London R | Meetup | Jan 2026
TidyTuesday 2026-01-27 · 23:00

Join R-Ladies Ottawa for a casual evening of programming on Tuesday, January 27th. We'll be participating in TidyTuesday, a weekly data visualization challenge organized by the R for Data Science community.

What is TidyTuesday?

Every week, a new dataset is posted online on the TidyTuesday GitHub repo, and folks from around the world create data visualizations using the dataset. It's an opportunity to put your programming skills into practice using real-world data in a way that's fun! It's also a great way for everyone to learn from each other, by sharing their visualizations and code.

What will the dataset be?

Even we don't know that (yet)! We'll have to wait until the day before the event to know what data we'll be working with. If you're interested in seeing some past datasets, take a look at the examples below, or visit the TidyTuesday GitHub repo to see all of the datasets dating back to 2018.

Examples from past TidyTuesdays:

Do I have to use R?

No! You can use any programming language or visualization software that you want. In fact, Python users from around the globe participate in "TyDyTuesday" on a weekly basis.

Who is this event for?

No previous programming experience is required to participate, and we'll have experienced programmers in the room who can help you get started (or unstuck), if needed.

...But if you want to get the most out of the event, a good way to prepare is to watch the recording of the introduction to data visualization workshop we hosted back in 2024. :)

What should I bring?

  • Please bring a laptop so you can code along. We recommend that you have RStudio or another IDE (such as VS Code or Positron) installed ahead of time, but we can help you get one installed if needed!
  • Come ready to learn, share, and contribute to a safe and welcoming community!

How will this event work?

  • First few minutes of the event: Introductions, and taking a look at the dataset together as a group.
  • Time to create a data visualization using the language or software of your choice, either on your own or with a (new) friend! Grab a free snack while you're at it :)
  • Last \~30 minutes of the event: Show and tell session for anyone who would like to share their creation with the group.

What else do I need to know?

This event (like all R-Ladies events) is totally FREE to attend.

The event will take place at Bayview Yards, which is located just a few steps away from the Bayview O-Train station. There is also a free parking lot available for those who are driving. You can find us in the "Training Room", which is on the second floor of the Bayview Yards building.

This is an in-person event with limited space! Please only RSVP if you are able to attend in-person!

***Please note that the mission of R-Ladies is to increase gender diversity in the R community. This event is intended to provide a safe space for women and gender minorities. We ask for male allies to be invited by and accompanied by a woman or gender minority.***

We’re grateful to be part of the Bayview Meetups initiative and extend our thanks to Bayview Yards for generously providing the venue space.

Who is this for?

​Students, developers, and anyone interested in using Large Language Models (LLMs) to build real software solutions with ** Python.

Tired of vibe coding with AI tools? Want to actually understand and own your code, instead of relying on black-box magic? This session shows you how to build LLM systems properly, with full control and clear engineering principles. Who is leading the session?

​The session is led by Dr. Stelios Sotiriadis, CEO of Warestack, Associate Professor and MSc Programme Director at Birkbeck, University of London, specialising in cloud computing, distributed systems, and AI engineering.

Stelios holds a PhD from the University of Derby, completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Toronto, and has worked on industry and research projects with Huawei, IBM, Autodesk, and multiple startups. Since moving to London in 2018, he has been teaching at Birkbeck. In 2021, he founded Warestack, building software for startups around the world. What we’ll cover?

​A hands-on introduction to building software with LLMs using Python, Ollama, and LiteLLM, including:

  • ​How LLMs, embeddings, and agents work.
  • ​Calling local models with Ollama or cloud models (OpenAI, Gemini and more).
  • ​Using LiteLLM for custom prompts and tool-calling.
  • ​Building simple agents from scratch.
  • Introduction to RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).
  • ​Working with vector databases (ChromaDB) and vector similarity search library (FAISS).
  • ​Storing, searching, and retrieving embeddings.
  • ​Introduction to Streamlit for interactive data apps.
  • ​End-to-end examples you can run on your own machine.

​This session focuses on theory, fundamentals and real code you can re-use.

​Why LiteLLM?

LiteLLM gives you low-level control to build custom LLM solutions your own way, without a heavy framework like LangChain, so you understand how everything works and design your own architecture. A dedicated LangChain session will follow for those who want to go further.

​What are the requirements?

​Bring a laptop with Python installed (Windows, macOS, or Linux), along with Visual Studio Code or a similar IDE, with at least 10GB of free disk space and 8GB of RAM.

This space is needed for running local models during the workshop.If you don’t have a suitable laptop, please contact Stelios ([email protected]) before registering.

​What is the format?

​A 3-hour live session with:

  • ​Interactive theory blocks
  • ​Hands-on coding
  • ​Step-by-step exercises
  • ​Small group support
  • ​Three 10-minute breaks
  • ​Q&A and class quizzes

​This is a highly practical, hands-on class focused on code and building working LLM systems.

​What are the prerequisites?

​A good understanding of programming with Python is required (basic to intermediate level). I assume you are already comfortable writing Python scripts.

​What comes after?

​Participants will receive an optional mini capstone project with one-to-one personalised feedback.

​Is it just one session?

​This is the first session in a new sequence on applied AI, covering agents, RAG systems, vector databases, and production-ready LLM workflows. Later sessions will dive deeper into topics such as embeddings with deep neural networks, LangChain, advanced retrieval, and multi-agent architectures.

You can decide afterwards whether you’d like to join future sessions.

​How many participants?

​To keep this interactive, only 15 spots are available. Please register as soon as possible.

1st Talk: Title: Breaking Free with Open Standards: OpenTelemetry and Perses for Observability Description: Observability is the backbone of modern cloud-native applications, but many organizations find themselves locked into proprietary tools with rising costs, rigid ecosystems, and limited flexibility. In this talk, we’ll explore how open observability standards like OpenTelemetry for instrumentation and Perses for monitoring-as-code are transforming the landscape by enabling vendor-neutral, scalable, and future-proof observability stacks. We’ll start with an introduction to OpenTelemetry, covering how to get started, instrument applications, and provide developer-friendly abstractions for seamless auto-instrumentation. From there, we’ll dive into Perses, a CNCF Sandbox project that brings open, declarative, and portable dashboards to observability. By building on these open standards, organizations gain the freedom to mix and match storage, visualization, and analytics tools without being tied to a single vendor. Join this session to learn how OpenTelemetry and Perses can help you scale observability, stay in control of your data, and ensure developers get the insights they need exactly when they need them.

Bio: Kasper is a CNCF Ambassador, former KubeCon+CloudNativeCon Co-Chair, Golden Kubestronaut, KCD Organizer, and CNCG Group Organizer. He co-founded Cloud Native Nordics to unite meetups across the region.
