Software Engineering Events in Dublin 12

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 Dublin 12 calendar to Software Engineering events. It's a subset of Ireland's wider tech-event schedule, useful when you want something specific to go to in the city this month.

Build Your Own Satellite Ground Station

Dublin 12, 🇮🇪 Ireland

Get your hands dirty building a satellite ground station from scratch and geek out on some space tech!

Are you fascinated by space and want to learn how to receive data from satellites and weather probes? Join us in this TinyGS Station Workshop where you’ll build and program your ground station and antenna to receive data from space. This hands-on, beginner-friendly workshop is perfect for anyone interested in radio, electronics, IOT, antenna design, and space exploration.

About TinyGS: TinyGS is an open community-run network of Ground Stations distributed around the world to receive and operate LoRa satellites, weather probes and other flying objects, using cheap and versatile modules. With a TinyGS ground station, you can receive data from a variety of sources, such as CubeSats.

What You’ll Learn: During the workshop, you’ll learn how to build and program a TinyGS ground station and a quarter-wave ground plane antenna. No prior experience is required, and we’ll provide all the necessary materials, tools, and equipment to guide you through the process.

Materials Provided: All necessary materials, tools, and equipment will be provided for the workshop, including a quarter-wave ground plane antenna kit, a TinyGS base station kit, and a USB cable. You don’t need to bring anything except a WiFi device(computer or phone) configure and create a Telegram account. At the end of the workshop, you’ll take home your very own TinyGS ground station and antenna. You’ll be able to use your ground station to receive data from satellites and other flying objects and explore the fascinating world of space and radio. If you have any questions or want to continue learning after the workshop, we’re here to help.

Retro Radio & Computing Day at TOG

Dublin 12, 🇮🇪 Ireland

Dive into vintage tech vibes and classic radio fun with fellow retro geeks at this chill day of tinkering and nostalgia.

Dust off the old receiver, dig out that computer and bring your favourite bit of strange technology to TOG.

Our Retro Day is back as part of the TOG Radio & Retro Weekend, with a special focus on vintage radio and communications equipment. There is still plenty of room for retro computers, consoles, games and the odd peripheral that nobody quite remembers how to use.

Come along for an afternoon of demonstrations, restoration stories and chats with the people keeping old technology going. You don't need to be a radio amateur or know your way around a circuit board to enjoy it.

Radios, computers and everything in between

We're inviting members, radio clubs, collectors and visitors to bring along:

  • Vintage radios and communications equipment: receivers, transceivers, Morse keys and other interesting bits of radio history.
  • Retro computers and consoles: home computers, games, CRT displays and unusual peripherals.
  • Old test equipment and electronics: the tools and hardware that helped people build, repair and experiment.
  • Restoration projects: equipment you've brought back to life, or something you're still trying to figure out.

Some equipment may be available to try. Please ask its owner before operating it; old hardware can have its own ideas about how an afternoon should go.

Have something to show?

We'd love to hear from you. You don't need a whole collection; one interesting piece of equipment and a story about it is plenty.

Email info@tog.ie with what you'd like to bring, roughly how much table space you need, and any power or display requirements. Working equipment and projects still in progress are both welcome.

Make a weekend of it

Join us on Saturday for live radio demonstrations, callsign patch making, advanced soldering, talks and TOG's open social with pizza.

See the Saturday Radio Day programme and book your place

This event is made possible with support from Dublin City Council.
