🚀 **LeadDev Barcelona Meetup #6 – Empowering Engineering Leadership** We’re back for another edition of **LeadDev Barcelona Meetup**, tailored specifically for **tech leads, engineering managers**, and **engineering leaders** looking to sharpen their leadership skills and connect with like-minded professionals in the industry. This event is all about **leading teams, driving engineering excellence**, and exploring strategies that can help you **scale your leadership impact**. With inspiring talks from top professionals and ample networking opportunities, this is the perfect environment for learning, sharing insights, and forging connections with peers. **What can you expect?** * **Actionable leadership insights** on scaling engineering teams and improving productivity * **Networking with fellow tech leads, engineering managers**, and senior engineers * **Delicious refreshments and snacks**, courtesy of our sponsor, Manychat 📅 **Date:** 18th of June 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 18:00 - 21:00 📍 **Location:** [Manychat's Barcelona Office (Carrer de Pau Claris, 194, Eixample, 08037)](https://maps.app.goo.gl/7GaVtstraiSM5fHo7) **Agenda:** 18:00 – Arrival, networking, and refreshments 18:20 – Welcome from the hosts 18:30 – Welcome from the sponsor 18:35 – **The EM as Context Architect** \- Vlad Shuteev\, Engineering Manager at Manychat Engineering managers don't lose relevance because AI gets smarter — they lose it because context transfer becomes cheaper. In this talk, I share how I built a personal AI system that sees the same inputs I do: Slack channels, meeting transcripts, Notion docs, people profiles. The system learns my patterns over time and surfaces insights before action — not after. Through six concrete principles and real examples, I show what it means to architect context instead of carrying it in your head. And what stays irreversibly human: presence in 1:1s, lead-by-example moments, empathy in hard conversations. 19:00 - **Don't Delegate Understanding,** Pau Ramon, CEO at Ramensoft. Is this an AI talk or a Leadership talk? There's only one way to know. 19:25 – Closing remarks 19:30 – Networking with Food & Drinks 21:00 – Close Spaces are limited – **RSVP to secure your spot** and join a community of engineering leaders who are shaping the future of tech! Whether you're an established engineering manager or stepping into a leadership role, **LeadDev Barcelona Meetup** will give you the tools, insights, and connections to level up your career and make a lasting impact on your teams.

We’re thrilled to announce the next edition of the BcnRust Meetup, this time hosted by **[Protofy](https://protofy.xyz/)**! Join us for an evening exploring two very different but equally ambitious Rust projects: an AI-native virtual machine that rethinks how code is executed, and a distributed task queue built as a hands-on journey into async Rust, concurrency, and fault-tolerant systems. Whether you're interested in language runtimes, AI agents, distributed systems, or simply seeing how Rust enables bold ideas, this meetup is for you. **Driver: An Agentic VM in Rust** by [Cristian Sánchez](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cr3at0r/) Most virtual machines are deterministic by design. LLMs break that. But what if AI wasn't an external API on top, but a native execution primitive inside the VM itself? Driver is a Rust VM where AI is a first-class execution primitive. The stdlib is aware of whether it's being invoked by deterministic bytecode or by an LLM-generated action and behaves accordingly. We'll cover the practical decisions behind the core VM, and the toolkit around it. **Aether: Learning Async Rust by building a Distributed Task Queue** by [Arnau Berenguer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arnau-berenguer-jimenez/) Building a distributed system is a great way to learn async Rust because you run into all the hard parts for real. In this talk I'll walk through Aether, a personal project of a task queue that lets you submit and run Python scripts on a cluster from a CLI. We'll cover the system architecture, how to handle multiple concurrent tasks sharing state, how to handle loss of connection, and propagating cancellation signals on concurrent tasks over the network. Along the way we'll see the honest lessons learned and what makes async Rust hard but fun. **Why Attend?** * Explore advanced Rust applications, from AI-native runtimes to distributed infrastructure. * Learn practical lessons about virtual machine design, async programming, concurrency, and fault tolerance. * Discover how experienced Rust developers approach complex systems and architectural trade-offs. * Connect with Barcelona's Rust community and exchange ideas with fellow engineers, makers, and enthusiasts. * Get inspired by real-world projects that push Rust beyond the usual web services and CLI tools. Whether you're a Rust beginner curious about what's possible, or a seasoned developer looking to dive deeper into systems programming, you'll leave with new ideas, technical insights, and plenty to discuss. Let’s build, learn, and geek out over Rust together! 🦀 **Streaming**: We will stream it via YouTube so you can also subscribe to our [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@bcnrust) to get notified when we go live.

🧗🏻‍♀️💦🥾 **¿Quién se apunta a 5 días de senderismo (+ barranquismo y escalada en opción) en uno de los lugares más bonitos de España? ¡Nos vamos a la Sierra de Guara!** 🧗🏻‍♀️💦🥾 **Who´s up for 5 days of hiking (and optionally canyoning & climbing) in one of the most beautiful areas of Spain? We are going to the Sierra de Guara!** SEE ENGLISH TRANSLATION BELOW ⤵️ *¿Quieres venir pero quedarte menos días? Escríbenos por WhatsApp al +34699444539* **🥾 El plan** El Parque Natural de la Sierra de Guara, situado en el Prepirineo aragonés, es un territorio espectacular de cañones calizos, ríos de aguas cristalinas, pozas escondidas y pequeños pueblos con mucho encanto. Es uno de esos lugares que se disfrutan especialmente cuando hace calor, porque el paisaje no solo invita a caminar, sino también a disfrutar del agua durante la ruta. Eso es precisamente lo que hace de Sierra de Guara un destino de verano tan especial: muchas de las rutas de senderismo incluyen tramos en los que caminamos junto al río, cruzamos el agua, nos refrescamos en pozas naturales y disfrutamos de baños en plena naturaleza. En los días de más calor, podemos elegir rutas con menos distancia, pero eso no significa menos aventura ni menos tiempo al aire libre; más bien al contrario. Seguimos pasando el día entero activos en la naturaleza, combinando senderismo con caminar por el río, cruzar arroyos, bañarnos y disfrutar del paisaje de una forma más refrescante. En los días más frescos, aprovechamos para hacer rutas más largas y más centradas en caminar, recorriendo más distancia a pie sin dejar de disfrutar de la belleza de la zona. La Sierra de Guara también es mundialmente conocida como uno de los mejores lugares de Europa para practicar barranquismo y escalada. Por eso, este viaje puede ser tan centrado en el senderismo o tan aventurero como tú quieras: puedes venir simplemente a hacer las rutas de senderismo, o elegir sustituir uno o varios días de senderismo por actividades de barranquismo o escalada. Para más detalles y fotos, [haz clic aquí](https://www.yepalo.com/hiking-canyoning-sierra-de-guara).

YEPALO +34699444539 \-\-\-\-\-\-\- *Want to join the trip for a shorter time? WhatsApp us +34699444539* 🥾**The Plan** The Natural Park of Sierra de Guara, located in the Spanish Pre-Pyrenees, is a spectacular land of limestone canyons, crystal-clear rivers, hidden pools and small villages full of character. It’s one of those places that feels especially magical in warm weather, because the landscape invites you not only to hike, but also to **enjoy the water along the way**. This is what makes Sierra de Guara such a special summer destination: many of the hiking routes include sections where we **walk along the river, cross the water, cool off in natural pools and enjoy refreshing swims** in beautiful wild surroundings. On hotter days, we may choose routes with **less distance**, but that doesn’t mean less adventure or less time outdoors, quite the opposite. We still spend the full day active in nature, combining hiking with walking through the river, crossing streams, swimming, and fully enjoying the landscape in a more refreshing way. On cooler days, we take the opportunity to do **longer and more walking-focused hikes**, covering more distance on foot while still enjoying the beauty of the area. Sierra de Guara is also world-famous as one of the best places in Europe for **canyoning and climbing**. So this trip can be as hiking-focused or as adventure-focused as you want: you can simply join for the hikes, or choose to replace one or more hiking days with canyoning or climbing activities. For more details and pictures, [click here!](https://www.yepalo.com/hiking-canyoning-sierra-de-guara) While Barcelona fills with fireworks and noise for Sant Joan, we’ll be heading to nature for a very different kind of experience: fresh air, beautiful landscapes, water, and a much more peaceful way to celebrate those dates. **How to sign up?** Step 1: 👋 Sign up for Meetup on the attendee list Step 2: 💰Make the payment of €175 in our website: [https://www.yepalo.com/events/sierra-de-guara-5-days-hiking-in-the-paradise-of-huesca-4-nights](https://www.yepalo.com/events/sierra-de-guara-5-days-hiking-in-the-paradise-of-huesca-4-nights) IMPORTANT: This is the only way to ensure a place for the activity. 🚦**Difficulty level:** * Hikes: Easy - moderate: from 8 to 14km and 200 to 500m level difference. * Canyoning (optional): Easy.

His music blends folk, funk, flamenco guitar, groove and world music influences, creating something warm, playful, soulful and deeply human. Live, his music feels especially powerful: intimate, rhythmic, improvised, full of feeling and impossible not to smile with.

Think hidden paths, urban hills, nature inside the city, good views, a relaxed group and that peaceful moment when Barcelona starts changing light in the evening. The hike will be easy and accessible, but we’ll still walk on some uneven paths and go slightly up and down, so please wear comfortable shoes. At the end of the hike, we’ll sit down together and enjoy an intimate live concert by Mike Rauss in a secret corner. Bring your picnic, something to drink and a blanket or towel to sit on. This Hikoustics feels extra special for us. We discovered Mike’s music almost by accident on Spotify and instantly fell in love with his universe. Then we saw that one of his live songs had been recorded in Spain and thought: “Wait… maybe this guy plays here sometimes?” A few clicks later, we found out he was playing in El Masnou just two weeks later. So we went. And honestly… the concert was incredible. We met him after the show, became friends, and now we’re super happy to bring this Hikoustics session with someone who, for us, started as a little Spotify discovery and quickly became one of our musical crushes. **PRICE**: €16 Includes: Guided hike Live concert by Mike Rauss Insurance in case of accident + civil liability VAT **How to book your spot?** Step 1.

Su música mezcla folk, funk, guitarra flamenca, groove e influencias de músicas del mundo, creando algo cálido, juguetón, profundo y muy humano. En directo, su música tiene una energía muy especial: íntima, rítmica, improvisada, llena de emoción y de esas que te hacen sonreír sin darte cuenta. [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/user/mikerauss) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/mikerauss/) [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/intl-es/artist/15URpU4gE26vY1FCItg5gu) [Deezer](https://www.deezer.com/en/artist/60800782) ***Ahora sí, el plan con más detalle*** Quedaremos en el metro Guinardó (L4), en Barcelona, y haremos una ruta corta al atardecer por uno de esos rincones verdes, salvajes y menos evidentes de la ciudad. Piensa en senderos escondidos, colinas urbanas, naturaleza dentro de Barcelona, buenas vistas, un grupo tranquilo y ese momento tan bonito en el que la ciudad empieza a cambiar de luz al final del día. La ruta será fácil y accesible, pero caminaremos por algunos senderos irregulares y habrá pequeñas subidas y bajadas, así que ven con calzado cómodo. Al final de la caminata, nos sentaremos juntos para disfrutar de un concierto íntimo en directo con Mike Rauss en un rincón secreto. Trae tu picnic, algo para beber y una manta o toalla para sentarte. Este Hikoustics nos hace especial ilusión. Descubrimos la música de Mike casi por casualidad en Spotify y nos enamoramos al instante de su universo. Luego vimos que una de sus canciones en directo había sido grabada en España y pensamos: “Espera… ¿quizás este chico toca por aquí de vez en cuando?” Unos clics después, descubrimos que tocaba en El Masnou apenas dos semanas más tarde. Así que fuimos. Y sinceramente… el concierto fue increíble. Lo conocimos después del concierto, nos hicimos amigos y ahora estamos súper contentos de poder traer esta sesión de Hikoustics con alguien que, para nosotros, empezó como un pequeño descubrimiento en Spotify y acabó convirtiéndose en uno de nuestros crushes musicales. ***PRECIO***: 16 € Incluye: Ruta guiada Concierto en directo de Mike Rauss Seguro en caso de accidente + responsabilidad civil IVA **¿Cómo apuntarse?** 1.

Desde las antiguas leyendas hasta las películas más inspiradoras de nuestro tiempo, todas las grandes historias comparten una misma estructura: el Viaje del Héroe. Un recorrido universal que comienza cuando una persona escucha una llamada al cambio y se atreve a abandonar lo conocido para descubrir quién puede llegar a ser. En esta conferencia exploraremos el fascinante modelo desarrollado por **Joseph Campbell** y comprenderemos por qué este arquetipo aparece una y otra vez en mitos, religiones, novelas, películas y, sobre todo, en nuestras propias vidas. Descubriremos cómo cada etapa del viaje —la llamada, la resistencia, los mentores, las pruebas, la crisis, la transformación y el regreso— refleja los procesos que atravesamos cuando buscamos crecer, reinventarnos y dar un paso hacia una versión más auténtica de nosotros mismos. A través de ejemplos inspiradores, reflexión y diálogo, aprenderemos a reconocer en qué punto de nuestro propio viaje nos encontramos, cómo superar los miedos que nos frenan y cómo convertir las dificultades en oportunidades para desarrollar fortaleza, sabiduría y propósito. Porque el verdadero héroe no es quien vive una vida sin problemas, sino quien encuentra el valor para atravesarlos y emerge transformado al otro lado. Una conferencia para quienes sienten que están llamados a algo más y desean descubrir el mapa que puede guiarlos hacia su próxima gran aventura interior. ✨🔥 **¿Qué obtendrás de esta conferencia?** 🔹 Propósito Comprenderás cómo conectar con una dirección más profunda en tu vida y descubrir el sentido que puede existir detrás de tus desafíos y decisiones. 🔹 Empoderamiento personal Aprenderás a verte como el protagonista de tu propia historia, recuperando la capacidad de actuar conscientemente ante las circunstancias. 🔹 Fortaleza interior Descubrirás cómo los obstáculos, las pruebas y las crisis pueden convertirse en fuentes de crecimiento, resiliencia y madurez. 🔹 Esperanza y confianza Entenderás que los momentos de incertidumbre y dificultad forman parte natural del proceso de transformación y pueden conducir a una nueva etapa de tu vida. 🔹 Visión de destino Explorarás la idea de que cada persona posee un potencial único por desarrollar y que la vida puede estar invitándonos constantemente a convertirnos en una mejor versión de nosotros mismos. 🔹 Un mapa para tu transformación Te llevarás un modelo práctico para interpretar tu momento vital actual y afrontar el futuro con mayor claridad, consciencia y propósito. **Ponente:** Alejandro Alonso - Coach [https://www.linkedin.com/in/aalonsoas/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aalonsoas/) **Colaboración**: 5€ (costes de sala y organización) **Formato**: Conferencia y preguntas

Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
