One day, two deep-dive sessions. The morning takes you from what open source is to how microservice systems are designed, connected and deployed. The afternoon makes you comfortable with Git and GitHub, from your first commit to rebasing.
Microservices
Architecture & APIs
Client-server model, RESTful API design, and monolith vs microservices.
Distributed Internals
Database-per-service, Redis caching, and Kafka / RabbitMQ message queues.
Deployment & Live Project
Docker, Kubernetes orchestration, and an end-to-end project walkthrough.
Git & GitHub
Linux & VCS Basics
Terminal navigation and version control fundamentals for project tracking.
Git Core Workflow
Working tree, staging area, commit history, and ignoring untracked files.

Stop 3: about us
Meet the team
Walchand Linux Users' Group (WLUG) is the open source club of Walchand College of Engineering, Sangli. We are students who use, build and promote Linux and open source software, and we have been spreading it around campus since 2003.
Our goal is simple: make open source technology approachable for every student, through hands-on sessions, club services and events that take you from your first terminal command to real-world tools.
