Community Standup🌟

News & Updates
#1

Hello everyone :wave:

It’s been great seeing people’s introductions on the intro thread and getting little hints about the cool stuff people are working on. We’ve got quite the group of hackers and devs here working on all sorts of interesting projects and I think there’d be value in starting some conversations around them!

We think it’d be pretty cool to get together (virtually!) on a semi-regular basis to talk about what we’re all working on and toss ideas around. would there be any interest in an open community standup? Nothing fancy or formal - just a casual group call for anyone who wants to drop in for a nerdy chat :robot:

We’re thinking of trying it out sometime next week and just seeing how it goes. If you’d be keen (or not :stuck_out_tongue:) discuss below! we’ve also set up a doodle poll to see what people’s availability is like.

TL;DR: Fill out the doodle poll here: https://doodle.com/poll/qvpi88quhtrsv5xy

Thanks to @izzylys, @teocomi, @pauldotnet, @pablothedolphin, @antoine, @pathespe, @mishaelnuh, @daviddekoning & @TomSvilans for joining and providing nice banter. For those who missed it, we’ve covered various stuff - but no fixed agenda, and it was mostly nice to see each other in one place!

  • 2.0 transitions
  • GraphQL :dancer:t4:
  • Current dev efforts in Arup
  • Some vague promises about a 2.0 :snake:python client
  • Personal stories, trials and tribulations
  • We made quite a bit of fun of each other

We’ll do this again. Most likely monthly, and we’ll give the shout here.

Hey @Community! It’s that time again - our monthly community standup is on again on the 16th of December 2020 at 4.30pm BST / 5.30pm CET / 11.30am EST. We went for a bit later in our day so we can have a glass of mulled wine as well :slight_smile:

At this next meeting, we would like to feature your Speckle work, not just ours - so if you want to grab 5 minutes of online fame - let us know at hello [ at ] speckle [ dot ] systems - we’re looking forward to see what you volunteer!

We have a preliminary schedule in mind, just to try and make the most out of it:

  • 5 mins Intros (& buffer time for figuring out how to use google meet)
  • 10-15 mins Speckle 2.0 Updates: we’ve got a bunch of new features in that we want to bring you up to speed with and get your feels on.
  • 10-15 mins Community Show and Tell: we’ve seen that you’re doing a lot of good stuff, and we want to give you a chance to show it off. Drop us a line on what you want to present, and we’ll make it fit!
  • 20 mins: Q&A session: you get to ask us any questions, and we’ll do our best to answer. We’ll also ask some questions ourselves!

If it’s too early for a drink, non-alcoholic beverages are also accepted as valid offerings to the gods of video calls. Lastly, get comfy & grab the calendar invite from down below:

Add it to your calendar:

Google Meet direct link: https://meet.google.com/nux-dnwv-pye (note, might change, we’ll notify if so!)
