Join us for an evening about visibility, marketing, and rebuilding digital communities in a post-AI world. This Meetup explores how we build presence and trust online today. From marketing WordPress products in an era of AI-generated noise to rethinking what healthy social media could look like, we’ll examine how developers, founders, and digital professionals can stand out, without losing authenticity. Instead of growth hacks and algorithm chasing, expect strong opinions, practical experience, and plenty of room for discussion. 🕡 18:30 live, SAE Vienna, Kaisersaal ⏱️ 18:45 – Rodolfo Melogli **“Marketing for Developers After AI + Live WooCommerce Q&A”** Marketing for developers has changed fast. With AI making content cheap and abundant, volume is no longer an advantage, it’s noise. In this talk, Rodolfo Melogli explains why personality, taste, and a clear point of view are now the real differentiators, especially for developers building WordPress products, plugins, or services. You’ll learn how to build a recognizable presence in public without chasing algorithms or trying to become an influencer. Instead, we’ll explore practical ways to turn everyday developer work, shipping features, solving support tickets, sharing opinions into marketing that actually works. The session concludes with a live WooCommerce Q&A, applying these ideas to real-world product and growth challenges developers face today. Rodolfo is an author, WooCommerce expert, and founder of [Business Bloomer](https://www.businessbloomer.com), [Checkout Summit](https://checkoutsummit.com), and WCWKLY. He has worked as an independent WooCommerce freelancer since 2011, helping entrepreneurs and developers overcome their WooCommerce challenges. Outside of work, he enjoys traveling, playing tennis and soccer, and of course, wood-fired oven pizza. ⏱️ 19:45 – Michael Eisenriegler **black•box 2026: Social Media as It Should Be** Founded in 1992, Black•Box was Austria’s first online community and anticipated many features that define today’s social media platforms. But back then, there were no manipulative algorithms, no bots, and far fewer trolls and fake accounts. In this talk, Michael Eisenriegler shares how the original spirit of Black•Box can be revived using modern technology. The goal: to create digital spaces where people feel comfortable, connect meaningfully, and can truly relax online again. We bring the “Social” back into Social Media. Michael Eisenriegler (born 1964) studied Communication Science and Political Science and has been working with digital networks as human communication spaces since 1990. He is co-founder and managing director of [MediaClan GmbH](https://www.mediaclan.at) and GenSoup GmbH. His focus areas include integrated communication strategies, social media consulting, and online genealogy. He also teaches Online Journalism at the University of Vienna. Whether you’re building WordPress products, running an agency, experimenting with AI-driven marketing, or rethinking what digital communities should look like in 2026, this Meetup will give you practical insights, fresh perspectives, and great conversations with fellow web professionals.

Well you know it, typescript transpiles to javascript. Your templates? Also javascript. Compilation and typechecking, you guessed it. Also javascript. All the tooling was javascript until ... well when? Thats the question. 😇 **Manfred Steyer \- Angular Architects \| [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/manfred-steyer-84645821/)** Agentic UI with Angular: Implementing AI-powered Assistants More and more frontends integrate Agentic UI and AI assistants that answer questions, display dynamic components, pre-fill forms, and guide users through processes. In this session, I demonstrate how to bring these capabilities into both existing and new Angular applications. We explain how to provide the necessary context via state management, forms, and routing, and show how the assistant uses tool-calling to access Angular services and generate dynamic UIs. After this session, you will know the technical steps required to extend your Angular solutions with a powerful AI assistant. **Dmytro Mezhenskyi \- Decoded Frontend \| [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmezhenskyi/)** The Secret Life of Events in Angular You've written (click) hundreds of times. But have you ever wondered what's actually happening behind the scenes? Angular's event system has a hidden layer — one that lets you do things most developers don't even know are possible. In this talk, we'll pull back the curtain, explore how it all works under the hood, and see how to apply this magic directly in your real-world projects. **Dániel Szendrei \- AGFA Healthcare \| [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-szendrei-2056b0113/)** All the terrible Angular hacks I had to do so you don't have to Have you ever wanted to create a custom lifecycle hook for services in Angular? Or tried to use Angular’s DI inside an InjectionToken factory? Probably not, and that’s perfectly fine. I did, though, and it led me down a path of some truly strange Angular hacks. Maybe you’ll find them useful; at the very least, I promise they’ll be entertaining. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-❤️🤝❤️ Sponsors ❤️🤝❤️ \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **PushBased** PushBased is a close-knit group of IT experts offering their knowledge and services in #Angular #RxJS #NestJS #JavaScript #TypeScript #webperf #Nx and more.

We’re heading back to Scene75 on Friday, March 27 for a high-energy night of laser tag, mini golf, go-karts, arcade games, and whatever chaos we decide to get into. We’ve done this one before and it was a blast — great turnout, tons of laughs, and just the right mix of competition and hanging out. If you missed it last time, this is your shot. 🎯 What to Expect: Laser tag battles Mini golf challenges Go-karts (for those who need speed) Arcade games & game cards You can load however much you’d like onto a game card. Most people will probably be good with $15–$30, but it’s totally up to you. This is a super casual event — show up, jump into whatever looks fun, rotate groups, and hang out. No pressure, no complicated structure. Just a solid Friday night with good people. Also… I haven’t hosted in a bit and I’m making a push to be more active again. If you’ve got ideas for future events you’d love to do, bring them. I’m all ears. Let’s run it back. 🔥
