Join us for August's Joomla User Group London (#JUGL) meetup — an evening with this year's student developers shipping real work on Joomla, mentored through Herman Peeren's programmes.

Krishna Gandhi — Keeping the translator in the loop

Google Summer of Code 2026 student.

Machine translation gives you a draft in seconds, but every correction a volunteer translator makes is thrown away the moment they save. Krishna's project keeps them — distilling corrections into reusable rules (preferred terms, tone, names to leave untranslated) that feed the next translation, so it starts getting your community's terminology right. He'll run the whole loop live on a Joomla 6 site.

Project: gsoc26_translator_feedback

Adarsh Dubey — Making the Joomla backend more responsive

Joomla Academy 2026 student. (Talk title to be confirmed.)

Adarsh's project brings declarative partial updates to the Joomla backend — refreshing just the part of the page that changed instead of reloading the whole thing, for a faster, smoother admin experience.

Project: ja26_ajaxified_backend

A possible third 'surprise' speaker is to be confirmed.

When

Tuesday 18 August 2026 · 19:00–21:00 BST (18:00–20:00 UTC) · online.
Krishna opens the evening, Adarsh follows, alongside the usual introductions, news and social wrap-up.
