About this event
If you have been hearing about AO as an onchain hyper-parallel computer and want a clearer, more practical understanding of how to actually build with it, this session is where the concepts start becoming usable. Part 2 focuses on building with AOConnect, making it a strong fit for people who are ready to move from curiosity into implementation. About the Event This event is the second half of a two-part session focused on building on AO Computer. The emphasis here is on how developers and technically curious attendees can work with AOConnect to interact with the AO ecosystem in a more hands-on way. Rather than staying at the level of broad theory, this meetup is positioned around applied learning. If Part 1 introduced the landscape, Part 2 is where attendees can deepen that understanding by looking more closely at the tooling, workflows, and development patterns that matter when building on AO. Because the event is tagged across community, networking, meetup, and social, it is not just a one-way presentation. Expect a setting that supports conversation, exchange of ideas, and connection with others who are exploring similar questions around onchain computing and hyper-parallel systems. For people new to AOConnect, this is a useful entry point into the practical side of the stack. For those already following AO, it offers a more focused space to think about how the tooling translates into real development work and collaboration. What to Expect You should expect a session that centers on practical understanding, technical discussion, and peer learning. The exact flow may vary, but the event is likely to move through the key ideas needed to understand how AOConnect fits into building on AO Computer. Topics and activities may include: A continuation of the ideas introduced in Part 1, with more emphasis on application Discussion of how AO Computer works as an onchain hyper-parallel computer in a development context Exploration of AOConnect as a tool for interacting with the system Walkthrough-style explanation of workflows, architecture, or implementation approaches Time for attendee questions, clarifications, and practical discussion Informal networking with others interested in onchain infrastructure and developer tooling This event is likely to be most valuable if you come ready to engage. Bring the questions that came up for you after first hearing about AO, especially if they relate to building, integration, system design, or how the developer experience compares to more familiar blockchain environments. Because this is Part 2, attendees who already have some context will get the most immediate value. That said, even if you are newer to the topic, the meetup format can still help you get oriented quickly through discussion and exposure to how others are thinking about the stack. Why Attend AO is a concept that gets attention because it expands how people think about computation onchain. But interest alone is not enough. What matters is understanding how the model translates into tools, workflows, and actual building decisions. This event helps bridge that gap. If you are evaluating where onchain infrastructure is going, this session gives you a more grounded lens. Instead of only hearing abstract claims, you will be in a setting focused on how developers can engage with the system through AOConnect and what that means in practice. You may leave with: A clearer picture of what AO Computer is trying to enable Better understanding of where AOConnect fits into the developer experience More confidence discussing AO with collaborators, teams, or communities New questions worth exploring in your own projects or research Connections with people who share an interest in emerging onchain systems There is also value in simply being in the room with others who care about the same technical frontier. Community-driven events often surface the kinds of practical insights that do not appear in polished summaries, especially when attendees compare assumptions, use cases, and implementation challenges. Practical Details This event takes place in person on Wednesday, June 5 at 9:00 PM GMT+8. If that time works for you, it is a strong opportunity to learn in a more interactive format than a standalone article or recorded talk can offer. Because the listing identifies this as an in-person meetup, plan for a format that is likely more conversational and relationship-driven than a purely formal presentation. That makes it especially useful if you want to ask follow-up questions, meet others in the AO community, or continue the discussion after the main session. A few useful ways to prepare: Review any notes or questions you have from Part 1, if you attended it Come with a basic sense of why AO has been framed as hyper-parallel Be ready to discuss developer tooling, architecture, or use cases Leave room for networking before or after the session If you are looking for a highly relevant, technically interesting community gathering around AO and its tooling, this is the part of the series where the ideas become more concrete. It is designed for people who want to understand not just what AO is, but how to begin building with it.
Who should attend
This is for people who want to understand AO beyond the headline and get closer to how building on it actually works. - You have been following **AO Computer** and want a more practical look at how **AOConnect** fits into the development workflow. - You attended Part 1, or already have some basic context, and want to go deeper rather than start from scratch. - You are a developer, builder, or technical operator exploring new onchain infrastructure and want to compare AO’s model to other systems you know. - You are curious about **hyper-parallel** onchain computation and want a community setting where you can ask questions and pressure-test your understanding. - You value meetups where the learning is not only in the presentation, but also in the conversations with other attendees working through similar ideas. - You are looking to meet people interested in emerging blockchain tooling, protocols, and developer ecosystems in a more direct, in-person format. If you want polished surface-level hype, this probably is not the right event. If you want clearer mental models, practical discussion, and useful conversations around building on AO, you will likely feel at home here.
