Expect deep dives, practical insights, and plenty of time to connect with the community. **What's on the agenda:** 🗣️ 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 - [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.

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.

Hey Community, **Important:** Please register via the external link (not only on Meetup), as seats are limited due to room capacity. ⇒ **[Link to register for the meetup](https://techtalk.at/answering-questions-with-stories-with-alistair-cockburn/)**[!](https://techtalk.at/answering-questions-with-stories-with-alistair-cockburn/) What happens when one of the co-authors of the Agile Manifesto doesn’t give a talk — but answers your questions with stories? Join us for an interactive, Q&A-driven evening with **[Alistair Cockburn](https://training.techtalk.at/trainer-in/dr-alistair-cockburn/)**. Instead of slides or prepared lectures, Alistair responds to your questions with real stories from decades of working in complex environments — often detailed, sometimes unexpected, occasionally humorous — but always insightful. Stories convey more than opinions. They reveal context, trade-offs, and real decisions. So bring your questions: * About agile beyond frameworks * About architecture and incremental development * About leadership and collaboration * About AI and modern delivery * Or anything else you’ve always wanted to ask In this session, Alistair’s only rule is simple: He answers with a story — not a theory. **Agenda** 🕡 **18:00** – Doors open at TechTalk 🕕 **18:15** – Intro & "*Answering Questions with Stories"* 🕗 **19:30** – 🍕Food & 🍻Drinks sponsored by [TechTalk](https://techtalk.at/) 🎉 If you’re curious, reflective, or just enjoy thoughtful discussions — this evening is for you.

Hi everyone, On **Sunday, May 24** 2026, I'm planning a spring hike from Mitterbach train station to the top of Gemeindealpe and walk down along a scenic route to Erlaufsee. This hike is all about walking, wide views, and enjoying the landscape together with plenty of time for conversation, short breaks, and simply being outdoors. **Highlights** 🏞️ **Gemeindealpe** – alpine views 🌄**Erlaufsee** **Hike Details** **Distance:** approx. 15 km **Elevation:** approx. 850m ascent **Walking time:** approx. 6-7 hours **Difficulty:** **MEDIUM**. While technically mostly easy it's a proper mountain after all... so you should be fit enough and have some hiking experience. Since this is a group hike the route might have to be adapted for safety reasons. **[https://www.bahn-zum-berg.at/ybbstaler-alpen/gemeindealpe-erlaufsee/](https://www.bahn-zum-berg.at/ybbstaler-alpen/gemeindealpe-erlaufsee/)** **Meeting Point & Trave** **Meeting Time**: 06:50 at **Westbahnho**f on the top floor near the ticket machines. **Please buy your own tickets before boarding the train** and be on time since we'll take the train we'll take the train CJX5 leaving 07:18 and arrive in St. Pölten at 07:54 where we change to the train leaving 08:05 from St. Pölten with expected arrival in Mitterbach around 09:57 Trains from Mitterbach back to St. Pölten leave every hour **What to Expect** We’ll walk together at a **relaxed, social pace**, staying as a group throughout the day This is **not a race or performance hike as long** as you have basic fitness for this hike — the focus is on shared experience, conversation, and enjoying the landscape at an unhurried rhythm We’ll take regular short breaks whenever useful 🥪 We don’t plan to stop at huts or restaurants during the hike, so please bring your own snacks and drinks (approx. **2 liters of water**) 🌧️ Weather can be changeable, so **basic rain protection is recommended** 🥾 Please wear **sturdy hiking shoes**.

**Was ein erfolgreiches Sport-Innovations-Ökosystem braucht – und wie KI den Moment gerade beschleunigt** Runtastic. Eversports. myClubs. Österreich hat bewiesen, dass aus dem Sport heraus Weltklasse-Unternehmen entstehen können. Aber es sind Einzelfälle geblieben – noch kein vernetztes Ökosystem dahinter, das gezielt mehr davon hervorbringt. Was braucht es, damit das nächste große Ding nicht Zufall ist? Welche Verbindungen fehlen zwischen Sportorganisationen, Gründer:innen, Forschung und Kapital? Und was verändert KI gerade – in der Trainingssteuerung, der Sportmedizin, im Fan-Erlebnis – und wer in Österreich nutzt diesen Moment? Diese Fragen wollen wir gemeinsam stellen – beim **Sports Innovation Breakfast** für Sportbegeisterte, Gründer:innen, Investor:innen und Innovationstreiber:innen. **Speaker Line-up:** * [Horst Nussbaumer, OLY](https://www.linkedin.com/in/horst-nussbaumer-oly-b31b87133/), Präsident [Österreichisches Olympisches Comité](https://www.linkedin.com/company/oeoc/) * [Michaela Huber](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaela-huber-1b5557150/), Vizepräsidentin [SPORTUNION Österreich](https://www.linkedin.com/company/sportunion-oesterreich/) * [Stefan Litzenberger](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stefan-litzenberger-23389027/), Studiengangsleiter Sports Technology, [FH Technikum Wien](https://www.linkedin.com/company/uas-technikum-wien/) * [Klaus Müller](https://www.linkedin.com/in/klausmuller/), Gründer [Wictory](https://www.linkedin.com/company/wictory-ai/) * [Thomas Berger](https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-berger-6131a3189/), Geschäftsführer [LAOLA1](https://www.linkedin.com/company/laola1/) * [Conny Wilczynski](https://www.linkedin.com/in/conny-wilczynski-67757498/), Gründer [Sportbox](https://www.linkedin.com/company/sportbox-gmbh/) Veranstaltet von **weXelerate** in Kooperation mit [Innovation Salzburg](https://www.innovation-salzburg.at/). **Agenda:** 08:30 AM Check-In mit Kaffee 09:00 AM Welcome & Intro Ernst Novak (Innovation Salzburg) 09:10 AM - 09:30 AM Impuls Interview Horst Nussbaumer (ÖOC Präsident) 09:30 AM Panel-Diskussion Michaela Huber (VP Sportunion), Klaus Müller (Gründer Wictory.ai), Thomas Berger (GF LAOLA1), Stefan Litzenberger (FH Technikum) 10:30 AM - 11:00 AM Netzwerken

## The Portrait League – Paid Studio Sessions for Serious Hobby Photographers This is a structured portrait community — not a casual meetup. The Portrait League is a recurring studio (location) gathering for photographers who want to improve their portrait and headshot work in a focused, constructive environment. Each session will focus on a specific studio concept: – Classic 1-light headshots – Dramatic low-key portraits – High-key commercial looks – Editorial portrait setups – Creative color lighting Model included. We don’t rush for quantity. We work for quality. The goal is simple: Refine technique. Improve consistency. Develop a recognizable portrait style. This is for photographers who: • Want structured growth • Value critique over ego • Take their craft seriously • Prefer collaboration over chaos Spots are limited to maintain quality and productive energy. Investment Today: €15 Duration: approx. 2–3 hours If you want random shooting, this isn’t it. If you want to level up your portrait game, join the league. ***

On Saturday, May 23 at 12:00, there will be a mosaic workshop 🧚🏻‍♂️ What to expect at the workshop: • We’ll talk about the history of mosaic art, Gaudí, his trencadís technique, and get inspired by contemporary mosaic works. • We’ll create our own mosaics using different materials: broken ceramics, tiles, stained glass, and other textured details. Address: Krugerstraße 10, Wine Bar “Vinum 1010” Price: €25 The price includes a glass of delicious Austrian wine 🍷 Duration: 2 hours Come join us — we’ll create, connect, get inspired, and piece together beauty from tiny fragments ✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mosaic_vienna/

**TBA**

**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** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
