Julia Berlin Users

Upcoming events

We are having meetup at WIAS this Tuesday, October 15th at 19:00. Attention, this time it will be on the 4th floor. (Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin)

This time, the discussion might focus on Julia v1.11 and related stuff.

Regular meeting

Date/Time : We usually meet every 3rd Tuesday of the month at 19:00. We sometimes have a short presentation on a personal project or a cool package, then followed by a "Hack and Learn" session.

For this "Hack and Learn", everyone of any level is welcome to join and code/fix/create bugs! Everyone is there to help and to answer questions on all topics.

To never forget a meeting add our calendar: Berlin Julia Users calendar

Discussion topics

We keep an active list of topics we are interestd to discuss during our meetups. The list is hosted on HackMD.io and can be directly commented on from this page.

Inclusiveness statement

It seems unfortunate to have to make this statement but the computing world is not always know for its inclusivity or diversity. We are commited to welcoming anyone who is interested in joining our meet-up and will do our best to learn to communicate with them in a manner which makes them feel a full member of our community without the barriers of rank, background, gender, colour or other distinction.
