Flutter Berlin × CarOnSale

Join us for an evening of Flutter, Dart, and networking hosted by CarOnSale. We'll kick things off with a deep dive into one of Dart's newest language features, followed by a second session and plenty of time to connect with fellow developers from the Berlin Flutter community. **Schedule** **18:30 — Doors Open** Check in, grab a drink, and meet fellow Flutter developers from the Berlin community. **19:00 — Welcome Notes** A short introduction from Flutter Berlin and our hosts at CarOnSale. **Talk 1 — Hiding Complexity with Dart Extension Types — Roman** Extension types in Dart 3.3+ let you elegantly hide the real complexity behind clean abstractions. They enable powerful patterns for true compile-time singletons with strong privacy guarantees, while also letting you build robust zero-cost Value Objects that enforce domain invariants and create a clear ubiquitous language — all with zero runtime cost. **About Roman** Roman is a Google-awarded Flutter Developer and Staff Mobile Engineer at CarOnSale.de, where he has worked for 4 years as part of his 8 years of Flutter experience (and over a decade in design). He loves Dart as his primary language and Rust as a complementary one (along with TS/Swift), but believes strong programming fundamentals matter more than any specific syntax. In his role he mentors Flutter developers and shapes architecture solutions. Outside of work he prioritizes family and open-source. **Talk 2 — TBA** Our second session of the evening will be announced soon. **20:30 — Networking & Socialising** Meet fellow Flutter developers, exchange ideas, discuss the talks, and connect with the local community. **22:00 — Doors Close** We wrap up the evening and head home inspired with new ideas and connections.

PUTTING FOOD & WINE PAIRING ON ITS HEAD: NON-ITALIAN WINES FOR ITALIAN CUISINE

One of the golden rules of food and wine pairing says **"what grows together goes together"**.

Select and bring a bottle (still or sparkling, white, rosé or red) that is unconventional, unexpected, exciting or simply daring that will astound and inspire even the most traditional Italian sommelier. The requirements for the wine are simple, \- price range of 15€ plus\)\, \- if white\, rose\, sparkling please bring already chilled\, and **IMPORTANTLY,** keep the wine covered so no-one can see it. At our blind wine tasting events - we share, we taste, we analyse, we discuss, we enjoy and we attempt to identify what’s in the glass. No expertise is required - Curiosity is enough. **💶 Contribution** **€25 donation per person (plus your bottle of wine)** **A 72-hour cancellation policy applies.** **Who Should Join?** This evening is open to everyone — from curious enthusiasts to experienced wine lovers.

Offener Deutschunterricht - Text & Konversation - Niveau B2+ (Fortgeschritten)

In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.
