Das Ende der Code-Ära: Domain Modeling & Harness Engineering
**Um was geht es dieses mal?**
**Das Ende der Code-Ära: Warum Domain Modeling & Harness Engineering die wichtigsten Skills 2026 sind. - Benjamin Font Pera (codecentric)**
"Die Ära, in der Softwareentwicklung primär durch das Beherrschen von Programmiersprachen und Frameworks definiert wurde, ist vorbei. Wer 2026 noch versucht, über reine Syntax-Kenntnisse Wertschöpfung zu generieren, hat gegen agentische KI-Systeme bereits verloren. Die eigentliche Herausforderung hat sich nach links verschoben: in die präzise Definition von Problemen und die Konstruktion von Leitplanken.
In diesem Talk räume ich mit dem Mythos auf, dass KI uns das Denken abnimmt. Im Gegenteil: Die Verantwortung steigt. Ich stelle das Konzept des Harness Engineering vor – die Kunst, fachliche Anforderungen so in Test- und Evaluationsgerüste zu gießen, dass KI-Systeme darin verlässlich operieren können.
Als Agentic Coding Engineer und AI Coach zeige ich auf, warum Fachlichkeit zur wichtigsten technischen Fähigkeit wird. Wenn die KI Code generiert oder “halluziniert”, ist das tiefe Verständnis der Domäne das einzige verlässliche Werkzeug zur Qualitätssicherung.
Die Kernbotschaften:
Problem-Definition als Hard-Skill: Warum die Fähigkeit, komplexe Fachlichkeit präzise einzufangen, das neue „Clean Code” ist.
Harness Engineering statt Code-Fixing: Wie wir die Kontrolle behalten, indem wir das „Harnisch” (Evals & Guardrails) bauen, statt Zeile für Zeile zu reviewen.
Shift Left zur Domäne: Warum Entwickler:innen 2026 mehr wie System-Architekten und Domänen-Experten denken müssen, um relevant zu bleiben.
Lessons Learned vom AI Coach: Warum die größten Hürden dieser Transformation nicht technischer Natur sind, sondern im Mindset der „Lösungs-Produzenten” liegen.
Dieser Vortrag ist ein Weckruf für alle, die Softwareentwicklung noch als Handwerk am Code verstehen – und ein Leitfaden für diejenigen, die bereit sind, die nächste Ebene der Abstraktion zu besetzen."

From Vibe Coding to Scalable, Reviewable and Performant Engineering
Our sister company FrontValue is organizing a great meetup which might be of interest for you as well! Same location as you're used to. **RSVP via** https://www.meetup.com/frontvalue/events/314972778/
We are back with two great speakers!
💡 First on stage is **Bart Waardenburg**, the creator of the tool **Fallow.** His tool gained significant traction after it was discussed on the web development podcast Syntax.
**Vibe Coding Doesn't Scale: Deterministic Tooling for Agentic Engineering**
*AI Slop Is a Tooling Problem*
Most AI coding fails in the same way. The model writes plausible code, but it has no deterministic way to check whether the change made the codebase better or worse. We compensate with prompts like "make no mistakes", "follow best practices", or "act like a senior engineer".
In his talk, Bart shows where the line runs between AI slop and real agentic engineering. Using Fallow as the case study, he walks through how an agent calls deterministic codebase-quality checks through CLI, MCP, and agent hooks, so engineering standards live in the loop itself instead of in wishful prompts. The agent generates code, inspects the repository, detects dead code, duplication, complexity hotspots, and boundary violations, optionally combines that with runtime evidence, and uses those signals to refactor or self-correct before a human reviews the diff.
The core idea is simple. The biggest productivity gains do not come from telling the model to be smarter. They come from giving it a better harness. For frontend teams, that is the difference between vibe coding and scalable, reviewable engineering.
[https://fallow.tools/](https://fallow.tools/)
💡 After the break, we welcome **Sander van Surksum** on stage. Sander is a web performance specialist who works with global brands to build fast, stable and world-class digital experiences.
**Vibe coding made the web sick. Now it can fix it.**
Since ChatGPT went live in November 2022, the median mobile web page has been getting heavier three times as fast as before. AI didn't invent bloated front-end code; it learned from a "lost decade" of bad patterns and industrialized them.
Sander follows the evidence: the public HTTPArchive data that marks the inflection point, and Alex Russell's *Performance Inequality Gap*, which asks the question most teams never do — **whose device are we actually testing on**? Spoiler: the bill isn't paid by the developer on a MacBook Pro and fibre. It's paid by the user on a €300 Android, 9 Mbps. The same code, two completely different realities.
Today's median page is already bigger than the entire game DOOM.
The talk ends with good news. The same AI that made the mess can help clean it up, once you give it eyes. We'll look at the 2025–2026 tooling (Chrome DevTools MCP, Google's Modern Web Guidance) that finally lets AI agents measure real performance and ship lighter code, and close on the one question every engineer should answer before their next prompt: **who are you building for**?
**📍 Location**
We welcome you to our office in Utrecht: Studio N in the Werkspoorkathedraal. The address is Tractieweg 41. We have plenty of free parking space available. We will have dinner ready for you at 18.00!
**🕔 Agenda**
**18:00** Walk in & food
**18:30** First talk
**19:30** Break
**20:00** Second talk
**21:00** Drinks & Bites
Both talks are in English. RSVP now for an evening of learning and fun.
Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity to learn and connect with our community of frontend developers!

Cross-my-heart trek/ We walk 25 - max 75km for charity / North Dunes - Den Helde
For the first time ever, we, as Outdoors in Utrecht, will be undertaking a walkathon for a good cause
Stichting Hartekind is a non-profit charity organization (and the only one in NL) that provides funding for scientific medical research for heart diseases affecting children (0-15 years)
https://www.hartekind.nl/
We will be hiking the entirety of the north dunes reserve up until Den Helder to raise awareness about the organization & its actions, plus raise funding for the organization
If you want to participate, that's awesome! You can join for the full hike or part of it
Starting point is Castricum train station @ 8:00 in the morning
You can also join of course for part of the hike.
The route & its milestones are
* Start point --> Castricum train station
* Eggmond aan Zee (15km)
* Bergen aan Zee (10 km)
* Camperduin (10 km)
* Petten (10 km)
* Callantsoog (10 km)
* Julianadorp (10 km)
* End point --> Den Helder train station (10 km)
Aim is to be at Den Helder by 23:00 - 23:15 so anyone can take the last train back home to Utrecht/Amsterdam/other
Our pace will be 5-6 km/hour on average. You can pace yourselves with us but, in order to achieve the full route within a day, we can't slow down and do our normal amount of breaks
I recommend you stick with us, and when it gets rough you can drop out completely at a milestone point or continue at your own pace from there. I'll provide a full visual map closer to the event day
if you cannot join, but still want to support, you're more than welcome & appreciated to donate for the cause
Here is where you can donate
Please only donate an amount you feel comfortable with, and don't financially push yourself 🙏
https://supporta.com/pp3m/fvw1d12kg4?utm_source=copy_link&utm_medium=customer&utm_campaign=fundraiser_page_share
Note that this event will not be postponed, unless there's major weather warnings, or train traffic issues. Even if it rains, this event is happening
I hope you join me, even in spirit, in this cause of mine

Immersieve ervaringen: van verhaal tot beleving
*Please note: this meetup will be held in English.*
In this first meet up, you will be shown a set of immersive artistic and design research experiments.
Project Thuis conducts two years of artistic and design research into immersive experiences that place the body at the centre. The central question is: "How can immersive experiences in (semi-)public spaces contribute to a sense of connection, belonging, and 'feeling at home'?
To explore this, a multidisciplinary consortium consisting of [Fillip Studios,](https://www.fillipstudios.com/) [affect lab,](https://www.affectlab.org/) [Introdans,](https://introdans.nl/) [Utrecht University,](https://www.uu.nl/staff/SPonzanesi) and the [Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences,](https://civicinteractiondesign.com/) has embarked on a creative journey together.
Within the context of Project Thuis, this meetup will focus on artistic and design research forms applicable across various disciplines.
**Programme:**
16:00 - 16:15: Opening
16:15 - 17:15: Interactive session
17:15 - 17:30: The role of the maker in the future of immersive experiences
17:30 - 18:00: Networking and drinks (including presence of [CIIIC](https://us2.mailchimp.com/mctx/clicks?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ciiic.nl%2F&xid=f4ced03a90&uid=2313462&iid=e62065ab18&pool=cts&v=2&c=1780312609&h=0b99fb0b79b5fe3d2625a4891bea9d8bc6ef045db3b8ee6ffe56d6cfc6e501c4))
Within the context of Project Thuis, this meetup will focus on experiments that you, as a maker, can use to conduct artistic and design research across various disciplines.
*[This event marks the first in a series for Project Thuis (Home). Ontwerp Platform Arnhem has been invited to organise the meetups. We strongly endorse the importance of initiatives like this, and are highly committed to connecting designers with these themes and consortia](https://www.ciiic.nl/)***[.](https://www.ciiic.nl/)**
Disconnect & Connect in Nature
I’m putting together a small hike trip weekend in Hoorneboegse heide in Hilversum, the idea is to come with a few people who want to step out of their routine, spend time in nature, and meet others in a relaxed way.
This is not a tour or a structured retreat.
The idea is simple step out of your comfort and everyday life to reconnect with nature and with each other. We will
– explore the beautiful nature
– share a few moments together
– and keep things easy and natural
There will be time together (walks and sunset).
Group size will be small (around 2- 4 people), to keep it comfortable and personal.
This Meetup is to connect people who are interested in real and human connection
If this resonates, feel free to join and I’ll share more details 🙂
