Sessions

Four offerings, each with its format, length and level, what attendees leave with, and what the venue needs to provide. All can be delivered in English or German (slides and hand-outs are in English either way).

None of them quite right? I am glad to adapt a session to your audience, or to write a new talk where there is demand for one — say what the room needs and we will work it out. I am also happy to take a panel discussion, a podcast, a webinar or a university lecture, either on its own or alongside a session.

Workshops2

Hands-on, everyone builds. These need tables, power and Wi-Fi, and they work best with a room you can cap rather than a hall.

AI-Native Web Development, Hands-On

Format
Workshop
Length
2 hours
Level
Beginner — no prior AI experience needed
Language
English or German

The way we build for the web just changed: AI no longer only autocompletes code — it builds a real page, runs it in the browser, tests it, and fixes its own mistakes. In this fully hands-on session you’ll experience that shift firsthand, going from a blank screen to a modern web page you designed and shipped live, all in one sitting. Whether you’re a student making your first real project or a professional modernising how you work, you’ll leave with something real online and a way of building you can put to use the very next day.

Built for a mixed room: students get a first real win they can share, professionals get a faster workflow. Everybody builds — nobody just watches slides.

Tools used: Antigravity, Chrome’s built-in on-device AI, Modern Web Guidance, and Chrome DevTools for agents.

Attendees leave with

A finished web page of their own, live on the internet, and a workflow they can use the next working day.

What the venue provides

  • Projector (HDMI or USB-C)
  • Workshop seating: tables and chairs, so participants can work on their laptops
  • Power outlets within reach of every seat, or extension cords
  • Stable Wi-Fi for all participants
  • Participants bring their own laptop — this is a hands-on session
  • Nothing to install on the venue side; everything runs on the participants' machines

Agentic Coding, End to End: Plan, Build, Ship, and Keep Going

Delivered at Build with AI 2026, GDG Pristina (30 April 2026). The full record.

Format
Workshop
Length
4 hours
Level
Beginner — no prior AI or cloud experience required
Language
English or German

A four-hour hands-on workshop for anyone new to agentic coding — working developers curious about the shift, career-starters, bootcamp graduates, students and career-switchers alike. Attendees run the full pipeline themselves — spec, design, build, deploy — using the production Google toolchain: Antigravity, Gemini Gems, Stitch and Cloud Run. They leave with a working, deployed site of their own and a real mental model of how to drive an AI agent end to end.

What sets this apart: most workshops end at the door. This one doesn’t. Every attendee keeps access to a living online student guide — with deeper chapters on prompting, memory, recovery and spec-driven workflows — so they can keep building after the room empties.

Bring a laptop. Cloud credits are provided at the door; no credit card needed.

Attendees leave with

A working, deployed site of their own, plus continuing access to a living student guide.

What the venue provides

  • Projector (HDMI or USB-C)
  • Workshop seating: tables and chairs, so participants can work on their laptops
  • Power outlets within reach of every seat, or extension cords
  • Stable Wi-Fi for all participants
  • Participants bring their own laptop — this is a hands-on session

AI in Reality Check: What Really Makes 150 Shops Faster and More Profitable

Delivered at E-Commerce BBQ 2026 (11 June 2026). The full record.

Talk
Length
40 minutes + Q&A
Level
All levels
Language
English or German

This talk cuts through the AI hype in e-commerce with hard facts and real browser data from over 150 European shops. It moves past theories and assumptions and stays on the metrics: how to evaluate AI-assistant traffic for genuine customer engagement rather than noise, and what AI-driven predictive loading actually did to the numbers.

First delivered in German at E-Commerce BBQ 2026 in Karlsruhe. Available in either language.

Attendees leave with

How to tell genuine engagement from noise in AI-driven traffic, and which measured effects on speed and revenue held up in the data.

What the venue provides

  • Projector (HDMI or USB-C) — nothing needed from attendees

Mission Zero: Loading Websites Instantly

Delivered at DevFest Cairo 2025 (13 December 2025) and DevFest Sousse 2024 (3 November 2024). The full record.

Format
Talk
Length
30–60 minutes
Level
All levels
Language
English or German

A year of experiments with new browser APIs on large German e-commerce platforms, and what came out of them. The talk works through four of them in turn — back/forward cache, the Speculation Rules API for pre-rendering, service workers, and compression dictionaries — and what each one did to Largest Contentful Paint once it was running in front of real traffic.

Aimed at developers and solution architects who want to try these on their own sites rather than read about them.

Delivered at DevFest Sousse 2024 and, as The Shift from Web Performance Optimization to Prediction, at DevFest Cairo 2025.

Attendees leave with

Four browser APIs they can try on their own site, and what each one was actually worth in production.

What the venue provides

  • Projector (HDMI or USB-C) — nothing needed from attendees

After the session

Every session ships something written afterwards, talks included: what was covered, the slides, and where to read further if the room wants to go deeper. Workshops get the whole build as well — setup, every step, and deep-dive chapters for the parts three hours can only introduce. A worked example: the guide written for Build with AI in Pristina — you leave this site.
