What we’re about
Let's learn to code together.
We are training people to become coding friendly. Learning the mind-set is more important than the particular coding language.
We are practicing collaborative activities like Study Jams, Coding Clubs, Code Wars, DevFests, etc.
And we provide hand holding and office hours when you need it the most - just ask / let us know how we can help.

Speakers confirmed:
Hugo Huang presenting a 30 min talk "Confronting AI Security with Open Source".
Short teaser: "AI systems introduce new security challenges. Our recent survey reveals that 43% of enterprises are very or extremely concerned about their ability to protect AI systems, and 60% report having only basic or no secure controls over their machine learning/AI infrastructure. To address these critical issues, Canonical has developed Charmed OpenSearch. This solution leverages automation, encryption, observable clusters, and integrates with Ubuntu’s security tools, enabling organizations to deploy, maintain, and secure OpenSearch more effectively in both cloud and on-premises environments. This approach helps enterprises tackle AI security, shadow AI, and secure OpenSearch deployments, ultimately improving readiness and mitigating risks."
Ongoing 2025 call for speakers is available for your submission. Feel free to add as many talks as interested. These talks will be considered for our community meetups and can lead to your speakers engagement with our annual DevFests and Hackathons.
