Second Meetup in April OMG!!! Let's gooo! We have some amazing speakers, and of course, pizza and drinks will be available after the event. ────────── **18:30: Welcome** Grab a drink and a seat until everybody arrives! **18:50 Intro by Host Neciu Dan** **19:00 Front-end testing at Preply: Shifting left towards component testing with Storybook** Speakers: Lukasz Rados and Dominika Szukala, both Senior Frontend Engineers at Preply Preply invested a lot into E2E testing in the past, but this approach wasn’t scaling well for us. With the advent of the company rebrand and the new engineering excellence culture, Preply needed a new approach to front-end testing. We (Dominika and Lukasz) embarked on a project to apply the new Engineering Excellence principles to front-end testing, providing the tools and fixing the current context to steer the whole company toward component tests. **19:25** **AI vs. App Engineer. Claude vs. Stack Overflow,** **or How an Animation Task Can Change the Perception of Your Work** Speaker: Arthur Repin, App Engineer at Preply I had a task, that initially looked like a routine change. Normally, I would handle it the usual way: check the documentation, browse Stack Overflow, try a few naive solutions, iterate, and get it done. But not this time. This is a story about how a wrong estimate can actually pay off later by saving time on future tasks. It’s a journey through misjudged effort, shifting approaches, unexpected struggles, and the lessons learned along the way. It also includes a deep technical dive into React Native animations, exploring complex animation patterns and why achieving smooth performance, especially on Android, is still a challenge. This talk is for engineers who want a deeper understanding of React Native animations and a reminder of why engineers still matter in the age of AI. **19:50: Drinks and networking!** Do you want to talk at this meetup? Reach out to Dan Neciu [on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/neciudan/) And please help us spread the news and grow the community: **20:55 Meetup finished** **(FOR EARLY ACCESS: WE ALWAYS POST FIRST ON SOCIAL MEDIA)** [Twitter(X)](https://x.com/ReactJsBCN) [BlueSky](https://bsky.app/profile/reactbarcelona.bsky.social) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/reactjs-barcelona/) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/reactjs_barcelona/) ────────── **Sponsors:** Preply We power people’s progress.

No slides. No speaker. No agenda. Just developers talking shop over a cold one. This is an informal gathering for engineers, founders, and builders who are deep in the agentic coding trenches — using tools like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, OpenCode, or rolling their own agent pipelines. Come swap what's actually working, what blew up in production, and what you're excited about right now. We'll be at Barcelona, and the format is simple: show up, grab a drink, and share what you know. Bring a laptop if you want to show something, but it's not required. WhatsApp Group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GVS0bHMPIzID3Ch9lt6YsU?mode=gi_t **What we talk about (but not limited to):** *Agentic coding workflows and tooling - Prompt engineering & context engineering in practice *Multi-agent architectures and orchestration - AI-native product building *What's broken in the ecosystem and how you're working around it **Who should come:** Developers, technical founders, and AI engineers who build with (or on top of) LLMs. All levels welcome — senior devs with war stories and curious beginners both make the conversation better. **Format:** Open conversation, round-table style. Everyone teaches, everyone learns.

**A room full of teams and one comedian standing in your way.** • Wednesdays • 8:00 PM • At The Clubhouse: Laietana 6 • In English • Free • Consumption Required • Win a 50 Euro Bar Tab! Pub Quiz League is not your average pub quiz. It’s a fast-paced, game-show-style showdown where your team isn’t just competing against other tables — you’re competing against a comedian. Hosted by Veronica Peralta and Warcos, Pub Quiz League blends sharp trivia with unpredictable comedy. It’s smart without being smug, competitive without being hostile, and structured just enough to keep the madness under control. Bring a full squad and play strategically, or come solo and join a team on the night. It’s social, welcoming, and built to get the whole room involved — whether you're answering questions, cheering from your table, or volunteering for the spotlight.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
