Join us for the first GitHub Copilot Dev Days event in Edmonton!

We're bringing together builders, maintainers, and developers across Edmonton's growing tech community for a night focused on modern GitHub‑powered workflows, open tooling, and hands‑on learning.

​​Whether you use VS Code, JetBrains, Cursor, Claude Code, or any other tool in your stack, this meetup is GitHub‑centric but fully tool‑agnostic — come as you are, code how you like.

​​What to Expect

• ​​Live demos from local engineers and community builders

• ​​A friendly, social environment to connect, share ideas, and learn from one another
