C

Hey everybody, it's so good to be here: I am like right. Outside registration, the property people are behind me lining up getting ready to go. uh I'm excited, we've been practicing, we've been rehearsing, we've been going through this for a while and yeah look up, um I'm going to start back to you for the moment and you'll join me in a little bit. I'll give you a little bit more information, but back together.

B

Yeah, thank you so much Damo. We will be checking in with you uh throughout the event. um So let's talk a little bit I think about how some of this stuff is going to work. So, throughout the day we are going to um have things going on on a bunch of different content stages, both in person and online.

B

If you are watching us anywhere other than githubuniverse.com now's, a really good time to head over to githubuniverse.com, uh go ahead and start like a count of how many times I say that, for some sort of you know drinking uh game, if you want it could be water, I think for us, it'll be water or coffee, but go to githubuniverse.com right now and go ahead and register, because, even though we are streaming the keynote live on all of our social media channels.

B

After that, the only way to view the rest of the day's content is going to be at say it with me.

B

A

Now, if you are going to want to register and you're going to have to want to register because we'll have over 100 sessions across five content tracks, so if you have not registered yet it's quick, easy and free! That's.

B

Right, you can register now and.

B

Buy a ticket to attend in-person tomorrow, it wanna, you know, come join us and you definitely do absolutely.

A

And coming up on today's schedule is a deep dive into code spaces on the main stage. I'm.

B

Super excited about that absolutely.

A

B

Also, a session on how GitHub uses GitHub to secure GitHub I, like the meta-ness of all.

A

That I know right yeah and there are dozens of virtual sessions like how co-pilot has impacted developer happiness and how we help develop a game and that preserving an endangered indigenous language. That's.

B

A

B

One I know that this is going to be kind of like trying to choose between your shoulder and a Sophie's choice of sorts, but one of these sessions is standing out to you, which one really has you excited.

A

You know it's going to be co-pilot. Co-Pilot, copilot I, think that this is an amazing set of tools for developers. I think one of the most powerful things about co-pilot is it's going to help people who are starting their software developer Journey, get there faster yeah, because I remember when I started as a developer and there's like all these dependencies and all these things I have to install with copilot it's I'm.

A

Sorry co-pilot is is the AI tool that is used to help you get started with with software faster and so whether you're programming in Ruby or in Java or in either the supported languages. It's going to give you a bit of a edge in getting started. So what about you? Christina, yeah.

B

No I, love, copilot I. Think copilot is fantastic. We're going to be talking a lot about that throughout the next two days. I know GitHub code spaces I'm really excited about those sessions. If you're not familiar GitHub code spaces is basically a way to bring your local develop environment but access it anywhere. So I can be on my iPad, like you've got an iPad set up right here right.

A

B

Can have a very powerful machine and the cloud connected to all of your repositories with.

A

B

Extensions that you want the code, you need access to.

A

B

It anywhere I love that so that's really really great. Now.

A

All of that and much more is coming up, but right now, let's talk about where we are this morning, yeah.

D

A

At the uber voice, Center for the Arts in downtown San Francisco. Now there were lots of reasons that we decided to choose this location. This is is where so many amazing products have been announced to the public and we're announcing a lot of cool products as well. But in many ways the ybca, where we are right now, is a place that is dedicated to the Arts and at GitHub.

A

We really feel at kinship with all of the Arts and in fact, whether your tools are a paint and a canvas or a hammer and a chisel or a keyboard and a mouse. You are creating art and we really believe that art creates the future and we want to enable artists all over the world to create a bright future. There's so many people watching now who have not become developers, and we want you through GitHub Universe, to become developers. We want you to join us in this amazing Enterprise of making the world better.

B

Absolutely- and we are out here this is the East Garden part of what we're calling uh The Hub on the garden stage. So if you're with us in person, you can see that's what that looks like and to the left is the Hub and we're going to give you a little bit of a tour of that in a bit and then we've got the main Stage Theater. That's where we're going to be having the keynote later this morning, that is Mona's stage, and that is right behind us.

B

And um and um if you want to know what's going on, you can check out the event schedule and you can plan for the sessions that you want to watch at githubuniverse.com. We've also uh we're going to be talking about some of the tweets and things that we see coming in from you guys. uh That's happening that we've seen online too, so we've got a lot of really good stuff coming up um and uh we're going to get a look at more of what's happening around here soon.

B

A couple of minutes ago we saw a shot of people who were making their way into the theater. Now we're going to meet up with our partner, our Roman correspondent Damo, who is outside of Mona Sage demo, welcome. How are you I.

C

Am amazing yeah this is such a beautiful day. It's been raining the last couple of days, so I'm getting the sun right in my eyes here. So excuse me if I squint I also realized I didn't introduce myself. So how rude of me, my name, is Damian Brady and I lead. The developer advocacy team at GitHub uh I'm excited to be here at an in-person event, a lot of people wandering around having their coffee having their breakfast getting excited for what's happening at the moment and I'm joined by two attendees and two hovers here Kasia.

C

How are you I'm.

D

Great thank you for having me here.

C

And Abby good to see you.

E

Good to see you too great to be here so.

C

This is the first in-person GitHub Universe event for a little. While are you excited to be here in person for a change? Oh.

D

This is like super, exciting event: I think we all were waiting for it for a very long time, few years to have in-person events, so yeah super happy super exciting time, and uh the fact that we have so many customers, maintainers open source and we can connect with the community I think that's like the best out of it and.

C

You are in the organization that deals with our customers, Enterprise customers, correct.

D

Yes, so I work on the product team and I, obviously, growth for GitHub, Enterprise cloud and GitHub Advanced security. That's.

C

Amazing and Abby you've been here for a couple of days a day or so, but you you work with our maintainer community, correct yeah,.

E

I, do so I run our open source, maintainer programs, and it's so nice to see so many of them here in person and I can like actually touch them. It's great. It.

C

Is there's also so a few different things around for the people who are in person at this event, there's also a maintainer Stars kind of package package walkway something a Walk of Stars. You know those things um down there as well, so I'm looking forward to going and browsing the the maintainers and the stars all right number one question I have to ask both of you. What is the thing that you are looking forward to the most from this GitHub Universe Cartier.

D

Definitely there will be a lot of like amazing product announcements, so I'm super curious and super excited to hear what we are coming up uh for upcoming months and years and the feedback we will collect from our customers and audience absolutely.

C

I've seen a few of those announcements: I cannot wait until they're public. What about you, Abby I'm.

E

Really excited to highlight a lot of our open source maintainers here so on. Thursday I'll be hosting Spotlight on maintainers and we'll hear from them directly and to learn more about the humans behind open source.

C

Yeah, that's amazing that and that's what it's all about right. It's about the communities and the developers. That's what github's all about you can feel the energy here. uh You know we're going to keep going. We are going to throw back to the uh to the Garden stage in just a minute, but I just want to point out a couple of things behind me: you've seen the uh inverter cat. This is Mona.

C

This is our mascot at GitHub, this beautiful, shiny, uh I, don't know what it's made of it's like perspex, it's a beautiful Archway that everybody can walk through in a minute, we'll clear this. So we can let people take some pictures over to my left is the Hub and we will walk through that. A little bit later behind us is the registration desk and I'm not entirely sure you might be able to see a couple of tentacles yeah flowing down to the ground. I'm gonna! Ask them what they're doing with those afterwards.

C

Surely they don't need them after this event and I think they look great on my house, um that'd be okay, I'm, sure yeah, um so we're going to walk you through the Hub a little bit later, we're going to walk you through a few other places, we're going to show you the shop where you can buy some things and, of course, if you're watching at home, you are going to get ready and excited for the keynote uh and then go to githubuniverse.com to watch all of the other sessions and get ready for some exciting announcements.

C

But for the moment, while we get ready, I'm gonna throw back to And1 at the Garden stage and I'll talk to you a little bit later. Alright see you later everyone, oh.

A

All right, thank you. Damo such a great tour I calling dips on those tentacles, though I'm going to install those on my backyard. I think it'll be an amazing addition to my pool and, of course we love to hear from you on Twitter are on the universe, 22 discussions page, you know one of the things I love the most about GitHub is that we use what we build. So we have a product called GitHub discussions that, hopefully all of you know about and we're using discussions to power.

A

The conversations that we're having at GitHub universe and I can tell you that people in the twitterverse are getting very excited. So, let's take a look at what some of the people are saying right now,.

A

All right, so we have a couple of tweets that we're going to show uh there's Anthony Bartolo, who has an amazing shot of the stage, and we also have a shot on the right hand of Martin Woodward, our very own Martin, who looks a little bit taller in that picture. I wonder what's going on there and then we have Andrea, who is showing that the Latin American GitHub stars are very much represented here. So this is a lot of amazing things happening on Twitter all right.

A

So if you're just joining us, this is the GitHub Universe pre-show and we're only a little less than nine minutes away from the start of the keynote.

A

And so, if you need to take a bathroom break or get a snack or do whatever I highly recommend that you do this, because the keynote is jam-packed with amazing content, you don't want to miss a second of the keynote, so you have a little bit of time uh go ahead and do what you got to do and make sure that you're back here to make sure that you can hear everything that we're going to announce that during the keynote now, if you've been with us since the beginning of the pre-show, you might have noticed that my co-host Christina isn't with me right now.

A

So a few of the cool points of the stage have gone down. I must admit, but I'm here to let you know that Christina is heading backstage to give us a preview of what's in the store for the keynote, while Damien gets ready for his part of the kennel. That's right that amazing Australian accent isn't just for out here. You're gonna actually hear him during the stage and you'll see more of Damien Christina later all right.

A

So, in the meantime, here's a bit more of what to expect today after the Keynote, all right, Community AI secured in Cloud. Those are the four things that underline the four tracks that make up GitHub universe, but because we're GitHub- and we like to be a little bit extra- we added a fifth track that is full of live stream content from the main stage.

A

Now after the keynote which is going to be broadcast on all of the tracks, because we want you to make sure that you get all the information that's going to be in the keynote after the kingdom is done, you can go track by track and get access to all of the content. That is most valuable to you, and what's amazing, about this event, is that if you go to githubuniverse.com, you can build your own schedule and I want to let you know that you're going to want to build your own schedule right.

A

There are so many dozens and dozens and dozens of amazing sessions going on at GitHub Universe. You can't see them all I mean. Maybe you have like a lot of monitors. You can watch them all, but you couldn't consume it. So what you want to do is go to githubuniverse.com and then select the sessions that you want to watch and then you can build your own schedule for the entire show and there's going to be sessions on teaching machine learning.

A

It's going to be a deep dive into our AI pair programmer co-pilot there's going to be such as own security, and if you are in software development, you are in the security business, so you want to check out those and how to eliminate credential leaks and so much more.

A

So you want to make sure that you can check it all out on GitHub universe.com and again, if you have not registered yet register, you want to make sure that you're in the number and that you're able to get access to all of the amazing information that we are sharing at GitHub Universe registration is quick. It's easy and it's free all right. So, let's check in on Christina who is backstage at Mona's theater, so hey Christina! What's going on back there and what's the mood what's about just a few minutes, left to go.

A

All right, I, don't know if we're having Christina yet so again, if you are just joining us, we are at githubuniverse.com I'm, anwan, Simmons I am an engineering manager at GitHub from Houston Texas I'm responsible for the sponsors team.

A

uh By the way GitHub sponsors will be mentioned in the keynote, and we're going to share some amazing announcements about what we're doing uh Wicked, Hub sponsors, but there's so much more we're going to talk about co-pilot, which is our AI programming tool, which is meant to be your best friend, while you're, creating all the amazing things that you're doing with code, but not only co-pilot. We have code spaces, which is your development environment.

A

In a box where you can easily get started with something that you're working on right now without worrying about dependencies and other things you need to install or if you wanted to try, maybe a new language. Maybe you want to try react, or maybe you want to try to pick up some other language. Well, GitHub, a co-pilot is is just an amazing. Our co-pilot and code spaces are actually both amazing tools that I actually think really work together.

A

uh In an amazing way, all right- and so there's just so many things that are happening um by the way I am on the garden stage, and so that means that you're watching me live right now from all around the world, but you are also there are people here. So if you're here in the garden say hey what's up, yay I want to thank all of you for taking time to be here in person at githubuniverse.com, so I think that we have Christine now Christina. Are you ready to go? What's going on.

A

Okay, maybe not maybe not all right, go ahead. Christina.

A

A

Hey Christina can, can you hear me all right all right, so we're waiting to bring it Christina by the way I'm going to go ahead and not bury the lead, uh Christina gonna be talking with uh with Kyle, uh whose amazing part of GitHub and you're going to learn more about what he's excited about for the show and she's going to give you a sneak peek of what's going to happen uh behind the stage so now Christina. Do we have you not yet all right? Well, you know there are lots of amazing.

B

Things well, look at and one.

A

B

Saw that I left the stage for a bit, but I had to sneak backstage because I'm actually on the keynote Backstage on monaster stage check all out. All this excitement happening around behind me and I found a special guest, Mr Kyle Daigle now Kyle I think your technical title is VP of strategy. It GitHub yeah, okay, but here's. The real secret Kyle actually makes GitHub run so like without Kyle. Nothing would be happening, but from what I understand you're, not part of the keynote.

B

So what's going on you here for moral support, what what's going on yeah.

F

I mean a little bit of moral support. We've been working on the keynote for weeks now, we're very excited to share a bunch of news been in rehearsals the past three days, so I'm here to make sure everything goes off without a hitch and just sort of excited to be back here with everyone. This is a huge huge group of people. Dozens of hubbers that made this work and Thomas is going to kick us off in about 15 minutes. It looks like yeah.

B

Yeah, no, it's gonna be fantastic, so Kyle. What what number of uh GitHub universes is this for! You.

F

um I think seven or eight I've been at every Universe, thus far so yeah we started small. We started off in these big warehouses where we brought everything in and now we're at the beautiful yerba, buena Gardens and the theater here. uh So it's been fun to see how things have changed and evolved over time and the production quality. The excitement of what we're shipping and bringing to everyone is only going up up up yeah.

B

No 100 and and I have to say, like it's really nice um to be back in person again. Isn't it like? Isn't it great to see that energy and to have all that around us? Yes,.

F

I mean after doing two fully remote universes and doing these very fun videos that were very different than being in person. It's so great to be back in person. There's nothing quite like having a full Auditorium full of people who are excited to hear about what we're gonna ship, the hubbers that are here. It's good to see our co-workers again. You know github's a remote company as well, and so we don't always get to see everyone so having everyone together, there's a huge amount of energy.

F

The musical act is awesome right now, but you can't quite hear back there. So having everyone back is is awesome. This is this is great. It's great to see you in person, too I'm.

B

So excited to see you in person, because most of the time I just see you resume meetings and I'm like yes.

B

So what are you most excited about this year and what's going on yeah.

F

Yeah I mean this is a jam-packed universe, so right off the gate, we have a lot of big announcements. I don't want to spoil anything but I mean it's clear. You know we have a lot coming through AI we're bringing a lot of features to everyone.

F

So if there's some things that you've wanted to use in GitHub, but you couldn't quite use on your own yet hopefully we're gonna, surprise and Delight you in just a few minutes here uh and then later today, at 3 38 Pacific I have a session where we're sharing even more information about the experiments and the cool things that we're bringing to GitHub. So a lot going on, don't click away, keep watching, there's a lot to come.

B

Absolutely stay watching I've seen a preview, your session you're, like don't, don't understand it, you're doing great stuff all right. This is amazing. We're going to head back to the Garden stage and check in with you guys and I'll, see you later. Thank you. Kyle.

F

A

All right, thank you, Christina and thanks Kyle and hello to everyone out there and I am N1. Simmons I am one of the three hosts that are here for GitHub Universe. If you're just joining us, that's who I am and you overheard uh Christina Warren, who goes by film girl uh talking to Kyle our BP strategy at GitHub and, of course, we're hearing. So many things here live uh in San Francisco at the ybca, but we'd love to hear from all of you on Twitter are on the universe.

A

22 discussions page and I can already tell you that there are people in the twitterverse who are already getting very excited. So let's take a look at what people are saying uh right now, all right. uh Some people are commenting on uh the the tentacles that I mentioned. There are people who are really amazed about the setup. uh Just like a few people are registering, which is amazing and oh I, think somebody has found a Martin Woodward uh who you will hear more about later.

A

So there's a lot of amazing things that people are already posting and tweeting about GitHub universe,.

A

All right, and so we have the content tracks at universe and those are Community security, Ai and cloud, and so those four core content tracks are where you want to tune in about GitHub universe and then there's a fifth track of everything that is going on at the main stage, and there are just so much great content that we've curated for each of these topics, all right and here's a look at what's coming up across okay. So now, actually we are now at about five minutes until the keynote kicks off.

A

It's just amazing, there's so many cool things that we've already shared and there are already things that are coming up for the cleanup all right. We are going to go back to Christina who's backstage at the keynote that it's about to begin, hey, what's up partner, how you doing Christina.

A

All right, I think we're still waiting for Christina I do want to share with all of you a little bit of a behind the scenes. Look at what we've been doing, especially over the past couple days, to get here now. It is now an amazing day in San Francisco in San Francisco. There is not a cloud in the sky, but like literally last night, it was freezing. It was raining.

A

I thought that I was going to have to uh be holding an umbrella, uh but thankfully I did not have to do that, because uh the universe really wants Universe to be a thing, and so I'm really appreciative of all the things. So whatever that people did, maybe some people like burned, incense or lit a candle, but thank you because I could not have asked for a more amazing day for the first day of GitHub Universe.

A

By the way, there are two days at GitHub universe, so you're gonna have to settle in this is just day one, and so we're going to have a keynote session coming up after this, and then there is a hope. Bunch of content remember go to GitHub universe.com, and one of the most powerful parts of that website is that you can build your own schedule. There is way way too much content for you to just observe it all at once. So what you can do is go to githubuniverse.com and you can build your schedule.

A

You can go through the tracks. You can pick what you want to look at and you can also make sure that GitHub Universe works for you. We have a lot to share with you, but we want to make sure that you have enough agency to make Universe the experience that works for you and don't worry about missing something right.

A

You can build your schedule, but you can also make sure that everything that you can't see during the show will be available online so again make sure that you go over the githubuniverse.com to build your own personal Universe experience and again you can make sure that all of the five tracks that we have going on are aligned with what you're interested in so again.

A

There is no need to be nervous if you're going to miss something, because everything that we are showing at GitHub universe will be available on demand all right, Christina I think we have you you're. Are you there partner all right so Christina? What's up with you.

B

All right, thank you so much anwan, okay, so I did something I, don't think. I was supposed to do, which is I've snuck, actually behind me, like I'm, actually backstage right now right before we could kind of get on to the keynote stage, so I'm gonna actually maybe see if I can sneak up on stage in a couple of minutes, but I just wanted to kind of give uh give you all in the audience a little bit of kind of some insights into how we put all this together.

B

So this is GitHub Universe 2022, as we've mentioned before. This is a hybrid event, so we wanted to kind of bring people who are joining us online. Give you a little bit of a peek at what you can see happening here at Europe Buena, that even people in person aren't actually able to see, and so I am in the wings right now of what you're calling Mona stage and in like 15 minutes, 10 minutes I'm, not sure what the exact timing is. This is where the keynote is going to be happening.

B

We've got so many great announcements coming up. I'm super excited to finally be able to talk about. um I spoke with Kyle Daigle earlier, and he also has session coming up later this afternoon, which is going to be showing off some of the things happening in the future with GitHub. So we've got some things that are sort of you know future facing later in the afternoon, we're going to get some great product announcements and updates in just a few minutes.

B

We have great stuff from our communities that we're going to be hearing from there's so many good sessions. So much good stuff happening right now, and this space is actually amazing. So for people who are in the auditorium who are going to be able to view this keynote live, there is a band on stage and they are doing something I think with code and we've got like a cello player. It's actually really really beautiful and just a fantastic experience.

B

We're going to cut to that I think in just a couple of minutes, so you can get a little bit of a flavor of what that is. But this is just sort of what we're trying to bring to the GitHub Universe 2022 uh you know set. This is what we're trying to accomplish. It's actually like immediately to my right. This actually I think the cello case, which is really cool. We've got all amazing crew members back here.

B

Everybody who's getting all this together, you'd be surprised by how much goes into putting on a production like this. It actually takes hundreds of crew members and lots of people behind the scenes. I want to give a shout out to my lighting crew and my cameraman and my great producer, who are keeping everything up and running people and Juan and Damien who've been doing great jobs, keeping us up to date on things to the desk. We want to hear your feedback and you can do that in a couple of ways.

B

So the first is probably the easiest you can use Twitter and just use the hashtag GitHub Universe. Let us know your thoughts, let us know what you think about all the things that we're putting together and you can also use the GitHub discussions feature and go to Universe 22 and you can give feedback there as well now what's great about this, is for each of the sessions and all the sessions are available at githubuniverse.com. So again, I said this is a drinking game.

B

Every time you hear me say that take a take a drink, hopefully water, because otherwise you know it's like 9 30 in the morning and you're already gonna be like a little bit out there, so so take some of your water or your coffee or kombucha or whatever, but go to GitHub universe.com, see those session schedules and, as I said, each session actually will have a discussions chat available in it.

B

Now what's great about this, is you can go to the discussions area and you can actually have conversations with the experts, the people who actually make the things that you were learning about or want to know more information about and the people who are actually giving those sessions. So this is a really great way to get your feedback get questions answered. If you want to join us in person, uh I think we still have some tickets available.

B

So if you want to join us tomorrow here at ybca, you can do that and in just a couple of minutes, I think what I'm going to do.

B

I'm looking at I'm, getting some various uh information from people, I think I'm going to try to sneak on stage and see if we can actually show what's going on and so uh I'm kind of kind of have an idea should I should I go ahead and try to okay I'm, getting a note from my producer hold off on that a minute, but um that's what we're going to be doing we're going to be sneaking on stage I'm going to see if I can see uh if I can get on stage without anybody noticing too much uh who am I kidding I've got a camera crew with me, it's kind of hard to miss, but this is still something that I'm completely all about doing.

B

So this is, if you can see this sort of beautiful backstage area. This is what the audience is seeing, but from a different perspective and I'm really loving that we're able to bring you this backstage content. We've also got all of our speakers who are going to be in the keynote in the wings here. So if you can see like straight across I, don't know how good that camera is getting in.

B

You can actually see the the speaker is getting ready to go out on stage I've seen the previews of the keynote I've seen the drive on rehearsals, it's gonna be a really really amazing event. I'm so excited for all of you to do this, and now let me see if I can actually get uh get back here. Should we see? Should we see if we can get back here, yeah all right, let's see if I can actually do a little bit of a can, because I want you to see wow. The audience is here.

B

This is really filled out. This is really really good.
