Some outdoor activities can also be practiced indoors, and this is why we love to go indoor bouldering whenever we can! Indoor bouldering is a perfect place to start or improve your level safely and with almost no pre-requirements (except for the shoes and maybe some chalk). Whether it’s your first time or you are a bouldering veteran, tag along to have some fun together, meet new people and maybe learn something new. We are no instructors but we’re happy to introduce you to this activity and to share our knowledge with you 🙂 We meet at Boulderlounge Schlieren at 6:30 pm, in the restaurant area. The entry fee for bouldering is CHF 25 and shoe rental is an additional CHF 7. Looking forward to seeing you!

Lets meet and talk about Symfony, PHP and web technologies and everything else! We are welcome to the Liip Office at Limmatstrasse 183. Liip kindly sponsors drinks and snacks. Doors open at 18:30 19:00 Talks Long Talk **Yanick Witschi: Loupe - A search engine with just PHP and SQLite** *Ever wished full-text search in PHP was fast, local, and ridiculously simple? No containers to set up - just PHP and SQLite? In this talk I’ll take you behind the scenes of Loupe - how it works, why it’s blazing fast, and how you can add powerful search to your app in minutes!* *Why would anyone be crazy enough to implement full-text search in PHP? This talk is the story of that “stupid idea” - and how it turned into Loupe.* *I’ll start with the real-world problem that sparked the project: when existing search solutions felt too heavy or too expensive for my use case. From there, we’ll walk through the decision to build a search engine from scratch - what went wrong, what worked, and what I’ve learnt along the way.* *Step by step, I’ll show how Loupe was built incrementally: from a tiny index, to fast queries, to surprisingly powerful features. We’ll dive into the heart of typo-tolerant search and unpack the algorithmic tricks that make it very fast, even on large datasets.* *Whether you love search, PHP, algorithms - or bad ideas that somehow work - this talk is for you.* Short Talk **David Buchmann: Using postgis in postgres with the swiss buildings registry** *Postgis is an extension for the postgres database to handle geographical data. This is not actually as complicated to use as it sounds - it gives you support for coordinates as column type, and allows to query for areas. I will explain the basics and show some examples how we use this in the Swiss Buildings API project.* 20:00 Drinks and chat with the Symfony community. Would you like to present something? Please contact david@liip.ch with your talk idea. This is a great opportunity to get first experiences in public speaking. We would love to have some first-time speakers present something. Talks can be about an aspect of Symfony, a project you did that involved Symfony, or some general web topic that could be of interest to developers working with Symfony. If you feel you need some support in preparing your talk, please reach out, there are people with experience in public speaking that will be happy to help. Talks can be held in English or German. Please let us know if you plan to come.

Welcome to our meetup! In our meetups we openly discuss and share our experiences related to running an Amazon FBA business, Amazon KDP business or other online business out of Switzerland. There's no fixed agenda or presentations/speakers. Everyone gets the chance to shortly introduce his/her experience with online business so far and to discuss any issues he/she is facing at the moment. Our meetups are valuable both for people just starting out as well as for experienced entrepreneurs. Next to providing useful practical information, I believe our meetups are just as valuable for the chance to meet similar minded, motivated entrepreneurs. It's great for your own mindset to meet other people who also think out of the 9-to-5 box. Furthermore, our meetups provide a good networking opportunity: we already have various collaborations between members of our group resulting from our meetups. We will meet in the lobby of the Motel One hotel (Stockerstrasse 61, corner of Brandschenkestrasse; after you entered the motel, you'll find the lobby at the far left). If you like to have a drink, please get it at the bar before coming to the lobby, so we can start on time at 7pm. Meetups are held in English, unless all participants understand German. Please only sign up if you're actually planning on coming. Looking forward to meeting you! \*\*\* no hidden agenda, no one trying to sell you his services, 100% entrepreneurs helping entrepreneurs \*\*\*

**5th February - DotNet Zurich @ Isolutions** *Join us in person at Isolutions!!* This event will happen at Isolutions, The Circle. **Agenda:** * 17:45 Reception open & networking moment - note that if you come earlier we might ask you to help with the setup ;) * 18:00 Intro Hosts & .NET Zurich * 18:15 – 19:05 How to securely implement MCP with OAuth in .NET * 19:15 – 20:05 Swiss Identity in .NET: A Practical Guide to EIAM, aGov, SwissID, Entra ID—and Social Logins * 20:15: Pizza & drinks The event is held in English. **More detail & full excerpt of the talks & bios:** * **Title: How to securely implement MCP with OAuth in .NET** * **Abstract:** In this session, we’ll explore Model-Context-Protocol (MCP). We’ll begin with a high-level overview of MCP, illustrating its core concepts through a practical implementation using Semantic Kernel in .NET. From there, we’ll shift focus to security. We’ll examine common vulnerabilities in MCP-based architectures and demonstrate how to securely implement it using OAuth. Whether you're new to MCP or looking to deepen your expertise, this session will equip you with both the conceptual understanding and hands-on techniques to build secure AI solutions. * **Speakers:** * **Cédric Mendelin** As a seasoned full-stack developer with 8 years of experience, Cédric is fuelled by a passion for .NET, Azure and especially AI! He is dedicated to crafting valuable and secure solutions for end users generating true business value. Located in Basel, Switzerland. * **Raffael Nussbaumer** Raffael is an experienced .NET developer and Azure enthusiast. His experience in developing robust applications with solid craftsmanship is complemented by strong interest in modern DevOps practices and security. * **Damien Bowden** Damien is a web developer, architect and a Microsoft MVP for Visual Studio Development Technologies, Sonar Navigator who loves to learn. He contributes regularly to open-source projects on GitHub and Microsoft ASP.NET Core docs. He runs a very popular blog which focuses on ASP.NET Core, application security, Entra and Angular. * **Title: Swiss Identity in .NET: A Practical Guide to EIAM, aGov, SwissID, Entra ID—and Social Logins** * **Abstract** Modern Swiss apps rarely authenticate just one way. In this fast paced, concept-level session, we compare how to plug EIAM, aGOV, E-ID, SwissID, Microsoft Entra ID, and social providers (Google, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook) into software systems using OpenID Connect/OAuth 2.0 (and where SAML still fits). You’ll see side by side integration patterns and what each IDP means for user experience, assurance levels, consent, data residency, and compliance. We’ll finish with a simple decision matrix—when to choose which IDP, so you can ship secure sign in flows that match your audience, not the other way around. * **Speakers bio:** * **Thomas Aebi** Tom is a Solution Architect with a strong focus on Microsoft technologies. He has joined the party from the early days of .Net and later with Azure, too. He always strives to build a smart and lean solution consisting of already available services, complemented with code as needed. He loves to inspire others and share his knowledge. * **Peter Schnidrig** Peter has over a decade of .Net experience and is a Jack-of-all-trade developer, which jokingly calls himself a Software Archaeologist. He is always on the lookout for new opportunities to implement Blazor applications. * **Marc Rufer** Marc is a passionate software engineer, living in Switzerland and interested in DevOps, DevSecOps, application security, web development and Azure. His favourite tools, technologies and standards are GitHub, Azure DevOps, ASP.NET Core, Git, Terraform, PowerShell, OIDC, SQL, EF Core, REST. * **Andres Bohren** Andres works as a Senior Microsoft Cloud Engineer/Architect for midsize to large Enterprises at isolutions in Switzerland. He has a special focus on M365 including Identity, Messaging, Communication, Security and PowerShell but also some Azure Technologies. He is Co-Organisator of the Microsoft 365 Community Schweiz Meetup group and was Speaker at several other Meetups or Conferences. He likes good Food, his Bike and nice Dive spots all over the World.

[MOVIE DESCRIPTION BELOW] *Survivors of the apocalypse send a convict in a small submarine to explore a desolate moon that's an ocean of blood.* \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ **PLEASE SEE GROUP BIO FOR FULL FAQ. Meetup only allows a certain amount of characters when posting events from a mobile device and out FAQ is longer than that limit. A condensed version is posted below here** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ First-time attendees: below are some Frequently Asked Questions about events for your consideration: * **What is involved in this type of event? (_Group Watch & Socialize Event)** * We typically arrive before the movie, maybe chat and catch up with folks a bit, watch the movie in the theater, then afterwards have a more extended chat with everyone who saw the movie. * **Do I have to chat before the movie?** * Nope! Totally understandable if you'd rather just watch first so you can have something in common to discuss afterwards. * **Will people approach me/talk to me?** * Not a guarantee as it depends on who is hosting, but a good host or other group members will try to at least say hi to members after the movie and may make an effort to include newer faces in the conversation in some way. Please feel free to jump into the conversation as you feel comfortable and understand this is done with good intent :) We are happy to have you! * **How will I know who is the host or where people are gathering to talk about the movie?** * This depends on each host, but good practice is for the host to indicate a notable item of clothing they are wearing for other members to look out for. But generally we gather in a loose circle in the theater lobby or outside the theater to talk, so if you recognize the host or other group members - that's the spot we've decided on! Just kind of depends on the feel of the group where we gather. * **What is with posting the seat numbers?** * A good practice we've found is to post our seat numbers when we have ordered tickets for a movie. This is just another way for members of our group to find each other as it might not be immediately obvious who is here as part of the group event: some events are at public movie theaters, after all. You are not by any means obligated to post your seat number if you do not feel comfortable doing so, just something we've found that works nicely for encouraging some socialization. * **Will there be food?** * General guideline: if the movie starts at 7ish pm or later, you might wanna have dinner first or plan on buying movie snacks. Restaurant kitchens tend to close around 9-10pm. We sometimes do go to restaurants after movies as a group, but moreso bars whose kitchens may or may not be open. Plus, kind of bad manners for a group to descend upon a bar when the kitchen is closing is 10 minutes lol. Bars are just convenient social places, there is zero pressure to drink but there just aren't many places open late when we may leave movies. There is potential to order or provide food for group events, but it should not be expected unless stated in the event description. * **How do I stay in contact with the group after the movie?** * We have another app we use for discussion because Meetup is somewhat cumbersome to use for casual conversation. The app we use is called Discord. The link is posted below: * Link: https://discord.gg/4r7QxzmSvH * [Place link here] \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ * **Can I create events as a member?** * Initially, no but this group is open to members suggesting events or becoming part of the Event Organizers over time. We don't want to open the opportunity for everybody initially to create events because that kind of role has some responsibility towards it. There are certain permissions granted to that role that not every member should have. However, if a member has a proven track record of treating every group member with due respect, and a willingness to plan events: they can become and Event Organizer and create their own events. Please reach out to leadership if this sounds like something that would interest you. * **Can I donate to the group?** * Absolutely! See group bio
