Mobile with Mendix: Current Capabilities, Future Direction
Join us in Berlin for an evening dedicated to the present and future of mobile development with Mendix.
In the first session, a developer from BlueBerk will share real-world insights from a recently completed large-scale Mendix Native project. The talk will cover the current state of native development, common limitations teams face today, and practical workarounds that proved successful in production.
In the second session, a Product Manager from Mendix will provide a forward-looking perspective on mobile development with the Mendix platform. He will discuss the available mobile options today and what’s coming next, helping you understand how to choose the right approach for your project. The presentation will compare native mobile and Progressive Web App (PWA) strategies and introduce the PWA Wrapper as a flexible and practical alternative for many scenarios.
Whether you are currently building mobile apps or planning your next Mendix project, this meetup will give you valuable hands-on experience, architectural guidance, and a clear view of the platform’s mobile
AI Is Already Screening You – Learn How to Win Jobs, Clients & Projects
Learn how to use AI to get past screening systems and land real opportunities — from jobs to freelance projects.
Companies are already using AI to filter CVs before a human ever reads them. That's the reality. But here's the thing - AI is just a tool. And tools can be used by both sides.
In this hands-on workshop - hosted by the Smart Coop Germany - you'll learn how to use Claude AI to write applications that work with AI screening systems, not against them. Sharper CVs, stronger cover letters, better chances. This workshop is part of Smart's commitment to its community: freelancers who are self-employed, but not alone. Whether you're looking for your next client, a new project, or a full-time role - this is for you.
What to bring:
\- Laptop or iPad \(smartphone only = tough mode 😅\)
\- Claude account \(free tier works\, paid recommended\)
\- Your CV \+ a cover letter \(any version\)
\- LinkedIn or Xing profile as PDF if you have one
\- 1\-2 digital photos of yourself or your work
Limited to \~15 people - because this is a real workshop, not a lecture.
Trainer:
Thomas Fischer is a Berlin-based IT consultant with 15+ years in the game. While studying Security & Safety Engineering, he started building an Arduino-based monitoring system for a nuclear reactor. As a consultant, he made his mark building the test infrastructure for the VPN-Zugangsdienst of Germany's electronic health card. He ran Europe's first car-hacking workshop at Confidence in Cracow and has presented at security conferences in Odessa, Budapest, and Cracow. In the last year, he dove deep into Berlin's AI scene, publishing his own apps and building Industry 4.0 ecosystems.
Hosted at Smart Cooperative Germany as the part of WorkCoopHub projects, funded by BMWE.

**📅 19:15 - Logs as a First-Class Citizen - How Lightspeed Commerce evolved logs to unlock the full power of Datadog**
**(30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Rein Martha, Staff Software Engineer, Lightspeed Commerce
When Lightspeed started with Datadog, we didn't begin with traces or metrics — we began with evolving our logs. Raw, unstructured, and full of noise. The first step was making them worth keeping: trimming duplicates, removing what no one ever read, and transforming what remained into structured, queryable signals.
That foundation changed everything. Once logs became first-class — with clean attributes, consistent structure, and a clear purpose for every line — the rest of the observability stack followed naturally. Monitors built on log queries. Dashboards that actually meant something on incidents. Metrics generated directly from log attributes, giving us long-term retention without the cost of keeping everything raw.
**📅 19:45 - Best Practices for Alerting with Datadog (30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Santiago Gomez Saez, Datadog ambassador & Principal Cloud Architect @ **[dxone](https://www.dx.one.gmbh/)**
Operational excellence is the main objective of SRE teams. Focusing on alerting, this talk shares common pitfalls and best practices on how and when to alert when incidents occur. In addition, we show how to self-heal in some cases requiring no manual intervention.

Silent morning walk
DEUTSCH SIEHE UNTEN
===
Our silent walks are finally here. We challenge you to join us in the next two weeks for a daily silent walk in the morning through Hasenheide.
**In a nutshell:** we meet at 07:55 am in front of Little Johns Bikes (1 minute walk away from metro Südstern), and at 08:00 am we start walking together into Hasenheide for a one-hour loop, finishing where we started. It is a completely silent activity, from start to finish, from hello to goodbye, and we ask you to respect that. Even if you come with friends, please do not talk during the walk.
**Why should you join these walks?**
The idea is to create space for a few simple things.
First, a chance to start the day by being outside and seeing morning light for a longer stretch of time. Morning light helps regulate our circadian rhythm, and being outdoors makes that light much more effective than staying inside.
Second, a chance to be together without small talk, or any talk at all. We invite you to feel accompanied without having to think about what to say or make conversation.
Third, a chance to take some mindful time. While we walk, we invite you to notice the park around you and stay in the moment. What was your favourite bird today? How many bikes passed us? What sound do our steps make on grass, and how does that change on gravel? We will offer one optional daily question or challenge to help you stay grounded.
And fourth, a chance to move, which is simply a great way to start the day feeling good.
=====
Wir laden euch ein, in den nächsten zwei Wochen jeden Morgen mit uns einen stillen Spaziergang durch Hasenheide zu machen.
**Kurz gesagt:** Wir treffen uns um 07:55 vor Little Johns Bikes, nur eine Minute zu Fuß von der Metrostation Südstern entfernt, und um 08:00 gehen wir von dort gemeinsam in Hasenheide und machen dort eine einstündige Runde, die wieder am Ausgangspunkt endet. Es ist eine komplett stille Aktivität, von Anfang bis Ende, und wir bitten euch, das zu respektieren. Auch wenn ihr mit Freund\*innen kommt, sprecht bitte während des Spaziergangs nicht.
**Warum mitmachen?**
Die Spaziergänge bieten...
Die Idee ist, Raum für ein paar einfache Dinge zu schaffen.
... eine Möglichkeit, den Tag draußen zu beginnen und das Morgenlicht über einen längeren Zeitraum mitzunehmen. Morgenlicht hilft dabei, unseren zirkadianen Rhythmus zu regulieren, und draußen ist dieses Licht viel wirksamer als drinnen.
... eine Möglichkeit, zusammen zu sein, ohne Smalltalk oder überhaupt reden zu müssen. Wir laden euch ein, euch begleitet zu fühlen, ohne überlegen zu müssen, worüber ihr sprechen sollt oder wie ihr ein Gespräch anfangen könnt.
... eine Möglichkeit, sich etwas achtsame Zeit zu nehmen. Während wir gehen, laden wir euch ein, den Park um euch herum wahrzunehmen und im Moment zu bleiben. Welcher Vogel hat euch heute am besten gefallen? Wie viele Fahrräder sind an euch vorbeigefahren? Wie klingen unsere Schritte auf Gras, und wie verändert sich das auf Kies? Jeden Tag geben wir euch eine optionale kleine Frage oder Beobachtungsaufgabe mit, die euch helfen kann, geerdet zu bleiben.
Und eine Möglichkeit, sich zu bewegen, was einfach ein guter Start in den Tag ist :)

Join us this Saturday afternoon in Berlin for a relaxed coffee hang-out where this week's agenda is good company & warm drinks. You're also invited to bring some boardgames, drawing/coloring materials (I will bring an adult coloring book)

**Who’s welcome?**
Everyone! Whether you’re a Berliner born and raised, newly arrived in the city, from Germany or abroad, if you like meeting open-minded folks and spending some relaxed time—come join us.
**When & how?**
Saturday afternoon. Detailed time and place in our Telegram group.
➡️ Join us on Telegram: [https://t.me/berlinsaturdaycoffee](https://t.me/berlinsaturdaycoffee)
Hop in, say hello, and we’ll share the final details.

Respect and Safety:
There is always at least one organizer present at every meetup. If you ever feel unsafe or bothered by someone’s behavior, you can reach out to an organizer privately. Your identity will remain confidential, your concern will be taken seriously, and no inappropriate behavior is tolerated — anyone making others feel uncomfortable will be removed from the group immediately.
We hope to see you there. Bring yourself, your smile, drawing materials, your stories—or just your comfy self.
Let’s make Saturday a little more laid-back, a little more social and a lot more nice.
See you soon!

**Mandarin Learner Meetup in Berlin! *(Free resources below)***
**Learning Mandarin is like trying to tame a** 🐲**.**
It can feel frustrating, but you’re not alone. **[WeHanzi](wehanzi.com)** is here to support!
**[WeHanzi](wehanzi.com)** is an independently built iOS app created by Ben and Gina.
We've turned the entire learning experience into ***Comprehensible Input* through both simplified and traditional manga** with support for **Zhuyin**, **Pinyin**, **flashcards**, **audio**, **direct translation**, an integrated dictionary.
We also specifically design region-specific language to reflect real-life usage in both **mainland Chinese Mandarin** and **Taiwanese Mandarin**, allowing you to naturally compare and explore the differences between the two, so you don’t end up saying something that makes perfect sense in Beijing, but gets you funny looks in Taipei 😏.
Now, together with our good friend Matthias from **[Gemeinsam Chinesisch & Deutsch lernen](https://www.meetup.com/gemeinsam-mandarin-chinesisch-und-deutsch-lernen/events/308204343/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events),** we’re inviting you to our very first **in-person Mandarin Learner Meetup in Berlin** together!
All levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced learners. Just come hang out, share your stories, laugh at our tone mistakes! As a community, we can learn from each other and turn Mandarin into a piece of cake! 🍰
**Come and join us!**

[https://maps.app.goo.gl/L8SuKJxoLLa8hXCdA](https://maps.app.goo.gl/L8SuKJxoLLa8hXCdA)
We'll meet at the meeting spot first and then - depending on the weather - decide as a group to either walk around Tempelhofer Feld or go to a closeby restaurant to warm up and chat. So please be on time. Or if you are running late or can't find us, just give Matthias a call on 0176-21984345.
See you all soon,

[https://goo.gl/maps/6Fhft3LbPhcEsQrdA](https://goo.gl/maps/6Fhft3LbPhcEsQrdA)
The exact meeting spot can be seen in the photo below!
We meet on the 1st floor where the trash sculpture can be seen. Look for a meetup sign or organizer wearing a black or red lanyard with "staff" written on it.
**2.) Walk & Talk to the Kerb food court**
The best part. In order to extend the walk we'll stroll all the way to Brandenburger gate and from there to the former Sony Center where we are going to enter the Kerb foodcourt.
**3\. How to find the Kerb food court**
[https://maps.app.goo.gl/xJTQg9oBoGL67syz7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/xJTQg9oBoGL67syz7)
Kerb is located at the former Sony Center. The new flagship food court of Potsdamer Platz. Most likely we will be sitting upstairs on the first floor next to the bar (take the stairs to the left).
***Best ways to get there:***
1\. U2 \(subway\):
Get off at Potsdamer Platz and walk around 7 min to Kerb.
2\. Bus M41 or M85
Get off at Potsdamer Platz and walk 5 min to Kerb.
*Who is this meetup for:*
1\. Asians who want to practice German and/or English\.
2\. German speaking individuals who are studying \(preferably\) Japanese\, Korean\, Mandarin or Cantonese\.
3\. Anyone who is interested in cultural exchange and wants to socialize\.
*What you can expect:*
1\. A professionally organized meetup that can adapt to any changes given the current situation\.
2\. A collaborating venue where you can further socialize with other members\.
*important: This event is held at the same time and meeting location like the "Networking & Language Exchange - 🍖international🍻" one. So I'm basically organizing 2 events at the same time which means that you can expect way more people than on the list.*
***
Whenever you attend a meetup, the most common as well as first question you get is: "Where are you from?"
You probably heard this question a million times. Well, at least I did.
From my own experience of attending over 200 international meetups in various countries such as Germany, Japan, Australia and Thailand, I can tell you that asking for the name is a better approach.
“A person’s name is to that person, the sweetest, most important sound in any language.” - Dale Carnegie
If you really want to connect with like-minded people you should remember their name, but you don't have to remember every persons name you've talked you. Be picky about that, don't be me who can somehow remember everyones name easily.
Don't tell yourself sth. like "I'm bad at remembering names." It's all about developing the habit of asking for a name and keep the conversation going on.
Furthermore, you want to learn German or any other language. Learning the local language is crucial to connect with the locals and developing a true friendship.
This can be accomplished with immersion. My goal is to inspire you to go out of your comfort zone and improve yourself each time you join this meetup.

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**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**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.
