My First Linux Community Meetup

Hey Folks

Good Day...

First of all This Blog is Slightly Differnt Comparing to my Previous Blog , Coz I Wrote full of technical stuff or my learniing stuffs.
In this Blog I wrote about my first experience in Linux Community Meetup.
It's very Intersting Let's see How it goes from start to end

Introduction about ILUGC :

In this Introduction they talked about when and where the Linux Community meetup will held and what time will start.
And then about Mailing list , so we need to Subscribe to mailing list , It is like a group chat . When we mail to one person all others can see it through Mailing List .
Lastly about Matrix , It is like Whatsapp or Telegram group chat . They requested to join in both.

First Talk - Google's Developer Verification Policy:

These points are my summary or key takeaways from first talk
Google's new 2027 policy makes identity verification mandatory for all Android developers to stop fake apps. Sideloading apps from outside Google Play will be restricted with extra safety steps for users. To install unverified apps, users must enable developer mode, restart their phone, and wait 24 hours. After the 24-hour wait, they can use Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to install the app immediately. These rules will hurt open-source projects like F-Droid because they cannot verify every developer. F-Droid says this policy could end their project since they do not control individual developer keys. Alternative app stores may disappear if Google becomes the only gatekeeper for all Android apps. This change makes Android safer but also less open for free and independent software developers.g

Before the Second talk all the participants gave the Self Introduction about themselves , Profession , How they came inside the Linux World.

After that the volunteer introduced a New Challenge in one website called *W3.challs * .The challenge is nothing what are the differnt way to read a text in the file.

Second Talk - Why Playwright Despite of Selenium:

This talk is given by one of the audience , He is working on Automation . He used to work in Playwright tool.

These points are my summary or key takeaways from Second talk

Playwright has auto-waiting built-in, so tests do not fail when elements load slowly, while Selenium needs manual waits. Playwright supports parallel test execution natively, making tests run much faster on multiple browsers at once. It works with all modern browsers including Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit using a single API, while Selenium needs different drivers for each. Playwright also has built-in assertions, screenshots, videos, and API testing, so you do not need extra tools like Selenium does.

for last 30 minutes the discussion , Questions and answes went on . From my side I asked one question which is the best developer distribution in Linux? and I got the answer for that

You know any of the best developer distributor in Linux ?If you please let me know in comment section .Right now I am using mint-cinnamon If there is better distribution I can move to that for better efficieny in my work.

SO, That's all about my first community meetup , I think it is Nice collaboration with working professionals ,students .
