Hosted by European Software Crafters

See how human-review tools and guardrails can keep AI-built software aligned with real code and behaviour in this online engineering meetup. Hosted by Victor R. for European Software Crafters, the session takes place online on Friday 30 October 2026 at 10:30 UTC. Victor will demonstrate the human-review tool he vibe-coded and then open the conversation to gather requirements, frustrations and creative ideas from the community. What you’ll explore The tool uses visualisation and software metrics to help engineers monitor AI-built solutions, including: - Sequence diagrams collected from end-to-end tests - Semantic mapping between tests and requirements - Structural views of packages, modules and deployment units - Complexity calculations for individual endpoints - Code City visualisations covering coupling, cohesion, complexity and size - UX regression tests - Domain and data-model diff visualisations These views are designed to stay synchronised with reality by being computed or tested against actual code and behaviour. Prompts are provided within the tool to help developers ask an AI agent to bring selected capabilities into their own projects. Before attending, try the five-minute first demo or second demo, and watch Victor’s earlier Devoxx Antwerp walkthrough. This interactive demo and follow-up discussion is aimed at software engineers and other practitioners exploring agentic engineering. Victor brings two decades of software engineering experience and has trained developers and architects from more than 150 companies. Registered attendees will receive the Zoom link. A YouTube livestream and recording will also be available. Register for this event
