The Story

*Please RSVP ahead of time so we can get an accurate count on coffee.* Everybody will check in at the ground floor security desk before heading up to the 4th floor. Please bring a government-issued ID for check-in. Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Some people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and some come and (also optionally) socialize the entire time. We encourage everyone to attend our variety of workshops and events we host each meetup, but it's entirely up to you to just come in and hangout! **Feature Talk:** Stop coding. Build software factories instead. Summary: Teams are feeling like they're moving significantly faster, while still feeling like they can't keep up. Let's explore how we can build modern software at a new layer of abstraction. [Ryan Randall](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-randall2/) is the founder of OuterLayer.ai. Previously, Ryan founded AgentMark to help teams build reliable agents. We're now working on the new layer where modern software gets built. Ryan lives in Dover, NH with his wife, son, and dog/cat. Prior to startup world, Ryan worked at HubSpot and Curriculum Associates. **The Intro Circle** **Near the beginning of the event (12:30 pm), we do a standup in a circle:** * We first announce organizer announcements, updates, and logistics **Round 1 - (7 secs max):** * Your name * What you can help others with * What you would like help with * Job **opportunities you're hiring for** **Round 2:** * **Community events you wanna plug**. If none, that's cool too. *After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized. We sometimes have FEATURES in a nearby room; checkout those events on Meetup as well.* **🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Community Discord - come hang out before and after!:** [https://discord.com/invite/xZNGCz6uXg](https://discord.com/invite/xZNGCz6uXg) *We will be looking to take photos during the meet up.
