After not having the the monthly meetup of march, we are back on **14 april** at **Enrise**! Pascal Baljet will join us to talk about Laravel and Inertia. js! Enrise is easily reachable by car (located right next to the A1 exit "Amersfoort Noord") as well as by public transport (there is a bus stop 100m walking from the office). If you are coming by car, you can park your car on the roof of the building. Also good to know; **Enrise will be sponsoring Pizza for this meetup** 🍕! 18:30 - Pizza delivery (around this time) & doors open 19:30 - **Modern front-end without API: Laravel + Inertia. js** \- Pascal Baljet 20:30 - Social **Modern front-end without API: Laravel + Inertia. js** Inertia.js lets you build modern single-page applications using your favorite backend and frontend frameworks, without needing to write an API. You use server-side routing and controllers, but render frontend components instead of server-rendered templates. In this talk, I’ll show how features like forms with real-time validation, deferred props, prefetching, infinite scroll, and polling work. All within a single repository.

**Um was geht es dieses mal?** Dieses Mal findet das Meetup in Kooperation mit dem **n8n Meetup im Ruhrgebiet** statt und wird wie immer bei uns bei codecentric in Dortmund ausgerichtet. Beim 3. n8n Meetup im Ruhrgebiet geht es wie immer darum, die Möglichkeiten von n8n besser kennenzulernen, Erfahrungen zu teilen, voneinander zu lernen und sich mit anderen auszutauschen. Dieses Mal steht das Meetup zusätzlich im Zeichen von Vibe Coding und schnellem Prototyping. Im Fokus steht, wie sich n8n als Backend für Automatisierungen, Schnittstellen und Logik im Hintergrund mit Vibe Coding für die schnelle Entwicklung von Frontends verbinden lässt, um in kurzer Zeit funktionierende Prototypen, interne Tools und erste MVPs umzusetzen. Anhand konkreter Beispiele und Live-Demos zeigen wir, wie aus einer Idee schnell etwas Nutzbares entsteht. **Hybrides Setup!** Wir freuen uns, euch bei uns in den Räumen der codecentric AG in Dortmund willkommen zu heißen. Vor Ort versorgen wir euch mit Snacks und Getränken und freuen uns gleichzeitig über interessante Diskussionen und einen guten Austausch. Für alle, die es nicht zu uns ins Office schaffen, werden wir das Meetup Hybrid durchführen. Der Stream beginnt ca. 10 Minuten später, damit wir vor Ort ausreichend Möglichkeit für persönliches Kennenlernen haben. Den Live-Stream findet ihr auf dem [YouTube-Channel](https://www.youtube.com/@codecentricAG) der codecentric AG. **Wichtig - Absage bitte rechtzeitig:** Wir bestellen das Essen bereits 3 Tage vor dem Meetup. Falls ihr doch verhindert sein solltet, bitten wir euch um eine rechtzeitige Absage. Das ist wichtig, damit wir nicht unnötig Essen verschwenden müssen.

This is a facilitated creative session — not a class. You'll receive a starting prompt, access to paint, collage materials, texture, and colour, then two and a half hours to follow whatever feels right. No instruction. No judgement. No wrong moves. I designed this for women who spend their days in logic, deadlines, or high performance — and who have quietly stopped making things just for the joy of it. This session is permission to start again. We work in a small, intentional group. Music plays. Tea is ready. What you make is entirely yours. ### ✅ What's Included * All creative materials (paint, canvas cards, collage, pastels, mixed media) * A starting prompt to spark your session * Curated ambient music and calm space * Tea, coffee, and light bites * Your finished work to take home * Optional group sharing at the end. *** ### 🎒 What to Bring * Yourself and an open mind * Comfortable clothes you don't mind getting paint on * Nothing else — everything is provided ### 📋 Activity Itinerary | Step | Title | What happens | | ---- | ----- | ------------ | | 1 | Welcome & settle in | Tea, introductions, no pressure | | 2 | Meet your materials | Explore what's on the table | | 3 | Receive your prompt | One sentence to start from serving as a gateway to the experience | | 4 | Make freely | 60 min of creative flow time | | 5 | Reflect & share | Optional — share or just explore what others created | | 6 | Wrap up | Take your work, leave lighter |

Semi in honor of March being International Women's Month Columbus libraries: [https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3454709](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3454709) Location: SOW Plated Menu: [https://www.sowplated.com/menu-brunch/](https://www.sowplated.com/menu-brunch/) Book summary: In 2006 Julia Lerner is living in Moscow, a recent university graduate in computer science, when she's recruited by Russia's largest intelligence agency. By 2018 she's in Silicon Valley as COO of Tangerine, one of America's most famous technology companies. In between her executive management (make offers to promising startups, crush them and copy their features if they refuse); self promotion (check out her latest op-ed in the WSJ, on Work/Life Balance 2.0); and work in gender equality (transfer the most annoying females from her team), she funnels intelligence back to the motherland. But now Russia's asking for more, and Julia's getting nervous. Alice Lu is a first generation Chinese American whose parents are delighted she's working at Tangerine (such a successful company!). Too bad she's slogging away in the lower echelons, recently dumped, and now sharing her expensive two-bedroom apartment with her cousin Cheri, a perennial "founder's girlfriend". One afternoon, while performing a server check, Alice discovers some unusual activity, and now she's burdened with two powerful but distressing suspicions: Tangerine's privacy settings aren't as rigorous as the company claims they are, and the person abusing this loophole might be Julia Lerner herself. The closer Alice gets to Julia, the more Julia questions her own loyalties. Russia may have placed her in the Valley, but she's the one who built her career; isn't she entitled to protect the lifestyle she's earned?

**Our April novel is: *The Hong Kong Widow* by Kristen Loesch** **This month’s novel blends gothic atmosphere with historical fiction and chilling horror, set against the haunting backdrop of China. The book is 368 pages in print and 10 hours and 42 minutes on audiobook.** In 1950s Hong Kong, Mei is a young refugee of the Chinese Communist revolution struggling to put her past in Shanghai behind her. When she receives a shocking invitation—to take part in a competition in one of the city's most notorious haunted houses, pitting six spirit mediums against one another in a series of six séances over six nights, until a single winner emerges—she has every reason to refuse. Except that the hostess, a former Shanghainese silent film star, is none other than the wife of the man who once destroyed Mei’s entire life. It is promised the winner will receive a fortune, but there is only one prize Mei wants: revenge. Decades later, the final night of that competition has become an infamous urban legend: The police were called to the scene of a brutal massacre but found no evidence, dismissing it as a collective hallucination. Mei knows what she saw, but now someone else is convinced they know what she did. She must uncover the truth about the last night she ever spent in that house—even if the ghosts of her past are waiting for her there. . . .
