Architecture Health & Fitness Night – Architectural Fitness ♥️ in .NET #mashup
Hello everybody,
As this is a **#mashup meetup**, please be aware, that you have to **register outside of meetup** to join the event (because of room limitations).
⇒ **[Link to register for the meetup](https://techtalk.at/software-net-meetup-weiterentwicklung-modularer-monolithen-mit-architekturellen-fitnessfunktionen/)**[!](https://techtalk.at/software-net-meetup-weiterentwicklung-modularer-monolithen-mit-architekturellen-fitnessfunktionen/)
After our strong start into the new year with the *[Architecture Health & Fitness Night – From Debt to Durable Systems](https://www.meetup.com/de-de/softwarearchitektur-wien/events/312499002/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events)*, we’re heading straight into the next architecture workout in February 💪.
Together with [DotNetDevs.at](https://dotnetdevs.at/), we’re focusing on a topic that many teams care about—especially those who deliberately don’t want to jump into microservices right away.
**“[Evolving Modular Monoliths with Architectural Fitness Functions](https://techtalk.at/software-net-meetup-weiterentwicklung-modularer-monolithen-mit-architekturellen-fitnessfunktionen/)”** – concrete, pragmatic, and in a .NET context.
Look forward to a hands‑on experience report on how to deliberately evolve a modular monolith, protect architectural boundaries, and use fitness functions to stay clean and extensible in the long run.
**Agenda**
🕡 **18:00** – Doors open at TechTalk
🕕 **18:15** – Intro & Talk 🗣️ *Evolving modular monoliths with architectural fitness functions*
🕗 **19:15** – 🍕Food & 🍻Drinks sponsored by [TechTalk](https://techtalk.at/) 🎉
We're looking forward to another evening full of architectural practice, exchange, and great conversations.

Free Meditation & Yoga – just show up – we start at 19.00 on Thursdays
Hello there!
We'd like to welcome you to our FREE Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings hosted by Wolfgang, Hamid, Anil, Shantanu & friends which take place in Vienna – 7pm Thursdays.
With Sahaja Yoga Meditation we normally sit on chairs to achieve yoga, effortlessly & spontaneously. So there is no need for mats and no special clothing required.
We are all volunteers of a Charity association and have many years of experience in offering free Sahaja Yoga Meditation classes.
All across the globe, many are seeking new sources of energy. Meanwhile, the most transformative energy of all is hiding in plain sight, within us. It's natural, sustainable, and infinitely renewable. It's called inner kundalini energy. And everyone already has it — everyone!. It is often likened to an inner feminine or motherly energy which automatically knows about us and what is needed to help us restore balance and harmony within our subtle being. It works spontaneously, effortlessly, organically and cannot be paid for.
The classes are designed to help those attending get into a genuine meditative state, which can be felt tangibly. It is quite effortless and spontaneous.
The free classes feature introductory talks, video's, practical workshops and general question and answer opportunities, making them perfect for seekers trying to establish a state of yoga, and they are available across Vienna most evenings and throughout Austria.
The idea is that you don't do yoga - you Achieve Yoga!
Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a simple, time-honored technique. It helps those who enjoy it, reduce stress and increase wellness and health holistically. It brings better focus and helps people become more centered and better balanced. Anyone can do it.
Founded by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a world wide movement for peace and self awakening.
All the meetings and classes are free of any charge. Each week we go through simple meditation techniques, often with guided meditations to help reduce stress and achieve the peace of true meditation.
We share tips on how to help stay in balance during the day and how to meditate at home. The meditation is based on connecting with the inner chakras (energy centres) and balancing the subtle body.
The tradition and aims of meditation are explained which in essence is to be in the present with no mental activity or thoughts about the past or the future.
Occasionally there are 1 day retreats to help those interested, deepen their individual experience and hear advice and tips from those who have been practicing for some time. It’s ultimately all about getting into ‘thoughtless awareness’, a natural state of being.
10 Reasons to try-out Sahaja Yoga Meditation in Vienna in 2015
It’s easy.
You don’t have to spend years living in the mountains to achieve enlightenment. You don’t have to give up anything or spend weeks in silence. You don’t have to learn mantras or wear special clothes or even try to clear my mind. The meditation simply happens spontaneously. The classes are easy and fun, and as long as you keep up your daily ten minutes of meditation you find you are able to achieve a deep and peaceful meditation on a regular basis.
It’s free.
You don’t pay for your meditation. There are no catches, and there are no hidden expenses. If you missed attending classes one week, it doesn’t matter. You just picked up the classes again when you could manage it. It is simply the generosity of spirit of other Sahaja Yoga meditation practitioners that allows Sahaja Yoga to be taught to whomever desires it, at no cost.
You can see results.
You feel relaxed and you feel a deep sense of calm. Now you can also feel your chakras (energy centres) and through the meditation techniques learnt along the way you can understand the vibrations of your own energy centres. If you feel unwell you meditate and use the techniques you’ve learnt to heal your chakras, and you can then feel the centres clearing, and as a consequence your health improves.
It’s all-inclusive.
All the major religions and their core teachings are acknowledged and respected in Sahaja Yoga. No one’s spiritual journey is right or wrong. And through meditation the wisdom of all the great gurus and saints is easily revealed and understood. In fact, you’ll find that since you’ve been meditating you’ll come to understand and appreciate the teachings of great teachers such as Lao Tse, Buddha and Mohammed.
You’re your own boss.
You meditate and introspect at your own pace. You don’t have to keep up with others, or feel pressured into doing things you’re not comfortable with. You are your own teacher, your own guru, your own master. This technique of meditation empowers you and enables you to help yourself. You don’t have to rely on anybody else. Of course, there are many people who practice Sahaja Yoga Meditation who can teach you a great deal about the yoga & meditation and its various techniques. However, all that you need is ultimately within you.
It’s everywhere.
Sahaja Yoga is practiced in almost every country in the world. So, no matter where you travel you can always locate a local Sahaja Yoga Meditation programme that you can attend. Whenever you get the chance, and no matter where you are, You try to link up with other Sahaja Yoga practitioners and enjoy a collective meditation. (Meditating with others is a much deeper and more powerful experience than meditating alone.)
It’s portable.
You don’t need to take anything with you to meditate: no mats, no potions, no special clothing or books. You can meditate anywhere – in a quiet room or on a noisy bus; at the beach or watching a movie. Thoughtless awareness (the state of meditation) is easy to achieve if you keep meditating daily, and it can be achieved in almost any situation.
It makes sense.
Everything you’ll learn will make sense. There is a lot of common sense in Sahaja Yogameditation, and even though not everything was known to you (for example, the chakras and their respective qualities), once you have a chance to learn more about the meditation, it feels very natural and comfortable.
Everybody does it.
When you begin a hobby or join a new group, you often find that there are particular types of people who are in the group with you. For example, some groups attract younger people, others older folk; some groups have a lot of people who are wealthy, or people who live in a certain part of town. In Sahaja Yoga you will find people from every walk of life, from every demographic – male and female, young and old, rich and poor, every shape, size and colour, with varying interests, languages and beliefs. You don’t have to be a certain type of person to do Sahaja Yoga meditation. It is one of those rarities: something for everybody.
You feel good.
Without fail, every time you sit down to meditate you feel better. Whether you manage to have a deep meditation or not makes no difference, and as a consequence your family and friends are reaping the benefits.
So there you have it......ten reasons......

[ONSITE] Evolving Modular Monoliths with architectural fitness functions
This event is for people who join the event in person at TechTalk (https://techtalk.at/).
As this is a **#mashup meetup**, please be aware, that you have to **register outside of meetup** to join the event (because of room limitations).
**Please register here for the event: [https://techtalk.at/software-net-meetup-weiterentwicklung-modularer-monolithen-mit-architekturellen-fitnessfunktionen/](https://techtalk.at/software-net-meetup-weiterentwicklung-modularer-monolithen-mit-architekturellen-fitnessfunktionen/)**
If you join the event remotely, please RSVP here: https://www.meetup.com/dotnet-austria/events/313069017
This meetup is organized by DotNetDevs.at (https://dotnetdevs.at/) together with the Softwarearchitektur Wien Meetup (https://www.meetup.com/softwarearchitektur-wien/).
**Abstract**
In this talk, Patrick Säuerl (Tech Lead/Architect) and Tim Paulus (Developer) will share their journey of evolving a software project towards a modular monolith with consistent layering.
The system started over 10 years ago as a monolith, and many teams have developed within it, adding their flavors and understanding of the architectural patterns and the architecture trends at that time.
This has led to maintenance issues and unclear guidance for new developers.
We tackled parts of this by introducing tests that ensure the layering of vertical slices is consistent.
Our solution is based on the following approaches:
\* Fitness Functions from Evolutionary Architecture
\* Ports & Adapters and Layered Architecture
\* Approval Testing
\* Architecture Tests
We will cover these topics and the ideas we borrowed from them.
The talk will also focus on the dynamics that these tests initiated within the team and another contributing team, leading to fruitful discussions, better shared understanding of the technical vision, and clear refactoring targets for developers.
**About Tim Paulus:**
As a developer, Tim faces the typical challenge of inheriting a software project with proven business value in its domain, yet needing to transform its architecture to meet new technical and organizational requirements.
**About Patrick Säuerl:**
Patrick is an experienced software architect and technical lead who has supported numerous teams and developers on their journey.
With several years of experience in various projects, he has shifted his focus to technical leadership, team collaboration, and Domain-Driven Design (DDD).
He places particular emphasis on collaborative modeling, with preferred methods including Specification by Example, User Story Mapping, Event Storming, and Event Modeling.
Patrick promotes both intra-team collaboration and cross-team collaboration in scaled environments.
Location, Food & Drinks are sponsored by TechTalk.

Vienna Film Forum February Meeting - No Other Choice!
Welcome to the Vienna Film Forum, a monthly discussion group dedicated to the love of cinema!
Think of us as cinema’s answer to your local book club. Each month, we pick a recent or upcoming movie release and meet up to share our thoughts on it. You watch the film on your own time and then meet up with us to discuss it, so make sure to plan in advance to see the film before you come to the Meetup!
We are an international group and are devoted to including expats and discussing films each month in English, though you need not necessarily have seen the film in English.
For this month, we will be discussing the new dark comedy thriller, No Other Choice, from South Korean auteur Park Chan-wook. This new film, set in the upper-middle class suburbs of South Korea, follows a man who falls out of work in the middle management of the paper industry and devotes himself to eliminating the competition — by any meansns necessary.
The film will release on February 5th in Austria and likely runs a couple weeks. Do some research to make sure you can find a screening and see it in time.
We hope you join us for a drink and a lively debate as we unpack the film!

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**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**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.
