About us
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.
This initiative is sponsored by OpenHub: https://openhubproject.com/
The purpose of this meetup group: Continuous co-learning to achieve project-oriented goals.
You should join if you are local and consider yourself as a coder / developer, or want to learn technology to the level when you can use it for projects or for getting a job.
Please feel out this form to let us know, what technology you are interested in learning and what you are willing to teach/share.
Please vote free first topics you are interested to learn next as level 2 or 3. http://doodle.com/poll/ubzgq3s48s5k6re5
Levels:
1 - Introduction.
2 - Design concepts and/or step-by-step learning of technology.
3 - Advanced topics, requires knowing the technology when coming to the class.

Speakers confirmed:
- Chaitanya Gunupudi, . senior cloud platform engineer and AI research practitioner at the University of Maryland, will talk about Building Secure DevSecOps Architectures for AI and LLM Workloads. AI models and LLM-powered features are shipping faster than ever, but most teams are still bolting security on at the end of the pipeline. This session walks through how to design a practical DevSecOps architecture specifically for AI workloads: from secure data pipelines and model training to hardened inference endpoints and continuous monitoring in production. We will cover how to integrate security checks into CI/CD and MLOps, protect against common AI threats (data leakage, model poisoning, and prompt abuse), and build an audit-ready workflow that satisfies both engineering and compliance needs. Attendees will leave with a concrete reference architecture, example controls, and a checklist they can adapt for their own stack whether they’re deploying fine‑tuned models, using managed LLM APIs, or running in a hybrid cloud environment "
