Brainberg

Software Engineering Events in Europe

This is the widest category on Brainberg, because software engineering itself spans a huge range of events: language user groups (Python, Rust, Go, TypeScript, Kotlin, Elixir, Ruby, Zig), framework communities (React, Svelte, Next.js, Vue, Laravel, Django, NixOS), backend architecture tracks, testing and QA tracks (ISTQB certification courses, mutation testing, test-automation workshops), refactoring and DDD circles, hackathons, and the long tail of "thoughtful engineering" meetups that don't fit neatly under any specific stack.

The community layer is broader than just language meetups. Women-in-Tech groups are active in most major cities (IT Women Talks, SheTech, Women in Tech Glasgow, REAL TALK and more), CoderDojo chapters run youth coding sessions across Europe, and the after-work/tech-social rhythm (Afterwork Drinks, Tech Mixers, Code Review evenings) fills out the week between structured meetups. GOTO Copenhagen, International JavaScript Conference Munich, Code BEAM Stockholm, Heapcon Belgrade, and Devoxx anchor the conference side.

Every major European tech city runs a weekly rotation of these. Berlin's Rust and Go scenes are deep; Amsterdam and London have strong functional programming communities; Paris runs some of the best TypeScript and full-stack events on the continent; the Nordic cities punch above their weight on language design and systems programming. Dublin, Barcelona, Lisbon, Zurich, and Munich each sustain multiple active user groups. Because "software engineering" is so broad, this page is most useful when you combine it with a location filter. Brainberg aggregates all of this, so the full schedule for a given city shows up in one view instead of scattered across separate platforms.

66. Hackergarten Stuttgart

Stuttgart, 🇩🇪 Germany

🇬🇧👇
🇩🇪 Jeden ersten Dienstag im Monat veranstalten wir im codecentric-Büro in Stuttgart mit dem Hackergarten einen unterhaltsamen und offenen Workspace, bei dem wir gemeinsam in einer geselligen Runde an verschiedenen Open-Source-Projekten arbeiten.

Wir freuen uns darauf, euch in lockerer Atmosphäre mit ausreichend Essen und Verpflegung begrüßen zu dürfen und gemeinsam an tollen Projekte zu arbeiten und unser Wissen auszutauschen. Ihr benötigt lediglich einen eigenen Laptop zum Arbeiten.

Was ist ein Hackergarten?
Ein Hackergarten ist eine Mischung aus Softwarewerkstatt, Labor, Klassenzimmer, Spielplatz, geselliger Runde und Studio. Ziel ist es, Neues zu schaffen, Bestehendes zu erweitern, Fehler zu beheben, Dokumentationen oder Tutorials zu schreiben. Wir wollen etwas erarbeiten, was andere nutzen können – indem das Ergebnis am Ende als Patch, Contribution oder auf ähnlichem Wege einem Open-Source-Projekt zugeführt wird. Man lernt neue Leute kennen, bekommt Einblick in Projekte oder Technologien, kann Erfahrungen und Wissen austauschen. Dazu ist jeder willkommen. Egal, ob du studierst oder schon lange dabei bist – jeder kann etwas beitragen, sofern er bereit ist, einen Laptop und Zeit mitzubringen. Bringt Eure eigenen Ideen oder auch Probleme mit, und gemeinsam kann daraus etwas wachsen.

🇬🇧
We host the Hackergarten at the codecentric office in Stuttgart, an entertaining and open workspace where we work together on various open source projects in a relaxed setting.

You can bring your own projects, which we will be happy to support you with and which we can discuss and work on together.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in a relaxed atmosphere with enough food and drinks to work together on great projects and share our knowledge. All you need is your own laptop to work with.

What is a Hackergarten?

Hackergarten is a crafter's workshop, classroom, a laboratory, a social circle, a writing group, a playground, and an artist's studio. Our goal is to create something that others can use; whether it be working software, improved documentation, or better educational materials. Our intent is to end each meeting with a patch or similar contribution submitted to an open and public project. Membership is open to anyone willing to contribute their time.

August Meetup: Interactive Audio

Berlin, 🇩🇪 Germany

On the 4th of August we will host the next iteration of our monthly Audio Developer Meetup, where Robyn Pacetti from Protagonists! will be sharing their journey of creating a new kind of interactive audio experience. For our short talk, Fernando Garcia will present their latest research on detecting AI-generated content in hybrid music mixtures.

As always, there will be a chance to network over drinks and pizza. Anyone interested in Audio development is welcome!

Doors open at 18:00, talks start at 18:15.

Please note: Attendance is strictly limited to people who have RSVP'd.

Long talk details

A journey to create interactive, imaginary audio worlds - Robyn Pacetti
What if we could explore imaginary worlds without looking at a screen? Explore environments, engage with characters, be the protagonist — interact with an imaginary world you don't just listen to, but move through and shape through your choices. The founder of Protagonists! talks about her journey creating a new kind of interactive audio experience: the vision, the goals, how it works, what they've built so far, some of the challenges, and what doors this new kind of experience might open — for people and for the audio space.

About the speaker

Robyn Pacetti is the Founder of Protagonists!, an early-stage bootstrapped venture actively building a new kind of interactive audio entertainment: imaginary worlds you step into and shape through your choices — ScreenFree, no graphics. It's a return to the oldest way humans have told stories — by voice, with the listener imagining the world into being — but with agency, so you don't just listen, you act. After 25 years in the games industry (Amazon, Ubisoft, Wooga), Robyn now works at the frontier of interactive entertainment.

Short talk details

How Much AI Is in This Track? Detecting AI-Generated Content in Hybrid Music Mixtures - Fernando Garcia
AI-generated music is reshaping the music industry. By early 2026, it made up around 44% of daily uploads on Deezer, and studies suggest most listeners can't tell it apart from human-made recordings. This has driven a major research effort on automatic detection, almost all of which asks one binary question: is this track AI or human? State-of-the-art detectors now hit over 99% accuracy on that question.

But that isn't how AI actually shows up in modern production. Producers use it as a modular tool: an AI drum loop combined with a synthetic bassline and a human singer's voice. The result is hybrid material that's neither fully human nor fully AI, exactly the case the binary framing can't describe.

This talk covers Fernando's work reframing detection for that reality. Instead of a yes/no label, they treat it as a regression problem: estimating a continuous AI energy ratio, the fraction of a track's acoustic energy that comes from AI stems. Fernando will explain why these detectors work at all (they exploit subtle spectral fingerprints left by neural audio codecs), and show how a model trained to estimate that ratio reveals patterns a binary detector misses entirely.

The broader takeaway: near-perfect binary accuracy is not evidence that a detector is ready for realistic, mixed-content music. As AI becomes a normal part of production, the question worth asking isn't whether a track is AI, but how much.

About the speaker

Fernando Garcia de la Cruz is ML Engineer at seeqnc, working on AI detection. His interests range across generative models, music information retrieval, and real-time audio software, with a focus on building practical tools for musicians and technologists.
He holds an MSc in Sound and Music Computing from the Music Technology Group (MTG), Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, and a BSc in Electronics Engineering from Instituto Politécnico Nacional in Mexico City. He began his career as a software and data engineer in consultancy before moving into audio and music research, working on real-time audio tools and libraries at Dolby Laboratories, AI-generated music detection at BMAT, audio plugins at the MTG with the Essentia library, and most recently as a research intern at Sony CSL Paris. He has also spoken at the Audio Developer Conference and contributes to the Sound of AI community.

18:45 Building Multi-Step Form Experiences in React: Onboarding, Surveys, Checkout & More
Speaker: Martí Serra Molina, Creator of Formity

In this talk, I'll introduce Formity, an open-source React library that treats multi-step forms as programmable flows instead of static sequences of steps. We'll explore how describing the user journey declaratively makes complex experiences easier to build, reason about, test, and evolve. Through practical examples, you'll see how to build highly flexible form experiences while keeping your codebase clean, maintainable, and scalable.
