Hey Zürich, we are not slowing down! Angular Zürich is back with another evening of exciting talks exploring the future of Angular, modern developer experience, and where the framework is heading next. And for the first time ever, we’ll have three speakers sharing their insights, ideas, and real-world experiences with the community. **Talks:** *Even moar Angular skills for agentic development* *by Tomas Trajan* AI agents are quickly becoming part of the Angular development workflow - generating components, refactoring code, writing tests, and even orchestrating full features. But getting reliable results requires more than good prompts. In this talk, I’ll share the Angular patterns, architecture decisions, and tooling techniques that make agentic development actually productive at scale. You’ll see how strong typing, standalone APIs, signals, and clear project structure dramatically improve AI-generated code quality, and learn practical workflows for collaborating with coding agents without sacrificing maintainability or developer control. \-\-\- *From Typos to Type Safety — Building a Typed Router for Angular* *by Dominic Bachmann* 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. \-\-\- *Angular 22: The Great Simplification* *by Mateusz Halada* Angular has spent the last few releases removing complexity piece by piece - and Angular 22 takes that vision even further. In this talk, we’ll explore how the framework is evolving toward a leaner, more intuitive developer experience with simpler APIs, stronger defaults, and less boilerplate across everyday application development. You’ll see what’s new, what’s been streamlined, and how modern Angular patterns around signals, control flow, routing, and reactivity fit together into a much more cohesive mental model. By the end, you’ll understand not just the new features, but the bigger direction Angular is heading in. **Agenda** * 18:00 - 18:15 – **Intro** * 18:15 - 18:45 – **Tomas Trajan** \- Even moar Angular skills for agentic development * 18:50 - 19:30 **Dominic Bachmann** \- From Typos to Type Safety \- Building a Typed Router for Angular * 19:35 - 20:05 – **Mateusz Halada** \- Angular 22: The Great Simplification * 20:05 - 21:00 – **Networking**

Welcome to the Winterthur Badminton Meetup! 🏸👊😉🍻 We’re an international group created for badminton fans in and around Winterthur. Open to Expats and Swiss folks who want to train and socialise with fellow ‘badmintonists’. Or perhaps you’d like to learn the sport and meet new people? Whether doing it for fun or fitness, the idea is to enjoy and have a great (kickass) midweek. And everyone is welcome to join us for a postgame drink or two! See yah! 😊 Important: We ask everyone to respect others who wish to play. That means dropping out if you won’t make it to the game by updating your RSVP. Keep in mind: RSVPs close at 21:00 two days before the event to give others enough time to plan. Anyone on the RSVP list who did not show up at the event is considered a "no-show". No-shows will still have to pay the shared cost of the court and shuttles. We keep track of no-shows and deprioritise them in future games. Please try your best to pay on the same day by Twint or in cash. With Twint, write in the comment the date and your name for reference. Cost will be around 12-20 CHF, depending on the amount of players joining and if we have to rent 1 or 2 courts. Note: If it's your first time joining, please send me a message for more details and to confirm your spot in the game. Otherwise, regular players will be given priority. Cheers, Elias

Hendrik Klug is joining us to give a talk on the work he has been doing at Synthara to enable their in-memory compute IP using an MLIR-based stack. As usual there will be pizza, snacks, beer, and soft drinks after the event for participants, sponsored by Prof. Zhendong Su and the Advanced Software Technologies (AST) Lab at ETH Zurich. **Abstract:** Licensing custom accelerators as IP to chip makers comes with all sorts of challenges for the compiler. In particular, compute-in-memory hardware moves computation into the memory hierarchy, which requires a different kind of scheduling than conventional compilation pipelines usually perform. Synthara's computeRAM is an in-memory compute IP that is integrated into a wide range of targets, from smartwatches to datacenter accelerators, and each chip maker brings their own toolchain. So computeRAM has to come with a compilation pipeline flexible enough to plug into whichever platform compiler the chip maker is developing, schedule the memory hierarchy and compute capabilities exposed by the hardware, and stay maintainable as the IP evolves. MLIR's dialect and transformation model lets us integrate into the customer's compilation pipeline rather than replace it, and the same pipeline can be retargeted as the integration surface changes from one chip maker to the next. In this talk we walk through the MLIR pipeline we have built around computeRAM at Synthara: the hardware and the platforms it integrates into, the lowering pipeline to both LLVM and EmitC, and the optimizations we do for computeRAM. Throughout, we share what we learned: the good, the bad and the ugly of what's available upstream. **Location:** The event is taking place in the room G51 in the CAB building of ETH Zurich at the Zentrum campus. Enter from Universitätstrasse 6.

AI is changing the way we develop software. Mattia’s talk takes a fresh look at **Type-Driven Development** (TDD), and how types facilitate not only the work of human developers but also **LLM reasoning**. The talk with be hands-on with code examples and open discussions Agenda: * What is Type-Driven Development * An overview of F#’s type system * How TDD facilitates human developers with AI tools * LLM Tooling with types * LLM reasoning with types * Compositionality and reasoning traces Mattia is a data scientist fighting a losing battle: replacing Python with languages featuring richer type systems. As the co-founder of Entropy42, a Zurich-based startup, he specializes in the verification of ontologies and mathematical optimization programs. There, Mattia leverages type systems and provers to sharpen the performance of specialized small language models. Mattia will use F#, but his talk does not require any prior experience with the language.

### **Poolside Chats: Design, Research, Engineering & UX** Join us for a relaxed summer gathering at one of Zurich’s local Badis. This is a casual community meetup for designers, researchers developers, product managers, and other curious builders who enjoy thoughtful conversations, sharing ideas, and spending time outdoors. We’ll gather by the pool to discuss topics such as: * Passion projects * Design, technology, and product thinking * Ethical and responsible uses of AI * Creativity, learning, and experimentation * Personal philosophies and ways of working * Interesting questions about the future The format is intentionally informal. Feel free to join a conversation, listen, ask questions, or share something you’ve been exploring. Need a break? Take a swim, cool off, and come back with a fresh perspective or a new idea to discuss. This is not a recruiting event, job fair, or transactional networking meetup. While meaningful professional relationships may naturally develop over time, the purpose of the gathering is not to find clients, hire employees, or look for your next job. Instead, the goal is to create a welcoming space for genuine conversation, intellectual curiosity, and human connection. Bring your curiosity, a towel, and whatever ideas have been occupying your mind lately. \*Come to exchange ideas, not business cards.\*

This is one of our most popular events, which has been going on for decades. Anyone is welcome to join us! No registration or membership is required to join us in this friendly atmosphere to meet new people and catch up with old friends - a great way to build a network within the greater community.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. 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. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

We are bringing Microsoft Build sessions to Columbus Ohio! The Central Ohio Azure Meetup and Central Ohio .NET Developer's Group (CONDG) are coming together to bring some of the labs and breakouts from Microsoft Build to your backyard. In this free, 1 day event, you are going to Build stuff with us! And yes, there will be free food. Please RSVP via [Microsoft Build //localhost:columbus | Microsoft Reactor](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/reactor/events/27247/).

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
