The AI Collective & Windsurf ~ Open Build
Builders, welcome. We’re teaming up with Windsurf – the AI-native IDE that’s rethinking what it means to code in flow – for a special evening designed to inspire, connect, and unlock your next creative wave.
This is the first-ever collab between The AI Collective and Windsurf, and we’re keeping it fresh, simple, and high-vibe. Expect deep conversations, spontaneous demos, peer energy, and a space where great ideas catch wind!
✨ What to Expect
A short, sharp intro from the Windsurf team to kick things off
Breakout "vibe sessions" to meet fellow devs, share ideas, and jam on projects
Curated prompts and conversation cards if you need a spark
Music, snacks, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay all night
Whether you’re exploring Windsurf for the first time or already building on it, this is your chance to get inspired – and maybe even ship something unexpected.
