After months of wrangling bugs and sprint deadlines, Code & Cocktails is my oasis â a rare night where the only crashing I worry about is into laughter. As a co-organizer, the best part? The brilliant devs, designers, and tech dreamers I get to meet, all wired by a shared love for tech... and maybe a good drink. Also, a note to all attending: the crown of Code & Cocktails Chess Champion shall rest firmly on my head. Come for the vibes, stay for the challenge and remember checkmate is personal. đ„âïž
