Virtual Show & Tell: "Practical AI for Developers: Building Useful AI app"

We invite you to join our Virtual Show & Tell February 19th, 6:00-8 pm for the Hudson Valley's Tech Community Meetup, an open meeting for anyone in our community or is interested in technology. We'll explore the latest AI trends and tech career development opportunities, followed by networking with everyone.

Speakers confirmed: John Krupavaram Pole Bhakthavatsalam will give a talk about
Agentic Engineering with Google Antigravity: Building Angular + Java

"We are entering the era of ""Agentic Engineering,"" where the developer's role shifts from writing every line of code to orchestrating AI agents. In this session, I will demonstrate a live workflow using Google Antigravity (Google’s new agent-first IDE) and the Gemini CLI to build a full-stack application from scratch.
Moving beyond simple ""toy"" examples, we will tackle a real-world enterprise stack: an Angular frontend connected to a Java (Spring Boot) backend. Attendees will learn how to use Antigravity’s ""Mission Control"" to manage autonomous agents that plan, code, and fix errors across multiple files simultaneously. I will also show how to use the Gemini CLI to ""chat with your terminal"" for rapid scaffolding and debugging. Whether you are a frontend dev or a backend veteran, you will leave with a practical roadmap for integrating AI agents into your daily workflow to 10x your productivity." """Antigravity"" and ""Agentic workflows"" are buzzwords right now, but most demos only show simple Python scripts. I want to show our local community how these tools work for real application development with a standard industry stack (Java & Angular).:
