The Most Native Kubernetes App
Hej Gophers,
unser nächstes Treffen wird am Dienstag, 14. April stattfinden. Wir freuen uns, dass [Lukas Nagel](https://github.com/lukasngl/) von [MeKo Manufacturing](http://www.meko.de/) den Abend inhaltlich zum Thema "The Most Native Kubernetes App" gestalten wird.
Was wäre, wenn wir nur das Kubernetes-Cluster zur Verfügung hätten? Wir entwicklen eine ToDo-App ausschließlich mit Kubernetes-Bordmitteln, zeigen, warum das keine gute Idee ist, und wie man mit diesen Patterns nützliche Operatoren implementieren kann.
Wir treffen uns um 18 Uhr bei [enercity](https://www.enercity.de/). Mit dem Vortrag starten wir um 18:30 Uhr. Danach wollen wir über Technologien und Erfahrungen plaudern, voneinander lernen, Kontakte knüpfen und einfach eine tolle Zeit miteinander verbringen.
[enercity](https://www.enercity.de/) sponsert uns die Verpflegung - vielen Dank dafür! Getränke sind reichlich vorhanden und wir planen Pizza zu bestellen.
**Für die vor Ort-Teilnahme bitte unbedingt beachten:**
* **Anmeldung** zum MeetUp Event muss bis **Montag, 13.04.2026,** **18 Uhr** erfolgt sein.
* Für den Zugang ins Gebäude wird der **volle Name** für die Anmeldung beim Pförtner benötigt. Wenn in der Anmeldung nicht bereits angegeben, sende daher unbedingt bis zum Anmeldeschluss deinen vollen Namen an einen der Organisatoren, Anna, Mark oder Sebastian "Mo", in einer privaten Nachricht.
Wir freuen uns auf dich!

Hello Gophers!
Our next meeting will take place on Tuesday, 14 April. We are delighted to welcome [Lukas Nagel](https://github.com/lukasngl/) from [MeKo Manufacturing](http://www.meko.de/) with the topic "The Most Native Kubernetes App". The talk will be German.
What if we only had the Kubernetes cluster at our disposal? We'll develop a ToDo app using only Kubernetes' bulit-in tools, demonstrate why this isn't a good idea, and show how these patterns can be used to implement useful operators.
We will meet at 6 pm at [enercity](https://www.enercity.de/). The talk starts at 6:30pm. Afterwards, we want to chat about technologies and experiences, learn from each other, socialise and simply have a great time together.
[enercity](https://www.enercity.de/) is sponsoring the catering - thank you very much! There will be plenty of drinks and we plan to order pizza.
**Please note for on-site participation:**
* **Registration** for the MeetUp event must be completed by **6 pm** on **Monday, 13th April 2026**.

19:30 - **Modern front-end without API: Laravel + Inertia. js** \- Pascal Baljet
20:30 - Social
**Modern front-end without API: Laravel + Inertia. js**
Inertia.js lets you build modern single-page applications using your favorite backend and frontend frameworks, without needing to write an API. You use server-side routing and controllers, but render frontend components instead of server-rendered templates. In this talk, I’ll show how features like forms with real-time validation, deferred props, prefetching, infinite scroll, and polling work. All within a single repository.
tech&talk × n8n Meetup im Ruhrgebiet
**Um was geht es dieses mal?**
Dieses Mal findet das Meetup in Kooperation mit dem **n8n Meetup im Ruhrgebiet** statt und wird wie immer bei uns bei codecentric in Dortmund ausgerichtet.
Beim 3. n8n Meetup im Ruhrgebiet geht es wie immer darum, die Möglichkeiten von n8n besser kennenzulernen, Erfahrungen zu teilen, voneinander zu lernen und sich mit anderen auszutauschen. Dieses Mal steht das Meetup zusätzlich im Zeichen von Vibe Coding und schnellem Prototyping. Im Fokus steht, wie sich n8n als Backend für Automatisierungen, Schnittstellen und Logik im Hintergrund mit Vibe Coding für die schnelle Entwicklung von Frontends verbinden lässt, um in kurzer Zeit funktionierende Prototypen, interne Tools und erste MVPs umzusetzen. Anhand konkreter Beispiele und Live-Demos zeigen wir, wie aus einer Idee schnell etwas Nutzbares entsteht.
**Hybrides Setup!**
Wir freuen uns, euch bei uns in den Räumen der codecentric AG in Dortmund willkommen zu heißen. Vor Ort versorgen wir euch mit Snacks und Getränken und freuen uns gleichzeitig über interessante Diskussionen und einen guten Austausch. Für alle, die es nicht zu uns ins Office schaffen, werden wir das Meetup Hybrid durchführen. Der Stream beginnt ca. 10 Minuten später, damit wir vor Ort ausreichend Möglichkeit für persönliches Kennenlernen haben.
Den Live-Stream findet ihr auf dem [YouTube-Channel](https://www.youtube.com/@codecentricAG) der codecentric AG.
**Wichtig - Absage bitte rechtzeitig:**
Wir bestellen das Essen bereits 3 Tage vor dem Meetup. Falls ihr doch verhindert sein solltet, bitten wir euch um eine rechtzeitige Absage. Das ist wichtig, damit wir nicht unnötig Essen verschwenden müssen. Vielen Dank für euer Verständnis!

Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for April is "Water"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
