Programming Café - 6 March 2025

to

Do you want to meet other researchers, improve your programming skills, or ask questions related to programming? Pick up your laptop and come to the Programming Café! 

During this informal meet-up, which is a ‘relaunch’ of the popular , we will share knowledge about programming through short presentations, work on programming projects, and help each other with challenges in working with code and data.

March 6th: Introduction to Streamlit

Spring is around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than by turning our lonely data analyses into colourful, shareable apps? In our next Programming Café, Garrett Speed, Data Steward at the Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ, will share his experience with and introduce you to Streamlit.

Streamlit is an open-source Python framework that allows data scientists and AI/ML engineers to build interactive data apps and dashboards with just a few lines of code. Python ... Apps ... ! Data science ... !! Open source!!! Do I need to say more? Grab a seat, enjoy Garrett's presentation, bombard our software engineers with questions about programming, life, and everything else, or simply work from here while enjoying free drinks and snacks.

Join us at the Programming Café, we can’t wait to see you there!

What to expect

During the Programming Café, you can work on your own project and share knowledge in a community setting. You can also bring your programming questions, bugs, and problems to resolve or discuss with members of RDM Support and researchers attending the café.  

Furthermore, each Programming Café will have a special theme. This is typically a short presentation or demonstration of (maximum) half an hour. We are always looking for suggestions on themes and people who want to present something. Don’t hesitate to send an email to info.rdm@uu.nl if you want to provide a suggestion or give a presentation! 

Who can attend 

Everyone is welcome at the Programming Café! You can be of any skill level and at any stage in working with your code and data. We expect most attendees will be R or Python users, but users of other programming languages and software are invited as well.  

Registration 

Registrations are not mandatory, but we appreciate them in order to arrange refreshments and snacks. For the same reason, it would be helpful to deregister in case you can no longer attend. You can register using the link at the bottom of this page.
