ReactJS Barcelona - June 2026
June Meetup is here! Let's gooo!
Do you want to learn more about Micro Frontends? Then we have some experts in the house! Check it out 👇
──────────
**18:30: Welcome**
Grab a seat until everybody arrives!
**18:45 Intro by Hosts Neciu Dan & Erik Grijzen**
**19:00 8 Years of Micro Frontends @ New Relic: Lessons Learned**
Speaker: **Erik Grijzen, Principal Software Engineer**
New Relic started implementing a Micro Frontend architecture about eight years ago, before the concept of Micro Frontends even existed as an architectural pattern. Over the years, we’ve learned hard-won lessons on designing, scaling, and maintaining Micro Frontends. We will go over some of the most important architectural decisions that need to be considered and see how they have affected us. We will also cover some of the most common anti-patterns and discuss practical strategies to avoid them, illustrated with real-world examples.
**19:30** **Developing a micro-frontends open source framework**
Speaker: **Natalia Venditto, Engineer and hands-on architect at Adobe**
In this talk, I will talk about the technical challenges of building and maintaining an open source framework. What features we have prioritized while using it and solving real life problems, how we have monkey patched the browser to work on top of the web platform and make it agnostic and how we are working to port some of those features as standards
**19:50: Drinks and networking!**

🍺 Agentic Coding Meetup — Devs & Drinks
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 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.
WhatsApp Group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GVS0bHMPIzID3Ch9lt6YsU?mode=gi_t
**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.

Idiomes Sabadell & Vallès Occidental

* **ESP:** Intercambio de idiomas de Sabadell
* **DEU:** Sprachaustausch Sabadell
* **FRA:** Échange linguistique de Sabadell
* **ENG:** Sabadell Language Exchange
**CAT** Benvinguts a l'**Intercanvi d'idiomes de Sabadell**! Aquest grup està pensat per a tothom qui vulgui practicar idiomes i millorar les seves habilitats en un ambient social. Ens interessen tots els idiomes (català, castellà, anglès, francès, alemany, àrab, rus, xinès, persa, gallec, euskera, grec...), i ens agradaria especialment donar més espai als que sovint queden en segon pla. Normalment ens reunim en un bar, així que demanem que cadascú consumeixi alguna cosa a canvi d'utilitzar el local. A més, demanem una contribució d'**1 € per sessió** per cobrir les despeses de publicitat a la plataforma, que oscil·len entre 12 i 20 € segons el pla escollit. Dit això, som molt oberts i flexibles amb el format: podem quedar a l'aire lliure quan faci bon temps, en espais culturals com L'Estruch, en alguna associació de jocs de taula per fer una partida mentre practiquem idiomes, o fins i tot organitzar excursions i altres activitats. La idea és integrar els idiomes en la vida quotidiana, perquè creiem que és una de les millors maneres de practicar-los. En general, estem totalment oberts a noves propostes i idees.

**ESP** ¡Bienvenidos al **Intercambio de idiomas de Sabadell**! Este grupo está pensado para quien quiera practicar idiomas y mejorar sus habilidades en un ambiente social. Nos interesan todos los idiomas (catalán, castellano, inglés, francés, alemán, árabe, ruso, chino, persa, gallego, euskera, griego...), y nos gustaría especialmente dar más espacio a los que suelen quedar en un segundo plano. Normalmente nos reunimos en un bar, así que pedimos que cada persona consuma algo a cambio de utilizar el local. Además, pedimos una contribución de **1 € por sesión** para cubrir los gastos de publicidad en la plataforma, que oscilan entre 12 y 20 € según el plan escogido. Dicho esto, somos muy abiertos y flexibles con el formato: podemos quedar al aire libre cuando haga buen tiempo, en espacios culturales como L'Estruch, en alguna asociación de juegos de mesa para echar una partida mientras practicamos idiomas, o incluso organizar excursiones y otras actividades. La idea es integrar los idiomas en la vida cotidiana, porque creemos que esa es una de las mejores formas de practicarlos. En general, estamos totalmente abiertos a nuevas propuestas e ideas.

**DEU** Willkommen beim **Sprachaustausch Sabadell**! Diese Gruppe richtet sich an alle, die Sprachen üben und ihre Kenntnisse in geselliger Atmosphäre verbessern möchten. Uns interessieren alle Sprachen (Katalanisch, Spanisch, Englisch, Französisch, Deutsch, Arabisch, Russisch, Chinesisch, Persisch, Galizisch, Baskisch, Griechisch...), und wir möchten besonders denjenigen mehr Raum geben, die oft zu kurz kommen. Wir treffen uns meistens in einer Bar, daher bitten wir alle, als Gegenleistung für die Nutzung des Lokals etwas zu bestellen. Außerdem bitten wir um einen Beitrag von **1 € pro Treffen**, um die Werbekosten auf der Plattform zu decken, die je nach gewähltem Plan zwischen 12 und 20 € liegen. Davon abgesehen sind wir sehr offen und flexibel, was das Format betrifft: Bei gutem Wetter können wir uns auch draußen treffen, in Kulturräumen wie L'Estruch, in einem Brettspielverein für eine Partie nebenbei, oder wir organisieren Ausflüge und andere Aktivitäten. Die Idee ist, Sprachen in den Alltag zu integrieren; wir glauben, das ist einer der besten Wege, sie wirklich zu üben. Generell sind wir sehr offen für neue Vorschläge und Ideen.

**FRA** Bienvenue dans le groupe **Échange linguistique de Sabadell** ! Ce groupe s'adresse à toutes celles et ceux qui souhaitent pratiquer des langues et améliorer leurs compétences dans une ambiance conviviale. Toutes les langues nous intéressent (catalan, espagnol, anglais, français, allemand, arabe, russe, chinois, persan, galicien, basque, grec...), et nous aimerions particulièrement donner plus de place à celles qui sont souvent laissées de côté. Nous nous retrouvons généralement dans un bar, c'est pourquoi nous demandons à chacun de consommer quelque chose en échange de l'utilisation du lieu. Nous demandons également une contribution de **1 € par session** pour couvrir les frais de publicité sur la plateforme, qui s'élèvent entre 12 et 20 € selon le plan choisi. Cela dit, nous sommes très ouverts et flexibles sur le format : on peut se retrouver en plein air quand il fait beau, dans des espaces culturels comme L'Estruch, dans une association de jeux de société pour faire une partie tout en pratiquant, ou même organiser des sorties et d'autres activités. L'idée est d'intégrer les langues dans la vie quotidienne, car nous pensons que c'est l'une des meilleures façons de les pratiquer. En général, nous sommes totalement ouverts aux nouvelles propositions et idées.

**ENG** Welcome to **Sabadell Language Exchange**! This group is for anyone who wants to practise languages and improve their skills in a social setting. We're interested in all languages (Catalan, Spanish, English, French, German, Arabic, Russian, Chinese, Persian, Galician, Basque, Greek...), and we'd especially like to give more space to those that don't always get much of a look-in. We usually meet at a bar, so we ask everyone to order something in return for using the venue. We also ask for a **€1 contribution per session** to cover the cost of advertising on the platform, which runs between €12 and €20 depending on the plan chosen. That said, we're very open and flexible about the format: we can meet outdoors when the weather is nice, at cultural spaces like L'Estruch, at a board game club for a game while we practise, or even organise day trips and other activities. The idea is to weave languages into everyday life, as we believe it's one of the best ways to practise them. In general, we're completely open to new suggestions and ideas.

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

Sharp Objects - Gillian Flynn
Join us for Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn!
Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the unsolved murder of a preteen girl and the disappearance of another. For years, Camille has hardly spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the town. Now, installed in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims—a bit too strongly.
Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story-and survive this homecoming.
Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**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**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.
