 really happen to see so many here. So it's my honor to introduce Pratik, our Senior Vice President of Product Development here at Intuit, and he leads the Developer Experience Team that is responsible for Argo. And I'll leave the work. Thank you. Wow, first of all, can you hear me? Yep. All right, perfect. So welcome, Argonauts, to our two days of fun learning. And actually, it's amazing to see all of you in person. This is our second official ArgoCon. We had our inaugural one last year, all virtual, and it was just amazing to connect, even though it was virtual with all of you. So I'm actually looking forward to seeing a whole lot of you over the next two days. First of all, I'd like to wish a very warm welcome to all of our maintainers, contributors, users, and sponsors, you know, so please welcome to this event. And this day was actually added as, because a lot of you requested this day last year. So what we heard last year is we needed one day to actually focus on building the community, actually getting more hands-on with workshops and learning a whole lot. So this community day, of course, tomorrow we'll be launching and you will hear a lot more about Argo from all of the other speakers, but today it's all about you. It's about actually bringing this community together, learning from each other, learning from the teams that are working on Argo actively, but also actually to figure out how you can all help to grow the community. I have been part of the Argo community since its inception. As most of you will know, Argo was actually incubated at a company called Aplatics, which was then later acquired by Intuit, and we have continued to foster and grow this community. Argo is used extensively at Intuit for all of our production workloads, and we continue to contribute heavily to it. So actually seeing all of you actually is amazing for me personally, and it's really been very humbling to see this journey and the community grow and the project really, really prosper. So there's a couple of things that I would like to essentially let you know, right? We are, this day is about three things. We really, really want you to focus on one, informing the community. So welcome, all of you, by the way. As you can see, this is just a small snapshot of all of you and all of our end users that are actually using this, right? And as I said, this is a moment for all of us to come together as a community. So there are a couple of things that I'd like to focus on, the three things. One, today is all about informing the community. You're all a part of this community. You actually work on it every day. I'm hoping that you work on it every day as part of your jobs. But this is actually about informing all of you about what's going on. What are the new things in the market? And I say market, by the way, because I've always thought of Argo as a product, even though it's an open source community and we've always made an open source. But the one thing that has stood out for Argo has been that we have always wanted to treat it as a product, to build it as a product, so that it's actually very easy for all of our end users to use. So our goal really is to make sure that you are informed about what's going on. Secondly, it's about strengthening the community. A large part of today will be focused on hands-on workshops where you can actually get to learn the features of the products, whether you're a new user or whether you're an advanced user, one matter, you will actually learn a lot about what's going on. But also finding new ways to actually use the products and learn from each other. So please use this time to connect with all of us, connect with all of you and actually learn about the products. And then finally, it's about growing the community. So a large part of our effort is to educate you, train you today, but also to actually help you learn about how you can contribute to the community. There's actually lots of ways that you can contribute to the community and you'll learn that today. So I'm hoping that you actually take a part in figuring out how you can contribute. There are various, various ways. You don't actually even have to write code, only code. I would love for everyone to write code, but there are all host of ways to contribute with me. So before I close off, I know I'm standing between you and workshops today. So I'd like to actually say that I'm happy to announce we have a host of new releases. So if you are paying attention, there were actually new releases that were sent up last night. And we have Argo Rollouts 1.3, Argo Workflows 3.4. So please join me, a huge round of welcome and applause. And shortly you're gonna learn about these new releases from the leads, the new features and what's coming in as we get into the course. But one thing that actually I'm very, very proud of is that as I mentioned before, we've always thought about Argo as a product. So what do products have in common? One, they're very stable, they have a regimented schedule of releases and we keep it that way. So Argo has been definitely one of the products and projects where we have made sure that the quality, the timeliness of the releases is on par with actually an actual product that we receive. I'm actually very excited to see that we continue that tradition of making sure that we have active releases going on all the time. And it's contributed by all of you. With that, I'm gonna hand it over to Henrik. But again, thank you and a warm welcome to all of you. I hope you're gonna have a great day today. Thank you. So before we get started with the workshop, I just wanna go over the schedule real quick. And also do some housekeeping rules. So here's the schedule for today. We'll be in this room the whole day for the workshops that start after the roadmap session here at 1030. We will actually divide the room up. You see that the walls are gonna come in the middle here. So we'll have two thirds on one side and one third on the other side, but it'll still be in this room. And then in the afternoon, when we had the contributor session, the contribution session, we'll open up the room and do a full room again for everyone. And then we'll round off the day with happy hour. That will be, I think the food and drinks will be served out here, but we'll also have the patio reserved out here in the back so it can mill in and out. So some housekeeping rules. There should be a security guard station. If you wanna go outside, so feel free when you need to step out and do a call. If you're eating or drinking, feel free to do that outside. And there should be a guard there. It's laid your back into the building again. When we do lunch and coffee breaks, feel free to grab the food, eat, use the tables. For lunch, there's also a seating area over by the cafeteria over in that direction. I think I'm pointing in the right direction. Someone else from Intuit, correct me if I'm wrong. There's a lot of seating there. You can sit outside. Once again, they are here to serve as well. But please don't bring any food or drinks into the conference rooms. So those of you that are drinking coffee, just hide it. Also, like I said, when we started, CNCF is asking us all to mask while we're indoors unless you're eating or drinking, which I don't like to do in the conference room. So everyone should have a mask in the conference room. Please wear a mask. There's also plenty of hand sanitizers and stuff around. So it's an extra mask is to lose one, right? So stay safe. Make sure everyone's comfortable with what you're doing. For the workshops, I see that most of you have laptops. If there are some of you that don't have laptops with you and you still want to do the workshops or if you have issues getting the workshops started, we have a stack of about a dozen or so loaner laptops that we can lend you. We will grab some deposits from you, like car key or driver's license to make sure that you don't forget to return it when you leave. But those are available if anyone needs those. And then is, are we doing the tickets for the happy hour? We are, okay. So for the happy hour at some point during the day, you will be given drink tickets for the happy hour. So I think you'll get two tickets each for a beer and wine that will be served out here as well. And I think lastly, for the workshops, I think those of you that have seen the schedule we came here know that they're gonna be parallel tracks, right? It's gonna be one CD and roll out track and one workflow and event track. So just so we know which side should be which, how many in here are interested in doing the CD and roll out workshop? Okay. And how many for the workflows and events? Okay. I think with my quick headcount, I think that roughly equates to two thirds for CD and roll out and one third for workflows. So I think, I don't know what's this feeling guys, but I think that this side here, I think it's gonna be the workflow side and this side here is gonna be the CD and roll outside. I believe that's the case. I think that was, I think that was pretty much it. Did I miss anything, Lindsey, Megan? The only other thing before you leave today you'll get your bag for tomorrow. So you won't have to go back through the vaccine verification. You'll get your ID in your bag and then you'll be out there like right into the venue tomorrow. And I'll just pour you out the lobby later today. Okay, perfect. I think that's, any questions? Wow, starting off good. So really happy to see you all here. It's really exciting. I know this was something that people asked for last year. So really excited to have this come to fruition. And I think with that, we'll leave it over to the project leads to start the day with the roadmap session.
