How to Start Developing with Machine Learning

Language: en Complexity: Beginner

Curious about machine learning? Come to this event and learn how to get started! The best part about developing with machine learning today is that you can get started with no prior experience. At this event, we’ll introduce “ready to use” APIs from Google Cloud Platform, and TensorFlow, an open source library for machine intelligence. Then we’ll work through some codelabs (guided step by step tutorials). Please bring a laptop.

Understanding IntelliJ Plugins

Language: en Complexity: Intermediate

An introduction to IntelliJ plugin architectures and a guide on how to navigate the IntelliJ APIs. Since everything is open and extendable in IntelliJ you are enabled to build nearly anything you can imagine, but the breadth of APIs and lack of thorough documentation also means starting out is very daunting. Through this presentation you will gain an understanding of the IntelliJ API design and the skills to get started on building tools.

Stealing the Web’s Best Feature

Language: en Complexity: Intermediate

Square Cash recently moved some core business logic out of Java and into an embedded scripting language. This allows the web, iOS, and Android clients to share the same code, as well as update that logic on the fly without requiring an app update. Learn the background behind this decision, how we leverage the technology on Android, and how you can do the same with your app.
