Noemi ist nicht nur in der Entwicklung zu Hause und freut sich, diese Thematik für alle zugänglich zu machen. Der Vortrag richtet sich darum wirklich an alle, die in irgendeiner Form mit WordPress-Projekten zu tun haben. Technisches Vorwissen zu React ist nicht nötig - technisches Interesse erhofft sie sich durch den Vortrag zu wecken. Tips wohin mit diesem Interesse sind in der Teilnahme inbegriffen.

Runic Readings
Sessions of **individual runic readings** are available for beginners all along summer, both online (75 CHF) and offline in Zurich (100 CHF).
These sessions are **NOT** esoteric or divinatory. We're approaching runes as **a symbolic system of archetypes** to examine any situation or question that is currently relevant to you.
*If you feel stuck in a situation and cannot see a way forward, are facing a difficult decision, navigating a period of uncertainty, or trying to understand a recurring pattern in your life, a runic reading may offer a different perspective.*
**You will receive:**
• a clearer and systemic understanding of what is actually happening;
• insight into hidden influences affecting the situation;
• a better understanding of why certain difficulties keep repeating;
• greater clarity around available options and their likely consequences;
• practical ideas for what to do next.

**Topic: Architect in the Age of AI**
**In short:** AI code generation presents businesses with a critical challenge: how to benefit from AI code generation, while containing the cost of AI. By default, AI generates very complex code that is not reusable, and it lacks design integrity. The cost of ownership of this code could exceed by multiples the cost of human-generated code. Instead of gains, developers experience strains trying to understand what the AI has generated. Companies now transition from AI euphoria to AI spaghetti. Throttling back token spending does not address the underlying complexity. In this dense session Juval explains what AI is doing wrong, and what businesses are doing wrong trying to leverage AI. Juval will then discuss the crucial role of the architect in unleashing the productivity gains of AI, using the best practices of software engineering. You will see how to future-proof your career, how to avoid being a casualty of AI, and how to be indispensable to your business, saving it from out of-control AI spending and complexity.
Juval Löwy is the founder of IDesign and a master software architect. Over the past 20 years, Juval has led the industry with some of his ideas such as microservices – serving as the foundation of software design and development.
Juval has mentored thousands of architects across the globe, sharing his insights, techniques, and breakthroughs, and has helped hundreds of companies meet their commitments. Juval participated in the Microsoft internal strategic design reviews and is a frequent speaker at major international software development conferences. He is the author of several bestsellers, his latest book being Righting Software.
**Host:** This free lecture is hosted by [Software Leader](https://www.software-leader.com). We help architects to become better technical leaders.
**Live stream and very limited on-site seats available.**
**Please use the registration page to join:** **[REGISTRATION PAGE](https://content.software-leader.com/juval-talk-june-2026)**
Seats are limited. Therefore, kindly let us know in advance if you cannot make it.

Hackergarten June
We're planning the next Hackergarten Zurich 🥳 We're looking forward to see some familiar faces and share knowledge within the open-source community. Spread the word — everyone is welcome! Bring your project, a bug, a feature, a question... or just your time and enthusiasm 💜 As always there will be free drinks, beer and pizza, sponsored by Quatico.
As usual we briefly present the open-source projects we'd like to work on, break up into groups and try to make an actual contribution. We offer free pizza, beverages and depending on weather conditions a great view on Zurich West from the rooftop terrace.
Many thanks to Quatico (https://www.quatico.com) for hosting the event!
Swiss PSUG 06/2026
Dear Microsoft Swiss PSUG,
We have planned another exciting event.
**Place & Language:**
Place: Isolutions AG, The Circle 38, 8058 Zürich (Hybrid with Teams)
Language: EN
**Session 1: PowerShell Notebooks in Practice: Real‑World Use Cases**
Description:
PowerShell Notebooks can significantly enhance how we build and operate tools. This session showcases practical, real‑world scenarios—including onboarding and offboarding workflows, pipeline integration, diagnostic data collection, and development against both on‑prem and cloud services. With plenty of demos, you’ll see how notebooks can improve productivity and clarity across the entire lifecycle.
Speaker: [MVP David Sass](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sassdawe/ "https://www.linkedin.com/in/sassdawe/")
**Session 2: Updating isn’t the hard part — Knowing What changed Is**
Description:
PowerShell modules evolve constantly — features change, bugs are fixed, and behavior shifts. While updating a module is easy, understanding the impact of updates is not. Outdated modules risk lost functionality, while rushed updates can introduce subtle breaking changes.
In this demo-focused session, we explore a practical approach to tracking meaningful module changes without notification overload. Using the PackageUpdateInfo module, we show how to detect and report relevant differences between versions.
Speaker: [David Bellstedt](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreasbellstedt/ "https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreasbellstedt/")
**Agenda:**
17:00 Welcome
17:30 Session 1
18:15 Session 2
19:00 Networking and Beer
20:00 End of Event
RO:SEC - KI-Agenten & Code im Security-Check: Zwischen Hype, Hack und SAIF 2.0
Am 24.06.26 steigt unser nächstes Codineers Rosenheim Meetup vor Ort in unserem Büro in Rosenheim oder Remote via Zoom.
Meeting Link: [https://qaware-de.zoom.us/j/88063201327?pwd=1CYwSe7eGIBM3FJWygby1oixvzXUwg.1](https://qaware-de.zoom.us/j/88063201327?pwd=1CYwSe7eGIBM3FJWygby1oixvzXUwg.1)

**\#\# KI\-Agenten & Code im Security\-Check: Zwischen Hype\, Hack und SAIF 2\.0**
Vom nützlichen Entwickler-Tool bis zum autonomen System: KI-Agenten übernehmen immer mehr Kontrolle. Sie generieren Pull Requests, führen eigenständig Code aus und handeln im Namen der User, oft komplett ohne menschliche Aufsicht.
Doch wo endet der Hype und wo beginnen die echten Risiken? Was taugen die integrierten Sicherheitsfeatures aktueller Modelle, wenn sie auf die Realität der Softwareentwicklung treffen? Und wie groß ist der "Blastradius", wenn Agenten durch präparierte E-Mails manipuliert werden?
Dieses Meetup liefert dir einen fundierten Security-Deep-Dive. Wir analysieren reale Vorfälle, prüfen die aktuellsten Anthropic-Modelle auf Herz und Nieren und stellen dir konkrete Design-Prinzipien (SAIF 2.0) vor, mit denen du deine KI-Systeme absicherst bevor sie live gehen.
**\*\*\* Agenda \*\*\***
17:30 Uhr \| Doors open\. Schnapp' dir Snacks & Getränke\.
17:45 Uhr \| Welcome & Intro
18:00 Uhr \| Zwischen Hype und Realität: Anthropic\-Modelle und "Project Glasswing" im Security\-Check \- Stefan Feuerstein
18:45 Uhr \| SAIF 2\.0 – Sicherheitsstrategien für die Ära autonomer KI\-Agenten \- Alexander Eimer
19:30 Uhr \| GetTogether
**\*\*\* Unsere Vorträge \*\*\***
**Zwischen Hype und Realität: Anthropic-Modelle und "Project Glasswing" im Security-Check**
In diesem Vortrag werfen wir einen kritischen Blick auf die aktuelle Leistungsfähigkeit der neuesten Anthropic-Modelle und schauen unter die Haube von Entwicklertools wie der Claude CLI.
Im Zentrum steht dabei die Perspektive der IT-Security: wie sicher ist AI-Code? Was bringen die mitgelieferten "Sicherheitsfeatures"?
Zudem wollen wir natürlich auch wissen, ob Mythos uns zeitnah unseren Job wegnimmt: Deswegen ziehen wir ein Fazit nach zwei Monaten Project Glasswing. Was ist Fakt, was Fiktion?
**SAIF 2.0 – Sicherheitsstrategien für die Ära autonomer KI-Agenten**
KI-Agenten sind längst im Produktiveinsatz: Sie generieren Millionen von Pull Requests, lösen Support-Tickets und verwalten die interne Unternehmenskommunikation.
Sie sind keine bloßen Chatbots. Sie verfügen über Zugriffsrechte, führen eigenständig Code aus und handeln im Namen der User – komplett ohne menschliche Aufsicht.
Doch diese Autonomie vergrößert den potenziellen Blastradius enorm.
Die Beispiele aus der Praxis sprechen für sich: Eine einzige präparierte E-Mail verwandelte Microsoft 365 Copilot in ein Werkzeug zum Datendiebstahl. Ein simpler einzeiliger Prompt brachte den Chatbot eines Autohauses dazu, einem 1-Dollar-Verkauf zuzustimmen – vor den Augen von Millionen. Das sind keine kuriosen Einzelfälle, sondern das Resultat von Produkten, die ohne das nötige Sicherheitsfundament entwickelt wurden.
Googles Secure AI Framework 2.0 (SAIF) ist die Antwort aus der Praxis. Es identifiziert 15 spezifische Risiken, ordnet sie den Komponenten eines KI-Systems zu und liefert konkrete Sicherheitsmaßnahmen. SAIF 2.0 erweitert diesen Rahmen gezielt für agentische Systeme: Es zeigt auf, wo sie versagen, warum die Risiken hier höher liegen und wie wir die Architektur grundlegend neu denken müssen.
Dieser Vortrag analysiert die SAIF-Architektur anhand realer Vorfälle und schließt mit fünf entscheidenden Design-Prinzipien ab, die den Blastradius Ihrer Agenten minimieren, bevor sie live gehen.
Wir sind Partner der [ROSIK](https://www.rosik.com/).
