Last month our speaker talked about Stitch in his presentation. This month, Leonardo will give us more insight about how to use the tool to create a website using WordPress. **“Vibe Coding” (氛圍編碼）：從 UI/UX 到網站開發 by Leonardo Lee** 你是否厭倦了傳統設計到功能程式碼之間緩慢而繁瑣的交接流程？歡迎來到 Vibe Coding 時代——借助生成式 AI 的強大功能，你的設計意圖可以無縫轉化為可運行的生產網站。 本次由 GDG Cloud HK 和 Hong Kong WordPress Meetup 共同舉辦的獨家跨社群交流會，將為你揭示終極現代 Web 開發工作流程。基於本地行業專家的前沿工作流程，你將學習如何彌合創意 UI/UX 設計與全面網站部署之間的鴻溝。 我們將展示如何將 Stitch（輕鬆實現元件和雲端部署）、最先進的 AI 代理程式（例如 Google Gemini）以及 WordPress 的靈活性相結合，從而以閃電般的速度建置、設計並部署網站。無論你是希望將視覺效果轉化為現實的設計師，還是希望大幅提升建構速度的開發者，本次分享都將從根本上改變你對 Web 開發的認知。 Are you tired of the traditional, slow handoff from design to functional code? Welcome to the era of Vibe Coding—where your design intent seamlessly translates into a working production website using the power of Generative AI. In this exclusive cross-community meetup co-hosted by GDG Cloud HK and Hong Kong WordPress Meetup , we are unpacking the ultimate modern web development workflow. Based on cutting-edge workflows from local industry experts, you'll learn how to bridge the gap between creative UI/UX and full-scale web deployment. We will showcase how to mix Stitch (for effortless component and cloud setup), state-of-the-art AI agents (like Google Gemini), and the flexibility of WordPress to build, style, and deploy websites at lightning speed. Whether you are a designer wanting to see your visuals come alive or a developer looking to supercharge your build times, this session will fundamentally change how you view web development. **Registration** Please register in both Meetup.com (here) and [GCG Cloud HK’s website](https://gdg.community.dev/events/details/google-gdg-cloud-hong-kong-presents-vibe-coding-uiux-to-website-development-powered-by-stitch-x-ai-x-wordpress/). **Sponsored By** **Venue Sponsor: Coffice** [Coffice](https://www.coffice.com.hk/) 是以本地企業及傳統行業為主要服務對象的共享辦公室，自2014年起我們分別在觀塘、荔枝角及上水設立了分行。 [Coffice](https://www.coffice.com.hk/) 致力為每個創業家提供全面的創業支援及希望透過用戶交流平台，為初創公司及微企打做一個將工作，生活，社交合而為一的理想工作環境。 [Coffice](https://www.coffice.com.hk/) 不僅希望每個創業家可以在Coffice shared office Hong Kong成功開拓業務，更關心您在Coffice coworking office space工作及生活中都能夠忙裡偷閒。於Coffice的Coffee Bar喝杯咖啡，抖足精神，與co space身邊的伙伴談天說地分享創業經驗，從而互相激發靈感，充電後再搏殺。 **Event Sponsor: Kinsta** Kinsta‘s premium managed hosting for WordPress delivers speed, security, and global scalability, directly improving reliability, efficiency, and results.

Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week. You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring. Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell. **This month** Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads. **What to expect** Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM. **Who this is for** Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community. **Not the right fit if** You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM. **Details** * Second Monday of every month * 12:00 to 1:30 PM * Good Cafe Easton, 4400 Easton Commons, Ste 150, Columbus, OH 43219 * Order lunch and drinks at the counter when you arrive * Free to attend, RSVP required, space is limited **About the host** Rita Suzanne is a local marketing strategist and the founder of Local Marketing Method.

Do you want more motivation and confidence to build Lasting Relationships? This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Are you burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.

Real estate is a proven wealth-builder—it has been for generations. But it’s not a solo sport. You need PEOPLE—who can advise you, partner with you, bring you deals, and buy deals from you. We’re all about bringing you the best, most active, most got-your-back people in Central Ohio, which is why our July meeting is all about real conversations with real investors at our annual Picnic with a Purpose. This is where: * Deals get discussed * Partnerships get formed * Funding relationships start * Problems get solved faster Bring your family. Build your network. Strengthen the relationships that actually move your business forward. Members and first-time guests are free. Returning guests are $35. Location is a local park and will be shared after registration. Space is limited, so you’ll want to secure your spot now.
