Last night we put the pitchforks down and combined the powers of PyDataMCR, Manchester Gophers, Queer in Tech & Rust Manchester to come together this Hacktoberfest and dive into the world of open source
development.

Massive thanks to Fatsoma for sponsoring this event from venue to food!

Big thanks to @www.jvt.me for running the "What story does your dependency tree tell you about your org?"

Great tooling on how to manage dependencies and surface up actionable data using dmd!

You can catch this workshop at GopherconUK if you are attending!

Thanks to Nandos for hosting the June meetup and of course our very own @lotus-engineer.com for the talk!

Nandos chicken was had and discussions on starting small and keep iterating while building a project and error handling proposals being paused as well as new faces to get to know!

Big thanks to Sam Burns for giving a talk on weak pointers on our April Go meetup!

We had a great time and good conversations afterwards around use cases for weak pointers.

Stay tuned for the next meetup in May!

For more info check our website in our bio.

It was amazing to see everyone again after our 2 month hiatus, and to see new faces too!

A huge thanks to @matryer.bsky.social for the interactive talk about his blog post linked below.
