Software Engineering Events in Brno
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.
This page narrows the Brno calendar to Software Engineering events. It's a subset of Czechia's wider tech-event schedule, useful when you want something specific to go to in the city this month.

Three Incidents Later: Why We Turned Virtual Threads Off
Brno, 🇨🇿 Czechia
Speaker: Jakub Coufal - Software Engineer at SentinelOne (https://www.linkedin.com/in/coufalja/)
Abstract:
Virtual threads arrived in Spring with a compelling pitch: flip a Spring Boot property, get massive concurrency for free. Several teams took that literally and enabled them across all services by default. This talk is what happened next.

Jakub also added when we chatted about this:
Subtitle could be:
A production post-mortem on Spring Boot, Java 21, and the "free lunch" that it wasn't
Which is really compelling. Virtual threads are a great technology, but the limitations are still there. This will definitely be a very interesting talk, and I personally look forward to the discussion it will spark.
We will also stream this online at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4siuc7lF0YY! If you plan to attend online, you don't need to register here since we're using this information to order food. This is also a tiny push for you to come in person!
See you there!
Grafana & Friends Brno
Brno, 🇨🇿 Czechia
Summer is over, and we are ready for the next Grafana & Friends meetup in Brno!
📅 October 26, 2026, 18:00 – 21:00
📍 OpenSSL office, Kotlářská 989/51a, Brno
🗒️ Grafana & Friends is a worldwide community of meetups bringing together people who are passionate about observability, open source, and building great developer tooling. You can expect a mix of technical talks, real-world stories, and plenty of time to grab a drink and connect with fellow engineers. Some events feature deep-dive presentations, others are more casual — but they all share the same spirit: learn something new, meet great people, and have fun.
Our meetups are open to everyone — seasoned SREs, platform engineers, developers, students, or anyone curious about how modern monitoring and observability work. No prior Grafana experience needed. Just bring yourself and your curiosity!
