RSVP now for an evening of learning and fun! The meetup will be at the Startup House \| by Lumia \- Stella\-Klein\-Löw\-Weg 8\, 1020 Vienna \- with food\, drinks\, snacks & more\. **Agenda** 17:30 Walk in 18:00 Food 18:30 Talk 1 *Making significant software architecture decisions* 19:30 Break 19:45 Talk 2 *Device Management the DevOps Way* 20:45 Drinks & *Raffle Prices* & Fun **Raffle Prices:** 1. Claude MAX Plan 20x for 2 months 2. DJI Mini 4K Drone 3. Flipper Zero **First talk**: **"Making significant software architecture decisions"** by Bert Jan Schrijver (OpenValue) Software architecture represents the significant design decisions that shape a system, where significant is measured by the cost of change. At its core, architectural decision-making is about balancing trade-offs to align technical solutions with broader requirements. But how do you approach a trade-off analysis? How do you choose between different solutions, frameworks, tools, languages, or cloud providers? Which factors should guide your decisions beyond just technical fit? And how do you make sure you’re not overlooking non-technical aspects like team expertise, long-term supportability, and hiring feasibility? In this session, he’ll share a structured approach to making informed, high-impact architecture decisions. We’ll break down technical, organizational, financial and other trade-offs and explore how to evaluate and balance competing concerns. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to make better architectural decisions in real-world projects. **About Bert Jan** Bert Jan is CTO at OpenValue and focuses on Java, AI, software architecture, Continuous Delivery and DevOps. Bert Jan is a Java Champion, JavaOne Rock Star speaker, Duke's Choice Award winner and leads NLJUG, the Dutch Java User Group. He loves to share his experience by speaking at conferences, writing for the Dutch Java magazine and helping out Devoxx4Kids with teaching kids how to code. **Second talk**: **"Device Management the DevOps Way"** by Erik Auer and Dimitrij Klesev (Whizus) In today’s hybrid work environment, traditional device management is often manual and opaque. This talk presents a DevOps approach to MDM using Infrastructure as Code and automation for speed, transparency, and GDPR compliance. We’ll show how Terraform defines device configurations and policies as code, while GitHub Workflows automate the full lifecycle — from validation and testing through approval to deployment. Emphasis is placed on a solid approval process where changes are reviewed via Terraform plans, with apply triggered only after the full pipeline and approvals. Learn practical patterns to make device management faster, safer, and fully auditable — turning MDM into a reliable, governed platform capability. **About Dimitrij and Erik** Dimi is Tech Lead at WhizUs with several years of experience working in the Kubernetes ecosystem and the Cloud Native domain.

[VIBE CODE WEDNESDAY] is a weekly gathering of people, hosted by weXelerate, where we are building things with AI — and we'd love for you to join us. Here's the idea: everyone has a mile-long to-do list and a bunch of ideas they never get around to. Things that don't get scheduled don't get done. So we made it a thing. Every Wednesday at weXelerate in Vienna, we block off the time and vibe code together. Think of it like your weekly gym session — except instead of lifting weights, you're finally building that thing you've been putting off for months. Two reasons people keep coming back: you actually get stuff done, and you're not alone in the room and meet new people. Someone next to you just found a tool you've never heard of or you get honest feedback on your idea. That kind of casual knowledge sharing is hard to find — and it happens naturally here. From pros to newbies everyone is welcome. No experience required. No pressure. Just show up and build. Wednesdays @ weXelerate, Praterstraße 1, 1020 Vienna

Dear friends, the loess-face on the Ungerberg near Weiden/Neusiedlersee is a marvelous place to watch: bee-eaters, jackdaws, starlings and maybe, rabbits on the same wall. There are two options afterwards, we can decide on the spot 1. We can go downhill, to the Zitzmannsdorfer Wiesen, a protected meadow in the national park: Neusiedlersee. There are flowering already, so I hope, different kinds of Iris and with a certain probability, we can see stilts, lapwings or other rare birds. Please note: this option means 10 km by feet, minimum. 2. Or we can return the same way with a stop in one of the numerous Heurigen on the way to the railway station. It’s the shorter way. The dryness in this season indicates that we go as soon as possible, because the flowering period of many plants is shorter than usual. Meeting point is **Hauptbahnhof: 9:00** We go by train with Destination **Pamhagen** **Departure: 9:09** please look at the timetabe for the right platform, because ist net yet indicated. **Buy a ticket to Weiden/See, go and return.** I hope to see you again at this great hiking occasion with best regards ADI Liebe Freunde, Die Löss-Wand am Ungerberg bei Weiden/Neusiedler See ist einer der faszinierendsen Plätze um folgende Arten zu beobachten: Bienenfresser, Dohlen, Stare und manchmal auch Kaninchen. Sie alle haben in der selben Wand ihre Nisthöhlen, die man aus nächster Nähe beobachten kann. Danach gibt es zwei Optionen, die wir vor Ort noch wählen können 1. Wir können den Berg runter gehen, zu den Zitzmannsdorfer Wiesen, die ein Teil des Nationalpark Neusiedlersee sind. Wir werden dabei ca. 10 km zu Fuss gehen, wenn das ein Problem ist, bitte nicht diese Variante wählen. 2. Oder den selben Weg zurück zum Bahnhof und im Ort einkehren, was wesentlich weniger Wegstrecke ist ist. In den Zitzmannsdorfer Wiesen blühen, so hoffe ich, verschiedene, seltene Arten Iris und es besteht die Wahrscheinlichkeit, Rotschenkel, Stelzenläufer und Kiebitze zu sehen. Die Trockenheit in diesem Jahr legt nahe, dass wir diesen Ausflug so bald wie möglich machen, weil viele Blumen früher und zugleich kürzer blühen, als sonst. Wir fahren mit dem Zug Richtung **Pamhagen, vom Hauptbahnhof** ab und treffen uns dort um **9:00.** **Abfahrt: 9:09**, bitte auf der Anzeigetafel nachsehen, auf welchem Gleis. Das ist im Fahrplan noch nicht angegeben. Bitte kauft ein **Ticket nach Weiden/See mit Rückfahrt.** Ich freue mich auf möglichst viele Interessierte. Liebe Grüße Adi

Please note: The main part of this session will be held in **German**. **Raus aus dem Kopf, rein in den Moment!** 🎭 Hast du das Gefühl, oft festzustecken oder alles perfekt machen zu wollen? Improvisationstheater ist das perfekte Training gegen Procrastination und Perfektionismus. Hier lernst du, dem ersten Impuls zu vertrauen und mit dem zu arbeiten, was gerade da ist. **Outdoor Vitality:** Training by the water is pure mindfulness. Nature helps calm your nervous system and instantly stops overthinking. Fresh air, open space, and improv—the perfect combo to clear your mind and boost your well-being. **Bonus für Körper & Geist:** Das Training am Wasser ist Achtsamkeit pur. Die Natur hilft dir, das Nervensystem zu beruhigen und das Gedankenkarussell sofort zu stoppen. Frische Luft, weite Sicht und Impro – die beste Kombi, um mentalen Ballast einfach abzuwerfen. **Was dich erwartet:** In einer wertschätzenden Atmosphäre nutzen wir einfache Spiele und Bewegung, um: * 🌱 **"Ja, genau!" zu sagen:** Impulse annehmen statt sie zu zerdenken. * ✨ **Fehler zu feiern:** Perfektionismus ablegen und spielerisch "scheitern". * 🧠 **Präsenz zu stärken:** Ganz im Hier und Jetzt reagieren. **Der Ablauf:** Wir starten mit 1,5 Stunden lockerer Gruppenspiele. Danach folgen sehr kurze, lustige Impro-Szenen. **Wichtig:** Du machst nur das, worauf du Lust hast.

No acting experience needed - just bring your presence and curiosity!

Across the world, different cultures have the same word for the same sacred thing. In the Arab world, it's ***sufra*** — the spread that holds the room. Across Spain and Latin America, ***sobremesa*** — the hours no one wants to leave the table. In Turkey and the Eastern Mediterranean, ***keyif*** — unhurried pleasure (the Greeks call it *kefi*, same ancient root). Across Italy and the Lusophone world — Portugal, Brazil, Mozambique — ***convivio*** — living together through the meal. In Southern Africa, ***ubuntu*** — "I am because we are." In Okinawa, ***moai*** — the lifelong circle that eats, walks, and grows old together. Across Malaysia and Indonesia, ***makan-makan*** — the easy, communal feast. In the Sikh tradition across South Asia, ***langar*** — where every person eats as equal, seated on the same floor. Eight cultures. Eight words. One truth: **the long table, the slow meal, the people who start as strangers and end as family.** The Blue Zones research — Dan Buettner's work on the five places where humans live longest and healthiest (Okinawa, Sardinia, Ikaria, Nicoya, Loma Linda) — keeps pointing back to this. Not the recipe. The table. The presence. The time. So let's do it. **What:** One long table. Food we cook together. Hours of real conversation — emotions, relationships, philosophy, and yes, politics — not as sides, but as the questions we all carry. Here, what usually divides a room becomes the ground we meet on. **What we leave behind:** Phones. All digital devices. None of the cultures we're honouring tonight needed them at the table — and the Blue Zones research is unambiguous: real longevity, real connection, real nervous-system repair happens only where we are not being scrolled into a loop. **What we bring:** Ourselves. Our culture. Whatever we're carrying. Whatever we want to share. **Open to everyone:** Whether your grandmother cooked in Beirut, Madrid, Istanbul, Naples, Johannesburg, Okinawa, Jakarta, or Amritsar — or nowhere at all — you belong at this table. The whole point is that nobody's culture runs the room. Every tradition sits beside every other. **Before the event:** A poll goes out, so we choose the menu together. **Now:** I'm looking for the right location — outdoors if possible, somewhere near Vienna. A garden, a terrace, a piece of land with trees and sky. If you have a spot or know one, message me. This is ours to build. Come as you are. Stay as long as it takes. *A small ritual before the ritual: a short call beforehand, 10 to 15 minutes. Not to screen you — to meet you. Every culture at this table starts a meal with a greeting. Ours starts here.* — Tom

We’ve partnered with our friends from Angular Vienna to bring you an amazing evening of talks, networking, and spring energy! **Angular & MRDS** Angular is an enterprise-grade framework for building modular frontends. It seamlessly integrates with the complex communication patterns and asynchronous data streams typical of modern distributed and reactive architectures. Some of you may remember our past event about a **Micro Frontend Plugin System** built with Angular. If you are curious to hear what insights have emerged since then, this is the perfect opportunity to follow up! **RSVP** Please make sure to **RSVP on the [Angular Vienna](https://www.meetup.com/angular-vienna/events/314162066) page** to secure your spot! **The Highlights** 🗣️ Expert speakers 🎓 Knowledge sharing on the latest in Angular 🎫 Raffles with cool prizes 👥 Meet old and new friends from the community 🍻 Free drinks 🍕 Free food 🎉 Open-end networking ✔️ Just RSVP! **Location:** LEAN-Coders, Hainburger Straße 33 **Agenda:** 18:00 – Warm-up 18:15 – Meetup Intro 18:30 – Dominic Bachmann 19:15 – Pizza Break (30 mins) 19:45 – Robert Maier-Silldorff 20:30 – Break (15 mins) 20:45 – Raffle 21:00 - Outro & Open-End **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 🗣️🗣️🗣️ Talks 🗣️🗣️🗣️ \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **Robert Maier\-Silldorff \- iteratec \| [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-maier-silldorff-71464ab2/)** **Microfrontend-Plugin-System: Architecture, Challenges, and Lessons Learned** This talk shares the story behind a microfrontend-based plugin system we built for a large enterprise customer. I’ll cover why we chose a plugin architecture, how the system is structured, key challenges we faced and how the solution has evolved over time—ending with lessons learned for building extensible frontend platforms. **Dominic Bachmann \- Vontobel \| [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominic-bachmann-645267319/)** **From Typos to Type Safety — Building a Typed Router for Angular** Route enums, path constant objects, flat route trees to avoid nesting complexity — Angular developers have invented all kinds of workarounds to bring some safety to navigation. But they all share the same problem: a second source of truth that you maintain by hand. In this talk, I'll share how I built angular-typed-router, a drop-in replacement that infers every valid path directly from your route configuration. You'll see the developer experience in action — full autocomplete, compile-time validation — and learn how interface augmentation, template literal types, and recursive conditionals make it work at zero runtime cost. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-❤️🤝❤️ 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.

**History** The history of [Blendon Woods Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/blendon-woods/) began long before its 1951 opening, rooted in a landscape of rugged ridges and deep ravines that made the land unsuitable for traditional farming. In 1945, a report proposing a metropolitan park system for Franklin County specifically highlighted these cliffs of Bedford Shale as some of the "wildest land in the vicinity". Following this recommendation, the recently formed park district purchased the first 229 acres in early 1949. Because the terrain was so uneven, developers had to cut a mile-and-a-half-long roadway through dense woods just to bring in heavy equipment. This initial preservation effort ensured that the mature second-growth hardwood forests remained largely untouched by the urban expansion spreading toward Westerville. Opening day arrived on Labor Day, September 3, 1951, marking Blendon Woods as the second park in the Columbus and Franklin County Metro Parks system. The final push to open was a frantic race; the State Highway Department only finished the primary gravel access road four days before the gates opened. Early staff members, consisting of just four full-time employees, had to hand-dig pit toilets and learn construction skills on the fly to build the first picnic shelters. Despite the dusty conditions and limited facilities, the park was an immediate success, drawing massive crowds from across Central Ohio. By the end of the 1950s, annual visitation had already climbed to over 190,000 people. As the surrounding suburbs grew in the 1960s, the park faced severe overcrowding that threatened its natural habitats. In response, Franklin County voters passed the first Metro Parks levy in 1960, providing the funds necessary for a decade of steady expansion. During this era, the park nearly doubled in size, growing from 264 acres to over 570 acres by 1968. Planners also addressed a critical water shortage by collaborating with the U.S. Soil and Conservation Service to build a lake in 1964. This body of water originally served as a temporary reservoir before its role shifted toward conservation and wildlife support. The 1970s marked a transition toward the specialized wildlife and educational focus for which the park is known today. In 1971, the Walden Waterfowl Refuge was established around the 11-acre Thoreau Lake, creating a sanctuary that remains restricted to provide a quiet habitat for migratory birds. A formal nature center was also developed during this period, expanding on the guided Sunday walks that had been a park staple since the early 1950s. The park’s famous "Monarch Mansion" also became a prominent fixture, starting a long tradition of raising and releasing thousands of monarch butterflies each September. These initiatives cemented the park’s reputation as a premier destination for birders and nature enthusiasts. In more recent decades, Blendon Woods has continued to modernize while maintaining its wilderness character. The 10-acre Natural Play Area was added in 2017, encouraging kids to explore the ravines and woods off-trail. This was followed by the opening of a $1.5 million inclusive playground in April 2025, designed to accommodate children of all physical abilities. The nature center also underwent major renovations to include immersive, three-dimensional exhibits and a new butterfly house. Today, the park encompasses 653 acres, preserving a unique geologic and biological corridor amidst the bustling Westerville and Northeast Columbus area. **Map of the Park** Here is a map of [Blendon Woods](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/BLN_map_Inclusive-Playground-and-Butterfly-Trail_May-2025_1980px.png). **Summary** For this event, we will hike the Lake View, Hickory Ridge, Ripple Rock, Overlook, Brookside, and Sugarbush Trails. This sounds like a lot, but it will really be only a little over five miles. Blendon Woods has a few hills here and there, but it's not one of the more strenuous metro parks. **Where We'll Meet** We'll meet just in front of the Nature Center. This is about a mile into the park from the main entrance. You have to go past the Ranger Station and the Shadblow Reservable Area to get to it, so don't stop too early at the Ranger Station and get it confused with the Nature Center. **After the Hike** Afterward, we will head over to [Forbidden Root Restaurant & Brewery](https://forbiddenroot.com/restaurants/columbus-ohio/) at Easton for [drinks](https://forbiddenroot.com/restaurants/columbus-ohio/#dinner-menu) and [food](https://forbiddenroot.com/wp-content/uploads/Cbus-Food.pdf). We should be there by 5 if you can't make the hike and just want to join us for drinks. The brewery's actual address is [4080 Worth Ave, Columbus, OH 43219](https://www.google.com/maps/place/4080+Worth+Ave,+Columbus,+OH+43219/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x88388a86d10b6619:0x4d42b470a5cf11d3?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111); however, I recommend pointing your GPS to the [Worth Garage](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Worth+Garage/@40.0542293,-82.9137962,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x88388b4df6082825:0x17582f0eccd9dda1!8m2!3d40.0542293!4d-82.9137962!16s%2Fg%2F11rzfvvv8b?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDQxNS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) across the street. Parking in this garage is free as long as you're not on the first floor, and it is literally right next to the brewery.
