Ghent | Open Source AI Show & Tell 🦞 (Openclaw, Opencode, ...)

​The first Open Source AI Show & Tell in Ghent. 🦞

​A handful of locals demo what they built or discovered with open-source AI tools. OpenCode, OpenClaw, local models, self-built agents, weird workflows that actually work. Then we talk about it over a drink.

​Bring your laptop if you want to follow along.

​What to expect:

• ​Intro circle

• ​3-5 live demos (5-10 min each) from community members showing real open-source AI workflows

  • ​Nick Veenhof - Opencode

  • ​Brent Gees - Kilo Code

  • ​Serokh Walid - Openclaw

  • ​Bram Veenhof - Openclaw

  • ​Thomas Vande Casteele - Openclaw

  • ​Want to show something? Message me in advance! First come first serve.

• ​Q&A and open discussion after each demo

• ​Informal bar chat to close

​What to bring: Yourself. Optionally your laptop. The vibe: Casual. Curious. Beginner-friendly. Want to demo something? Send a message.

​About your host

​Nick Veenhof has been building open-source communities since before it was a career.

​He started contributing to Drupal in 2007, helped scale search infrastructure at Acquia, and co-organised Drupal Developer Days 2022 in Ghent (360 people, 40+ countries). He chairs the Belgian Drupal User Group and leads Developer Relations at GitLab, where his team works with thousands of open-source contributors worldwide.

​Ghent has a "pay it forward" culture. This is Nick paying it forward.

​This is not a corporate event. He is just curious what his neighbours are building.
