Hello Gophers! Our **Ultimate Software Design and Engineering** workshop will be held on **20 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. Ardan Labs' popular Ultimate Software Design class is back for probably the final year! We've specially requested for William Kennedy to continue teaching this class, because we believe that strong fundamentals would be even more necessary than ever in the age of AI. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg/). Workshop description follows: This class teaches you how to engineer production-level software in Go leveraging the power of a domain-driven, data-oriented architecture that can run in Kubernetes. From the beginning, you will pair-program and read code with the instructor as he walks through the design philosophies and guidelines for engineering software in Go. With each new feature that is discussed, you will learn how to think about, read, maintain, manage, and debug code. The core of this class is to teach you how to handle and reduce the spread of complexity in the systems you are building. If one of your biggest challenges is maintaining consistent coding standards across your codebase, maybe because team members have different levels of Go experience and are coming from different programming backgrounds, this course is for you. You will learn a set of idiomatic coding standards that everyone can adopt and apply to your existing projects. #### What a student is expected to learn: ##### Deploy First Mentality: We begin to focus on service design with a focus on the ability to maintain, manage, and debug the service in Kubernetes. * Design Philosophy, Guidelines, What to Expect * Project Layers, Policies, and Guidelines * Prepare Project ##### Domain-Driven, Data-Oriented Architecture: We talk about the data-driven, data-oriented architecture. We discuss the design philosophy, guidelines, and semantics of how the three layers of App, Business, and Storage work together. * Architecture Review * Applying and Implementing Firewalls * Data Flow Trust vs Non-Trust * Data Shaping and Data Validation * Developer Isolation with Domains * Extending Functionality through Composition

**Special topic for this week: TODO!** Have you ever wondered what happens after you write your program in any programming language and hit "Run"? Welcome to the new group dedicated to Compiler Engineering so we can discuss language design, static analysis, VMs, and code generation. Topics related to hardware architecture and FPGA are also welcomed! **Join us weekly and learn about:** * The vision for this group. * A crash course on how to start learning compiler dev (including top book recommendations). * An open networking session for showcasing projects and finding collaborators. * Weekly topic to learn about particular aspect of programming languages or hardware **Who is this for?** * Anyone building DSLs or new languages. * Anyone curious about low-level systems and programming * Anyone hiring for compiler/toolchain roles (come pitch your jobs!). * Anyone who wants to learn more about programming languages nature! This isn't a lecture—it's a conversation. Come share your projects and get motivated! This group is not super serious, so if you want to just yap about how bad is the new C++ standard you can find some listeners here. See you!

👋 Hello AWS User Group Community! Join us on Wednesday, 20th May 2026, for our May meetup at the AWS Singapore Office, IOI Central Boulevard! We’re bringing the community together again for an evening of sharing, learning, and connecting — stay tuned as we finalise the session lineup 👀 📅 Date: Wednesday, 20th May 2026 🕡 Time: 6:30 PM 📍 Location: AWS Singapore; 2 Central Blvd, IOI Central Boulevard East Towers, Level 5 🎤 **Meetup Track** ✅ **Lessons Learned Deploying an LLM-Powered Knowledge Assistant** 📌 Speaker: Hairizuan Noorazman, DevOps Engineer Engineering teams often lose time navigating fragmented Jira and Confluence documentation. To address this, an LLM-powered chatbot was built on AWS — using ECR, EKS, and Amazon Bedrock. The initial RAG approach quickly surfaced critical issues such as data leakage in vector stores, prompt injection, and broken access controls. This session breaks down these failure modes and explores a pivot to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration with Atlassian, allowing queries over live data instead of duplicating it. Attendees will gain practical insights into RAG vs MCP trade-offs and a reference AWS architecture for building safer LLM systems. ✅ **Kiro IDE Best Practices in SDLC and Scrum Sprint DevSecOps** 📌 Speaker: Tim Wu, Senior GTM Specialist SA AI/ML An AI-powered development environment that embeds enterprise standards directly into your workflow. See how Kiro transforms traditional SDLC approaches through its Five-Element Architecture, making compliance, security, and best practices automatic rather than afterthoughts. Kiro provides ready-to-use configurations that enforce guardrails while accelerating development. This session focuses on live demonstrations to show you exactly how steering files, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP integrations work together in real enterprise scenarios. ✅ **Running AI agents that control computers: AWS architecture for sandboxed autonomous execution** 📌 Speaker: Sahil Sharma, Applied AI Enthusiast Agents that browse, click, and type need more than an API call- they need isolated sandboxes, warm container pools, and an architecture that scales. This deep dive covers how 14 AWS services come together to run autonomous computer-use agents safely and fast in production. 📢 **IMPORTANT! Registration Information** To ensure a smooth check-in process, please take note of the following: ✅ ✅ Confirmed attendees will receive a confirmation email before the event titled *"**AWS User Group Singapore: Registration Confirmed for AWS User Group Meetup – May 2026**."* You must present this email at the Level 2 Concierge to gain access to Level 5 for attendance verification. 🚶 Walk-ins (those without a confirmation email) will only be considered if the venue has not reached full capacity.

Hello Gophers! Our **Build Your Own Macropad: From Soldering to Software** workshop will be held on **20 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. All attendees will require a separate ticket, as a keyboard kit will be provided for you to take home. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg). Workshop description follows: In this hands-on workshop, you'll go from a pile of parts to a fully functional, custom macropad. The morning is dedicated to soldering your hardware, and the afternoon is all about bringing it to life using TinyGo. A proven experience from Japan — the TinyGo Keeb Tour has successfully hosted 10 events across various cities since 2024, helping participants build their own zero-kb02 keyboards. Now, they're bringing this experience to Singapore! New to soldering? No problem! The team will be right there to guide you through every step. There are plenty of spare parts, so there's no need to worry about making mistakes — it's all part of the learning process. ### Full Curriculum #### Meet the zero-kb02 The zero-kb02 isn't just a simple keypad — it's a powerful, programmable controller designed for versatility. You'll be building and coding with: * **Brain:** Powered by the RP2040 microcontroller * **Controls:** 12 keys for your favorite shortcuts * **Interaction:** A Joystick and a Rotary Encoder for intuitive navigation * **Visuals:** An OLED Display and RGB LEDs to show status and add flair #### Endless Possibilities with TinyGo Beyond a simple keypad, the zero-kb02 is a gateway to embedded development. With the extensive documentation and the power of TinyGo, you can transform it into: * **Musical Instruments:** Create a buzzer-based synth or a MIDI controller * **Gadgets:** Build a weather station using I2C sensors and the OLED display * **Gaming:** Run 2D games using koebiten (a TinyGo-friendly subset of Ebitengine) * **Fully Customizable Keyboard:** It's Vial-compatible, allowing you to remap keys and change settings directly from your web browser #### Morning: Soldering Workshop You'll assemble your own zero-kb02 from scratch — soldering the RP2040 microcontroller, keys, joystick, rotary encoder, OLED display, and RGB LEDs. Expert staff will guide you through every step. #### Afternoon: Programming with TinyGo With your macropad assembled, you'll bring it to life with TinyGo firmware. Learn how to program key mappings, control the OLED display, drive RGB LEDs, and read the joystick and rotary encoder — all in Go. By the end of the day, you'll leave with a custom keyboard that you built and programmed yourself. See you there! Cheers, GoSG for GopherConSG 2026

Traditional project management—gantt charts, routine scope tracking, and basic WBS generation—is being automated at a terrifying speed. We are facing an extinction-level event for the "administrative PM." In this new world order, Agile is no longer just a framework; it is your only survival mechanism. The irreplaceable human elements of Agile—adaptability, complex decision-making, and navigating human chaos—are the only shields against being completely replaced by algorithms. In this session, we will face this harsh reality and discover together how we can leverage AI rather than being replaced by it. We will explore four cutting-edge, AI-powered approaches designed to augment the irreplaceable human PM. Join us to understand why you must evolve your Agile mindset today, or risk becoming obsolete tomorrow. **ABOUT THE SPEAKER** **Tao Chun Liu** (also known in the community as "PM Mayor") is a Global AI Subject Matter Expert (SME) with 9 years of hands-on experience in AI project implementation and over 10 years in Project Management. He is the Founder of PM Mayors. With over 6,000 hours of teaching and mentoring experience, Tao Chun specializes in bridging the gap between advanced AI capabilities (such as AI Agents and Vibe Coding) and practical Agile methodologies.
