SUMMARY:The Dockering of .NET
DESCRIPTION:The June meeting of dotNet Miami will have one of our most popular speakers talking about one of the hottest technologies. .NET expert and Away From The Keyboard host\, Cecil Phillip\, will show us the marrying of Docker and .NET. Cecil will review the basics of Docker and how we can add containers to our applications.\nLocation\nWe’ll be meeting at the Microsoft Innovation Center at Venture Hive. The Microsoft Innovation Center in Miami (MIC Miami) is a state-of-the-art technology facility open to students\, software developers\, academic faculty\, entrepreneurs\, and startups for collaboration and skills development. Microsoft Innovation Center at Venture Hive is located at 1010 NE 2nd Ave Miami\, FL 33132. There’s limited parking in front of Venture Hive. If that lot is full there’s an empty lot directly behind the Venture Hive building. \nAnd as always we’ll have prizes at the end of the meeting\, including a free copy of Resharper from JetBrains!\nThe Dockering of .NET\nContainers are everywhere! They have taken over the software industry\, and are changing the way that we think about building applications.

The containers are coming to get you. \nIn this talk\, we’ll attempt to demystify many of the fundamental concepts around containers and Docker. We will explore a few real life use cases to see some of the ways Docker is being used in production today. We’ll also spend some taming the tooling and seeing what it’s like to add Docker support to our .NET applications. By the end of this talk\, you should be able to answer questions “Why Docker?”\, and have the confidence to being dockerizing your code.

SUMMARY:UX Field Research Basics w/ UX Designer & Author David Farkas
DESCRIPTION:Co-hosted with Ironhack and Building.co\, IxDA Miami is please to present a talk on “UX Field Research Basics” with user experience designer & author\, David Farkas.\nWith the speed at which technology is changing\, field research offers understanding into how products can impact the lives of your customers. Regardless if it’s your first or hundredth time\, conducting field research is a daunting task. Planning and conducting field research is a juggling act between preparation\, interview skills\, and synthesis. In this talk\, I’ll share some of the soft skills and key principles involved in any researcher’s toolkit and explore lessons learned from the three main stages of conducting field studies:\nStage 1: Planning and prep — Gathering good research data starts with proper planning. This includes everything from writing interview questions and developing an interview guide to recruiting participants and determining logistics.\nStage 2: Out in the field — Research can drain you both physically and mentally. I will introduce some tricks to keep your mind sharp\, allowing you to give each session your focus.\nStage 3: Finding the patterns — The data resulting from field research grows quickly. I outline a few techniques for making the most out of limited time and managing mountains of information.\nDavid is a User Experience Designer in Philadelphia\, PA and co-author of UX Research: Practical Techniques for Designing Better Products. A Miami native\, David moved to Pennsylvania for college and started his career in-house. He has worked in consultancies of all sizes\, has had opportunities to craft the design process within an organization\, and has adopted and evolved existing paradigms. His experience includes a range of financial services systems\, business systems\, and e-commerce and cross-channel platforms.\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dfarkas/\nFor more\, keep up with David at dfarkasdesign.com or on Twitter as @dafark8.
