Zig Day @ Systems Distributed '26

​This is a special one-off Zig Day event hosted at the MIT Museum in Boston!

​TigerBeetle has kindly offered to sponsor a Zig Day that runs the day before Systems Distributed '26, to give an opportunity to both locals and conference attendees to experience a Zig Day.

​Zig Days are full-day collaborative programming events.

​We meet in the morning, introduce ourselves and form small groups to work on learning / passion projects with the ultimate goal of learning systems thinking and how to make software you can love.

​Here you can learn more about systems thinking and software you can love.

​The event is open to the public but spaces are limited; attendance is by registration only.

​The program will run as follows (times are approximate):

• ​9:00 - 9:30: gathering and chit-chat

• ​9:30 - 10:00: introductions, form groups, setup workstations

• ​10:00 - 01:00: work on stuff together

• ​01:00 - 02:30: lunch break

• ​02:30 - 04:30: work on stuff together (continued)

• ​04:30 - 05:00: show others what you built and what you learnt
