Next.js & Lucia Auth
This session is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to address authentication challenges using Lucia Auth within Next.js applications.
We’ll introduce Lucia Auth, a powerful and user-friendly authentication solution that offers simplicity, flexibility, and strong security features tailored for Next.js projects. Attendees will gain insights into Lucia Auth’s architecture and how it integrates seamlessly with Next.js to create a robust and reliable authentication system.
In the hands-on portion of the session, participants will be guided step-by-step through the process of setting up Lucia Auth in a Next.js project. This practical demonstration will cover everything from initial setup to advanced configurations, including best practices for managing sessions, user roles, and environment variables. We’ll also cover essential testing and debugging techniques to ensure your implementation is both secure and efficient.
By the end of this session, attendees will be equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to implement a scalable and secure authentication system in their Next.js applications using Lucia Auth. Whether you're a novice or an experienced developer, this session will elevate your understanding of modern authentication practices and provide you with practical techniques that you can apply immediately in your projects.
OpenInfra for Telco Monitoring: Zabbix & Grafana at Work
In this session, you'll demonstrate how to automate the detection, visualization, and remediation of incidents in a modern network by using Zabbix for proactive monitoring, Grafana for telemetry visibility which are open source tools. Think alert-based pipelines, self-healing configurations, rollback deployments, and visual analytics as first responders.
Key Themes:
Zabbix as the gold source for actionable telemetry
Grafana dashboards with incident trends & SLA perspectives
At Liquid Telecom we use open source tools to monitor our network infrastructure for the entire Kenyan Opco
Enhancing Technical Documentation with MDX
Static documentation often fails to engage users or convey complex information effectively. MDX (Markdown + JSX) offers a solution by combining the simplicity of Markdown with the power of React components, enabling the creation of interactive and dynamic documentation. This talk will explore the benefits of adopting MDX, demonstrate how to integrate interactive elements seamlessly, and provide best practices to enhance user experience.
This session delves into the transformative potential of MDX in technical documentation. Participants will explore how MDX allows for the seamless integration of interactive elements, such as live code snippets, interactive demos, and dynamic visualizations, directly within documentation. This fusion not only enhances user engagement but also facilitates a deeper understanding of complex concepts by allowing readers to interact with the content in real-time.
Beyond interactivity, MDX promotes the creation of reusable components, ensuring consistency and efficiency across documentation projects. By leveraging React's component-based architecture, writers can encapsulate repetitive patterns or intricate UI elements into reusable components, streamlining the documentation process and maintaining uniformity.
Build Multi-Stage AI Agents: Vector Search + LLMs in Postman Flows
In this session, we’ll explore how to leverage Postman AI Agent Builder and Postman Flows to construct multi-stage AI agents that:
Embed and Index Data Use Postman’s integration with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone) to generate embeddings for large document collections, enabling fast, semantic similarity searches.
Perform Semantic Retrieval Execute real-time vector searches within Flows to fetch the most relevant content chunks based on user queries, eliminating manual lookups.
Drive Decision Logic with LLMs Chain AI request blocks to feed retrieved context into LLMs (OpenAI GPT, Claude, etc.), letting the model produce answers, summaries, or routing decisions as next-stage actions.
Orchestrate Multi-Stage Workflows Visually compose branches and loops in the drag-and-drop Flow canvas, integrating conditional logic, error handling, and parallel steps—all without writing glue code.
Test and Iterate Rapidly Leverage Postman’s built-in testing and mock servers to simulate agent responses, validate logic against edge cases, and fine-tune prompts in a collaborative environment.
Deploy and Monitor Export your Flow as a runnable collection or integrate with CI/CD, then monitor agent performance and usage via Postman’s analytics and logs.
Attendees will leave with:
A clear understanding of how vector search augments LLMs in agent contexts. Ready-to-use Postman Flow templates combining embeddings, search, and AI blocks. Best practices for modularizing agent stages and handling errors gracefully. Strategies for collaborative API-first AI development and rapid prototyping
Building a Cloud-Native Booking System with GCP OAuth, Calendar & Meet APIs
Modern booking tools like Cal.com and Calendly delight users by instantly adding confirmed meetings to Google Calendar and generating Google Meet links no manual steps required. In this session, we’ll demystify how to build the same frictionless experience into your own apps using Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services together with Google OAuth and the Calendar & Meet APIs.
You’ll learn how to:
Configure a secure Google OAuth consent screen and request the correct incremental scopes (Calendar, Meet, email/profile).
Exchange authorization codes for tokens and refresh them safely.
Programmatically create and update events, attach conferencing data to generate a Meet URL, and send invitations.
Handle edge cases such as token expiration, user revocation, and time-zone conflicts.
By the end, you’ll be able to implement a production-ready scheduling flow that respects user privacy while delivering the “one-click add to calendar & auto-meet” experience users expect whether you’re building a personal booking tool, a SaaS product, or enhancing internal workflows.
