Software Engineering Events in Paris

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

Paris hosts one of Europe's most serious AI-research scenes. Mistral, Hugging Face, Kyutai, and a long list of labs cluster here, and the conference calendar reflects that with dense ML and applied-AI events. The city is also Europe's de facto Web3 capital thanks to EthCC each July, with a steady rhythm of Ethereum, ZK, and L2 community events in between.

Build Night: Ship Something Businesses Need

Paris, đŸ‡«đŸ‡· France

Luo Build Night Paris đŸ‡«đŸ‡·

Build something useful. Ship it in one evening.

Join us in Paris for a hands-on Build Night with Luo.app, bringing together students, builders, entrepreneurs, engineers, and business minds for an evening of creating real business applications.

This isn’t a traditional conference or an evening of presentations. You’ll actually build.

Using Luo, you’ll turn an idea into a working business application or reusable template in just a few hours.

Think:

  • Internal tools
  • Business dashboards
  • Client portals
  • Workflow applications
  • Automations
  • Sales & operations tools
  • Or something completely new

You can arrive with an idea already in mind or simply come ready to explore. The Luo team will introduce the platform, show you how it works, and support you throughout the build.

🏆 The Challenge

Build something useful. Ship it in one evening.

Your mission is simple: identify a real business problem and build a practical solution using Luo.

You can participate individually or in a team of up to 3 people. Teams can collaborate using Luo Rooms, a shared workspace designed for building together.

Unlimited Building During the Event

All participants will receive access to Luo Individual during the 4-hour Build Night, with usage quotas reset as needed, allowing you to build without worrying about credit limits.

Prizes & Credits

💰 €600 Total Cash Prizes!

Build something amazing and compete for exciting cash prizes!

1st Place: €300 Cash Prize

2nd Place: €200 Cash Prize

3rd Place: €100 Cash Prize

2 Weeks of Luo Individual Access

Every participant will receive two weeks of Luo Individual access to continue building and improving their projects after the event, with approximately €6,000 worth of credits available collectively.

Opportunity to Become a Luo Ambassador in Paris

One outstanding participant will be selected for the opportunity to become a Luo Ambassador in Paris, working closely with the Luo team, contributing to community initiatives, and gaining valuable experience alongside a fast-growing company.

Your Project Could Go Further

Your project doesn’t necessarily have to end when the Build Night does.

If you create a great reusable template, Luo may feature it in their app catalogue, allowing other users to discover, install, and use what you’ve built.

So you’re not just building a demo.

You could leave the event having created something that real businesses can use.

đŸ—“ïž Agenda

4:00 PM – 4:30 PM | Welcome, Introductions & Meet the Community

Check in, meet the organizers, connect with other builders, and get to know the Luo team.

We’ll introduce the companies and communities behind the evening and set the stage for the challenge.

4:30 PM – 4:45 PM | Luo Demo & Hackathon Kickoff

A quick introduction to Luo followed by a live demonstration.

We’ll show you how the platform works, introduce the challenge and judging criteria, and give you everything you need to start building.

4:45 PM – 7:30 PM | Build Hackathon

Time to build.

Design, build, test, and improve your application or template.

The Luo team and organizers will be around throughout the session to help with ideas, technical questions, and feedback.

7:30 PM – 8:00 PM | Food, Networking & Project Review

Building wraps up at 7:30 PM.

Grab some food, meet the other builders, explore what everyone created, and network while the projects are reviewed.

8:00 PM | 🏆 Winners Announcement & Closing

We’ll announce the winning projects, celebrate what everyone built, and wrap up the evening together.

đŸ‘„ Who Should Join?

You don’t need to be a hardcore developer to participate.

This Build Night is for:

  • Developers & AI engineers
  • Product builders
  • Entrepreneurs & founders
  • Business & strategy students
  • Designers
  • Consultants
  • Operations & GTM people
  • Anyone curious about building modern business applications

Whether you already know exactly what you want to build or simply want to experiment, you’re welcome.

đŸ’» What to Bring

Bring your laptop, charger, curiosity, and an idea if you have one.

Everything else can happen in the room.

đŸ‡«đŸ‡· See You in Paris

Come meet other ambitious builders, experiment with Luo, turn an idea into a working application, get feedback from the community, and leave the evening with something tangible.

One evening. One idea. Build it. Ship it.

Meetup de Novembre chez Music Work !

Paris, đŸ‡«đŸ‡· France

Le Paris Android User Group revient le jeudi 12 novembre 2026, et c’est Music Work qui nous ouvre ses portes ! Un grand merci Ă  toute l’équipe pour l’accueil.

Au programme de cette soirĂ©e : deux talks bien concrets. Le premier nous ramĂšne aux fondamentaux d’Android en construisant un launcher de A Ă  Z, le second transforme les captures d’écran du Play Store en une simple sortie de build, gĂ©nĂ©rĂ©e Ă  partir d’un test unitaire.

Et comme toujours, on prolonge la discussion autour de pizzas.

Venez avec vos questions, vos retours d’expĂ©rience et votre enthousiasme.

Rencontrez d’autres passionnĂ©s, Ă©largissez votre rĂ©seau et commencez Ă  vous chauffer pour Android Makers ! 🚀

Tous les talks seront en français đŸ‡«đŸ‡·.

👹 Talk #1: Building my own Android launcher (and rediscovering Android basics along the way)
Renaud Mathieu

Modern Android development hides a lot from us. Between Compose, Jetpack libraries, and modern architecture libraries, it is easy to spend years shipping apps without touching the primitives that make the platform work.

I wanted a home screen that actually fit the way I use my phone. So I built my own launcher. It turned out to be the best Android refresher I have had in years.

In this session, we will build a launcher step by step and meet the classics on the way: how the system decides which app is “home”, how intents and intent filters expose every launchable activity, how PackageManager and LauncherApps list what is installed, how BroadcastReceivers keep you in sync when apps come and go, how AppWidgetHost lets you host widgets, and what really happens in the task stack when you press the Home button.

You will leave with a renewed respect for Android’s fundamentals, but don’t worry, we will also cover much of modern Android development.

👹 Talk #2: Screenshots as code: shipping Play Store assets from a unit test
Julien Salvi

Updating Play Store screenshots usually goes like this: someone takes captures on a device, a designer puts them into frames, someone else translates the headlines, and the whole thing goes out of date at the next redesign. At Aircall we replaced that process with a JVM unit test.

This talk covers a small tool module that renders our real Compose screens from the same fixtures as their Android Studio previews. It runs headlessly with Robolectric and Roborazzi, so there’s no emulator, no device and no golden images. Each screen goes into a real Pixel device frame on a mesh gradient background with a localized headline, and the output is Play-compliant PNGs for every screen and locale. A manual CI job then uploads them through the Play Developer API as a single atomic edit.

You’ll leave with a pattern you can reuse to treat store assets like any other build output: reviewable, reproducible and one click away from the store.

🍕 Pizzas & networking
On termine la soirée autour de pizzas pour échanger avec les speakers et la communauté.

OpenSearch Paris Meetup - 19 November

Paris, đŸ‡«đŸ‡· France

🎉 Join us for an exciting technical evening dedicated to discovering OpenSearch at the next OpenSearch meetup in Paris!

📅 Date: 19 November, from 19:00 to 22:00
📍 Location: STATION F - 5 Parv. Alan Turing, 75013 Paris
🔐 Important: Registration on Meetup with your full name is mandatory to access the venue.

đŸ—“ïž Agenda:

19:00 - 19:40 : No more zero results with vector query relaxing in OpenSearch

Zero-result pages drain e-commerce revenue, and lexical query relaxing strategies like synonyms, fuzziness, and filter relaxation only go so far. Vector search in OpenSearch acts as a semantic safety net, retrieving relevant products when exact keyword matches fail. Fine-tuned models trained on real navigation data bridge the vocabulary gap. Scaling this for sub-100 ms response times requires ANN algorithms, deterministic routing via the preference parameter (which cut IOPS by 50% in production), native quantization, and recall-recovery techniques like ADC and Random Rotation.

19:50 - 20:30 : Coming soon! Would you like to speak ? Bring your best ideas at https://sessionize.com/opensearch-paris-meetup/

🌟 Why join us?

  • Explore the extensibility of OpenSearch in depth
  • Learn from real-world use cases and practical demonstrations
  • Meet domain experts and a passionate community
  • Grow your professional network in the world of search and AI

📌 Limited seats — register now to secure your spot!

See you soon! 🚀
