UI/UX Design

**Description:** Are you fascinated by how programming languages work under the hood? Join our weekly meetup where we explore compilers, programming language design, and the diverse ecosystems that bring code to life! We've evolved from our OCaml roots into a vibrant community that examines programming languages from every angle. Whether you're curious about type systems, debating functional vs object-oriented paradigms, or diving into implementation details like Haskell's tuples, you'll find engaging discussions here. *** **🔍 What we explore:** • **Compiler construction phases** \- lexical analysis\, parsing\, type checking\, optimization\, and code generation • **Compilation targets & environments** \- virtual machines\, WebAssembly\, and LLVM • **Programming language features** \- type systems\, design trade\-offs across languages from OCaml to Rust to Haskell and beyond *** **👥 Who we are:** Our community includes: • Beginners taking their first steps into compiler construction • Experienced developers working on language implementations • Everyone in between! **We provide guidance and mentorship for those starting from scratch**, while also tackling advanced topics for seasoned practitioners. *** **💡 What happens in our sessions:** • Share compiler projects and implementation challenges • Debate language design decisions • Collaborate on solving interesting problems • Compare strategies (like garbage collection approaches) • Build toy language parsers together *** **🎯 Who should join:** • Compiler construction enthusiasts • Programming language designers • Type theory aficionados • VM implementers • OCaml, Haskell, Rust (or any language) enthusiasts • Anyone curious about what happens when you hit "compile" *** **📋 What to bring:** • Your curiosity about programming languages • A laptop if you want to code along • Any questions or projects you'd like to discuss **No prior compiler experience necessary** – just bring your enthusiasm for understanding how programming languages come to life!

HYBRID EVENT, VIRTUAL SPEAKER In this talk, Sean Hoar will explore the transformative journey of AI’s role in modern software engineering, from rapid prototyping (“Vibe Coding”) to strategic AI integration by skilled practitioners. It clarifies the distinctions between AI-assisted, AI-enabled, and practitioner-led approaches, offering insights into how developers can effectively adapt to and harness AI tools. The presentation also highlights recent advancements and practical strategies for leveraging AI in daily workflows and long-term development.

**\*This is an in-person event\*** Most people hold their ideas too tightly. They refine too early, hesitate to share half-formed concepts, and wait for “perfect” before putting anything in front of a user. Frankie Abralind works the opposite way and that mindset is a big part of why his projects succeed. In this session, Frankie walks you through his real creative process: messy drafts, discarded versions, surprising user reactions, and the moments when he threw out something he loved because the evidence pushed him in a new direction. You’ll see firsthand how treating ideas as *disposable, not precious* accelerates learning and leads to better outcomes. You’ll also get to examine real artifacts from the development of his games **BrainSpin**, **DIEKY**, and **eckso**. Explore prototypes, dive into design dilemmas, and hear candid stories of iteration, failure, and breakthrough that have earned former DT:DC director Frankie Abralind a reputation as an “entrepreneur who ships.” **What you'll learn** • What you need to test an idea quickly • Where to find real users (beyond friends and family) • How to ask non-leading, non-biasing questions • User-testing methods that uncover meaningful insights • Best practices for rapid iteration • How to log feedback, share modifications, and track updates • How to receive feedback with openness and use it productively • How to build, and reward, a network of testers and supporters **Agenda** **6:00pm** – Snacks & connection **6:30pm** – Case Study 1: *BrainSpin* — finding user testers **6:50pm** – Case Study 2: *DIEKY* — play tester appreciation **7:10pm** – Case Study 3: *eckso* — rapid prototyping **7:30pm** – *Zenmo* — live user testing **8:00pm** – Debrief & questions **8:30pm** – Adjourn **About our presenter** **Frankie Abralind** is an experience designer, artist, and neurodiversity advocate. He earned his MBA from the University of Maryland, where he has taught “Innovative Thinking” to graduate students since 2014. He also served as co-director of the Innovation Hub at Johns Hopkins Sibley Memorial Hospital. In 2018, Frankie co-founded **The Good Listening Project**, a nonprofit dedicated to strengthening psychological safety in healthcare. He is the inventor of the bestselling game **BrainSpin**, which showcases the power of divergent thinking and collaboration. Today, he leads the stealth startup **Zenmo**, which helps people connect through color. He’s Autistic (and proud!)
