Show and Tell (IRL)
Built something? Come show it off.
Show and Tell is back after a great first run. Last time we saw a 3D engine written from scratch in Vulkan, a picoCTF solution optimized step by step, a deep dive into processes and threads, an AI chess tutor, and a game concept. This time we want even more of the real thing.
The format
Each demo is 5–10 minutes, followed by a few minutes of questions. Skip the slide deck. Open your editor, run your prototype, step through your terminal, or hold up your hardware. A sentence or two of context is plenty, then let the work speak.
What counts?
A side project or product you’re building, even if it’s half-broken
A piece of code you’re proud of (or confused by)
A bug you finally squashed or a problem you recently solved
A CTF challenge walkthrough
Something you learned and can demonstrate live
A hardware or electronics project
Rough and unfinished is welcome. Works-in-progress make the best conversations.
Not presenting? Come anyway. Watching, asking questions, and meeting other Edmonton devs is half the point.
