Join the next meetup and listen to the following talks.

Dangerous Reactivity: Why AI Output Is the New XSS

Ramona Schwering · Developer Relations Engineer @ Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co. KG

Talk in English

About the Talk

Frontend developers know one golden rule: never render untrusted user input as HTML without properly sanitizing it. Every framework has its own APIs and escape hatches where this rule matters.

Yet, as we're integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) into our applications, we often make a potentially dangerous mistake: we treat AI-generated output as a trusted source.

That should be fine, right? Well, not automatically…

About the Speaker

Ramona is a developer relations engineer with roots in quality assurance. She owns both views of the product - that of a tester and a developer. Ramona primarily uses this to strengthen trust in test automation and support the testers and developers alike, becoming a Google Developer Expert in Web Technologies, Women Techmaker Ambassador, and Cypress ambassador.

Build Applications that Welcome Change

Alexander M. Turek · CTO @ SensioLabs Deutschland

Talk in English

About the Talk

Software changes. Dependencies evolve. New requirements appear. A Symfony application that can adapt without major disruption gains a powerful long-term advantage — this talk explores architectural choices that keep core business logic stable while technology evolves.

About the Speaker

Alexander likes open-source software and pushes the PHP ecosystem forward as a member of the Symfony and Doctrine core teams. He prefers codebases that have aged like a good whisky. At SensioLabs Deutschland, he helps clients that are stuck on legacy codebases and trains developers on the Symfony framework.
