Vor einigen Jahren war der Autor gezwungen, eine gewachsene SPA bestehend aus Angular Frontend und Spring Boot Backend allein zu übernehmen und fortzuentwickeln. Dieser damals übliche Technologiestack, zu dem sich ehrlicherweise noch eine 3. Anwendung dazugesellt, das Rest API, schien aber nicht wirklich dazu geeignet, als Einzel-Entwickler damit das anspruchsvolle ERP Projekt weiterzuentwickeln. Auf der Suche nach Alternativen und möglichst einheitliche Technologien stieß ich auf Vaadin als Java-Web-Framework und war schnell begeistert. Da ich mich bereits vor einiger Zeit von Hibernate / JPA verabschiedet hatte und stattdessen typisches typsicheres SQL in Java mit jOOQ nutzte, hatte ich damit den für mich passenden Tech-Stack beisammen. Mittlerweile bauen wir damit zu zweit die 3. komplexe ERP Suite.
In meinem Vortrag + Live-Coding möchte ich diesen Tech-Stack vorstellen, auf Vorteile und Stolperfallen eingehen und das Ganze vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen disruptiven Entwicklungen durch die Nutzung von KI Coding Agenten bewerten.

Referent:
Dominik Hirt ist Java-Entwickler seit der 0.9 beta und seit 2011 selbstständiger Architekt, Entwickler und Coach. Seit einigen Jahren gelingt es ihm durch den vorgestellten Tech-Stack für seine eigenen Kunden vom Requirements Engineering bis zum Betrieb der Anwendung Verantwortung zu übernehmen und so den Bau eines Teilchenbeschleunigers, den Einsatz von Solarmodulen im Salzwasser des Indischen Ozean oder die Instandsetzung tausender Wohnungen zu unterstützen.

Hafengeburtstag mit Ausblick von unserem Office im Tower am Michel. Drinks, Talks und fachlicher Austausch. Sei dabei!

Ein kuratiertes Austauschformat für erfahrene Produkt-Verantwortliche

Gute Produktentscheidungen entstehen selten im Alleingang.
Und schon gar nicht unter Zeitdruck, vollen Kalendern und steigender Komplexität.

Mit dem Product Circle at slashwhy schaffen wir einen Rahmen für genau die Gespräche, die im Alltag oft zu kurz kommen:

• ehrlicher Austausch über reale Herausforderungen
• Perspektiven von Menschen mit ähnlicher Verantwortung
• neue Impulse für Produkt, Organisation und Zusammenarbeit

Kein Meetup. Kein Frontal-Event.
Sondern ein bewusst kleiner Kreis von Menschen, die Produktentwicklung aktiv gestalten.

Und weil der Kontext stimmt, entstehen oft die besten Gespräche:
Parallel zum Event findet der Hamburger Hafengeburtstag statt. Aus unserem Büro im 13. Stock im Tower am Michel habt ihr einen direkten Blick auf das Geschehen im Hafen.

Wir nutzen diesen Rahmen, um den Nachmittag gemeinsam ausklingen zu lassen – mit guter Verpflegung und einer kleinen Verkostung unseres selbstgebrauten slashwhy-Bieres.

We're watching the Google I/O together in the Google Hamburg Office.

„If someone is taking a journey, he (or she) can tell a story. Therefore I would take my staff and hat and would choose to travel.“ (Matthias Claudius, 1740-1815)
The present talk was designed with exactly this, 1000-times heard (and slightly updated), German proverb in the back of the mind. It summarizes the gist of 20+ years in the software development business and outlines what the presenter identified as relevant for a productive and thriving survival out there in „the wild“. The talk covers:
1.) Characteristics of software development (aka „the complex environment“)
2.) What is experience and how do you gain it? (aka „the Dreyfus learning model“)
3.) Cognitive biases and factors of influence related to the software development process
4.) The gist of software development: „Precision, guess work, unreliable data and questionable knowledge“
5.) Observations on humans that code and Hype Driven Development (including the current hype of AI)
6.) (Almost) Eternal & current challenges of software development
7.) Technology & tools
So, have you ever been wondering why we, as a whole community of experts, so often struggle to tame the beast called software development? The "Thoughts on (Modern?) Software Development" talk presents some possible answers to the question why our ongoing fight is - and will very likely remain - a tough one.
Spoiler: Most of the time it is not about what your stakeholders, or you as someone who is directly involved, think it is…

The lineup:
Hello by Anja Schumann. Board member of moinworld.

First talk:
Pauline Henry - "How I changed my career to IT"
Abstract:
A story of a successful transition from hospitality to tech after 35, highlighting how transferable skills and resilience can unlock new career paths.
Bio:
I began my career in restaurants, working my way up from waitress to hotel operations manager, leading large multicultural teams. I pivoted into tech as sales manager after completing my MBA.

My background has given me strong skills in leadership, problem-solving, and customer-centric thinking, which I now leverage to drive results in my tech role.
I am passionate about inspiring others, especially women, to pursue bold career changes and opportunities in tech.

Second talk:
Vaishnavi Pagadala - Data Chaos to Data Culture: A Real Story

Abstract: A journey towards building a data-driven culture—covering challenges, approach, and key learnings

Bio:
Vaishnavi: I have over 12 years of experience working across BI, data engineering, and analytics. My journey started with building reports and dashboards and gradually evolved into designing scalable data platforms and leading data teams.

Having seen the challenges of data from multiple angles, I now focus on simplifying how teams access and use data in their everyday work. I am passionate about moving organizations from reactive, request-driven data usage to a culture where teams can confidently make decisions backed by reliable and accessible data.

Who organizes the whole thing?
This event is organized by moinworld e.V.. A non profit organization that emerged from the Women Techmakers Meetup. It provides a network for minorities in IT and at the same time offers a platform for everyone to make a contribution so that IT can be a tool for everyone.
