​What we’ll explore

​🥽 Exploring Opportunities in Spatial Technology (AR/VR)
By Tafani Rabbani from Spatial Indonesia
Explore the world of spatial technology and discover the opportunities that are emerging in AR/VR. From building immersive experiences to exploring career and learning paths, get a better picture of where spatial technology can take you.

​🤖 Bringing Siri AI Into Your App With App Intents
By Jia Chen from iOSConfSG
Discover how App Intents can make your app more discoverable and deeply integrated with the platform. Learn how to expose your app's actions and content to Siri and the system, enabling experiences like Siri AI, Spotlight Search, and Shortcuts automations. Through a live coding demo, we'll build an app using App Intents, Siri AI, on-screen awareness, and maybe even sneak in a look at the new Coding Intelligence in Xcode 27.

​🧠 Psychology of Design: The Hidden Design Choice Behind Every App You Use
By Adhe Tertiasusman, Design Mentor at Apple Developer Academy @IL & part of Designdock.batam
Every interface you use is making a quiet decision — who it wants to move fast, and who it wants to slow down. This session unpacks the design principle hiding behind checkout flows, cancel buttons, and pricing pages, so you can start spotting it — both in the products you use every day, and in the ones you'll go on to build.

​Meet the Community

​More than just talks, this is a chance to meet fellow builders, exchange ideas, discover new opportunities, and grow together with Batam’s tech community.

​🍪 Community Potluck
We’ll also have a casual potluck during the sessions! Please bring your favorite snacks, foods (don't bring Nasi Padang 😅), or treats to share with everyone. We’d love to enjoy and connect over food together!

​Whether you’re a student, developer, designer, or simply curious about technology, you’re welcome to join.
