Test Driven Development

Ciao! L'appuntamento di aprile è per mercoledì 8 alle 19 con un altro interessante talk in presenza, sempre al [Politecnico di Milano](https://www.google.com/maps/place/45%C2%B028'41.3%22N+9%C2%B013'43.6%22E/@45.478127,9.228763,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d45.478127!4d9.228763?entry=ttu)! Questo mese testiamo un nuovo formato, quello del panel. Per questo motivo, questo mese 4 speaker diversi discuteranno e condivideranno il modo in cui usano l’AI al lavoro. L’AI per molte persone è uno degli alleati più importanti sul posto di lavoro: bisogna però saperla usare con criterio ed etica per ottenerne il meglio. Nello specifico, ecco chi sono i nostri speaker e di cosa parleranno: \- Dennis Ploetner: best practices per sfruttare l'AI nello sviluppo software \- Matteo Enna: come gestire i team non tecnici che desiderano approcciarsi al vibe coding in azienda \- Giovanni Invernizzi: come sfruttare l'AI per un'ottimizzazione avanzata delle web performance \- Stefano Minoia: come utilizzare l'AI per rendere un sito più accessibile Sai cosa c’è di bellissimo? Il fatto che, se vorrai, potrai partecipare anche tu al giro di tavolo condividendo (anche da remoto se ci segui in streaming) il modo in cui anche tu hai integrato l’AI nel tuo flusso di lavoro. Porta i tuoi successi, ma anche i tuoi dubbi e i vostri fallimenti, perchè alla fine community significa crescere l’un l’altro. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Saremo in diretta streaming Non puoi partecipare di persona? Noi non ti giudicheremo! :) Se vuoi, puoi seguirci anche in diretta streaming su YouTube. Il link sarà visibile solo una volta che avrai fatto la tua iscrizione all'evento. Durante la diretta, se vorrai, potrai intervenire anche tu usando una webcam e un microfono per dire la tua: basterà usare il link che verrà fornito via chat. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- I prossimi appuntamenti della community WordPress Checkout Summit La prima conferenza indipendente dal vivo per i professionisti di WooCommerce. 23-24 aprile a Palermo [https://checkoutsummit.com/](https://checkoutsummit.com/) WordCamp Torino 8-9 maggio a Torino [https://torino.wordcamp.org/2026/](https://torino.wordcamp.org/2026/) WordCamp Europe 4-6 giugno a Cracovia [https://europe.wordcamp.org/2026/](https://europe.wordcamp.org/2026/) \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- In breve, ecco come sarà organizzata la serata: 19:00 Benvenuto + networking 19:20 Panel (di circa 50 minuti) 20:10 Domande e risposte 20:30 Fine; Chi vuole può continuare il networking in un bar o pizzeria vicino al luogo dell’evento. All’inizio dell’incontro faremo il conteggio per prenotare: per non creare disguidi conferma la presenza solo se sei sicuro di venire. Networking significa che ci sarà tempo per chiacchierare con chi partecipa e fare amicizia. Potresti trovare una persona interessante, un futuro cliente, un futuro fornitore o un nuovo partner di lavoro, chi può dirlo? Non riesci a venire, o devi dare la tua disdetta? Nessun rancore, sarà per la prossima. Ti chiediamo solo di farci sapere 24 ore prima così - liberiamo il tuo posto per altre persone. Vuoi essere speaker?

L'8 aprile in Talent Garden Calabiana ti invitiamo a un’esperienza immersiva guidata da **Andrea Romoli**, Facilitatore LEGO®️ SERIOUS PLAY ®️, con un workshop dove useremo le mani per pensare. ### Cos'è il LEGO® Serious Play®? È una metodologia di facilitazione internazionale nata per migliorare il pensiero critico e la risoluzione di problemi complessi. Invece di usare slide e grafici, utilizzeremo i famosi mattoncini LEGO per costruire **modelli tridimensionali** che rappresentano idee, processi e visioni. Le mani diventano il motore della mente: costruendo fisicamente, riusciamo a far emergere soluzioni e riflessioni che spesso restano nascoste nei processi logici tradizionali. Cosa faremo durante il workshop? Il workshop si svilupperà attraverso tre sfide di costruzione e condivisione: * **Sfida 1:** Analizzeremo le esperienze positive e i successi ottenuti grazie all’AI. Cosa sta già funzionando? * **Sfida 2:** Daremo forma alle criticità, ai dubbi etici e alle difficoltà tecniche incontrate lungo il percorso. * **Sfida 3:** Progetteremo insieme le potenziali innovazioni e gli sviluppi futuri che l'AI può offrire al nostro ecosistema. Ogni partecipante costruirà il proprio modello, lo descriverà al gruppo e parteciperà a una riflessione collettiva per mappare il futuro tecnologico che ci aspetta. **Perché partecipare?** Uscirai dal workshop con una visione più chiara, nuove connessioni professionali e la consapevolezza di come la tecnologia possa essere guidata dall'ingegno umano. Ti ricordiamo che l'evento è su prenotazione. Qualora non dovessi più partecipare, ti chiediamo cortesemente di procedere con la cancellazione della tua iscrizione per permettere ad altri di partecipare.

**You’ve been living in Italy for months… maybe even years…** **but you still don’t really *live* in Italian.** You understand. You try. But when it’s time to speak, something holds you back. Not enough practice. Too much pressure. Or simply… no space that feels safe enough. I know this, because I’ve lived it. Learning the local language is what finally made me feel at home. That’s why I created this. **Welcome to The Village — a space to *experience* Italian, not just learn it.** This is for you if: – you want to actually speak, not just listen – you’re willing to make mistakes and grow from them – you value connection, presence and a positive group energy – you’re ready to step out of your comfort zone (gently, but consistently) This is **not** a traditional class. And it’s not for passive learners. In The Village, we: – practice real-life conversations – use role play, games and embodied exercises – support each other (no judgment, no pressure) – build confidence session after session The goal is simple: to help you feel more at home in Italy — in your body, and in your voice. I guide the space to make sure everyone speaks, feels included, and grows. **Small group. Real connection. Consistent practice.** If this resonates, you’re very welcome. Payment: 5 2 hrs sessions: 50 euros, drop in sesson 12 euros

Step into the very first evening at Kookie’s LAB Studio and be part of its beginning. This two-hour creative experience is designed as a relaxed Friday night ritual: slow down, get your hands messy, and shape something beautiful from start to finish. Guided step by step, you will create two decorative pieces: a small vase an hexagon plate You’ll design them yourself, choose colors and details, and bring both pieces home with you at the end of the workshop. No prior experience is needed — just curiosity and the desire to create. The atmosphere is intimate, welcoming, and intentionally unhurried: a space to experiment, connect, and enjoy the process as much as the result. This is not just a workshop. It’s the first pour, the first shapes, the very first night of the studio. ✨ All materials included ✨ Duration: 2 hours ✨ Language: English **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls. We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

**PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT NOTES:** 1. The dates for this series are simply placeholders at the moment. We are working on our 2026 schedule, and adjustments are forthcoming. 2. Each class in this series has an attendance fee. 3. Each class, from BOTH a sign-up and fee perspective, is a separate entity. 4. As the Etch toolset evolves, so too will the class outline below. **Introduction:** Our Site Building with Etch class provides detailed instructions on the philosophy of the Etch development framework, as well as in-depth, hands-on instruction on using the Etch environment and associated tools. Anyone familiar with Kevin Geary and the Digital Gravy set of products will tell you that they offer ground-breaking approaches to professional WordPress site development. As we write this, the Etch toolset and environment are rapidly taking shape, with weekly quantum leaps forward in WordPress development methodologies. As early investors in the Etch product offering and its development process, we are actively testing and evaluating the toolset as it takes shape. We are beyond excited to see how WordPress site development is being modernized, and can't wait to bring this course set to you. It will be a paradigm shift in page and site development within WordPress, as well as moving your development mindset light-years forward. Join us as we explore Etch and dive deep into development approaches that will genuinely elevate your craft as a website developer and agency provider. Scalable, responsive, compliant websites are now within easy reach, and Etch provides both the platform and toolset to take you there. **The breakdown of the 10-class series is as follows:** * Class 01 - TBD * Class 02 - TBD * Class 03 - TBD * Class 04 - TBD * Class 05 - TBD * Class 06 - TBD * Class 07 - TBD * Class 08 - TBD * Class 09 - TBD * Class 10 - TBD Throughout the class sessions listed above, we cover the following key areas of web development with Etch: * **Introduction to Etch Interface:** * Familiarization with the toolset's layout and understanding how to navigate and interact with its various components. * **Visual Site Building:** * Techniques for creating layouts using Etch's interface, incorporating sections, divs, containers, and elements to build semantically correct page structures. * **Styling and Design:** * Utilizing Etch's styling approach to customize elements, apply global CSS classes for consistent design, and leverage features like Flexbox and CSS Grid for responsive layouts. * **Dynamic Content and Custom Fields:** * Integrating dynamic content from custom post types and custom field plugins (like ACF, Meta Box, and even built-in fields) to build data-driven websites. * **Component Building:** * Creating and managing reusable components for headers, footers, post type layouts, and other site-wide elements. * **Performance Optimization:** * Understanding how Etch contributes to fast-loading websites and implementing performance best practices. * **Advanced Features:** * Depending on the class level, it might delve into advanced topics such as conditional logic, interactions, and custom code integration to enable more complex functionality. The series aims to equip participants with the skills to efficiently build, customize, and maintain WordPress websites using Etch, catering to both beginners and experienced web developers alike.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!
