Closing Down Cadence Office Hours​

We have been running Office Hours sessions every month since May last year. The aim was to give the community an opportunity to speak directly with some of the Cadence core developers and experts to answer questions on particular issues you may be having. We have found that the most preferred method for community questions has been the support Slack channel so have decided to stop this monthly call.

Thanks very much to Ender Demirkayaand the Uber team for making themselves available for these sessions.

Please remember that if you have question about Cadence or are facing a specific issue then you can post your question in our #support Slack channel. If you also post the details on StackOverflow with the cadence workflow tag then there will be a searchable history for others who encounter the same issue to find a solution.

I know we are a little early this month as many people will be taking some time out for holidays.

Happy Holidays​

We'd like to wish everyone happy holidays and to thank you for being part of the Cadence community. It's been a busy year for Cadence as we have continued to build a strong, active community that works together to solve issues and generally support each other.

Let's keep going!...This is a great way to build a sustainable community.

We are sure that 2023 will be even more exciting as we continue to develop Cadence.

Cadence @ DeveloperWeek Enterprise​

DevNetwork run a series of conferences and during November Cadence was featured in at DeveloperWeek Enterprise. Ender Demirkaya and Ben Slater presented a talk called Espress Complex Business Logic as Code with Open Source Cadence!.

Cadence Meetup Postponed​

It's always great to get the community together and we had planned to run another Cadence Meetup in early November. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to get things organised so we've decided to postpone it. So please watch out for an announcement for the new Cadence meetup date.

Doordash Technnical Showcase Featuring Cadence​

Knowledge Sharing and Support​

Our Slack #support channel has been busy this month with 13 questions asked this month by 12 different community members. Six community members took time to respond to those questions which clearly shows our community is growing, collaborating and keen to share knowledge.

Please don’t forget that we encourage everyone to post questions on StackOverflow using the cadence-workflow and uber-cadence tags so that others with similar questions or issues can easily search for and find an answer.

Improving Technical Office Hours​

Over the last few months we have been holding regular monthly Office Hours meetings but they have not attracted as many participants as we would like. We would like to understand if there is something preventing people from attending (e.g perhaps the timing or dates are not convenient) so we are planning to send out a short community survey.

If you have any ideas or comments about how we can improve our community office hours sessions then please include this in your feedback or contact us in the #community Slack channel.
