My Experience at IIT Madras ILUGC Meetup

Recently I attended a ILUGC(Indian Linux Users Group Chennai) at IIT Madras.Honestly,most of the session felt advanced for my current level.Still,the experience was meaningful.

The meetup had three talks.The first talk was about Talos, a modern operating system for Kubernetes, covering concepts like immutable systems and infrastructure as code. Since I am still learning the basics, I could not fully understand it, but it showed how advanced real-world systems are.

The second talk focused on IRC and social computing, explaining how early chat systems helped build open-source and Linux communities. This session was easier to follow and gave insight into free software culture.

The final short talk discussed a real Linux booting issue and how it was fixed using Linux commands. This practical session was the most relatable for me as a beginner.

Although I did not understand everything, this meetup helped me realize how much more there is to learn. It motivated me to improve my fundamentals and continue exploring Linux and open-source technologies.
