IBM Dev Day: Bob in Action + Hackathon '26

IBM Dev Day: Bob in Action is a free virtual event that introduces developers to IBM Bob, IBM's AI-powered development platform designed to help enterprise teams plan, execute, validate, and govern software modernization tasks across the software development lifecycle. Through expert-led sessions, participants will explore how Bob combines AI with agentic orchestration to modernize enterprise applications and improve developer productivity across IBM i and IBM Z environments. The Dev Day serves as the official preparation for the IBM Dev Day: Bob in Action Hackathon, where participants will apply what they learn to build AI-powered solutions that improve enterprise development workflows. Whether you're interested in AI, software engineering, cloud technologies, or enterprise modernization, this experience offers an opportunity to learn directly from IBM experts while building practical solutions. Wooble independently surfaces this opportunity to help developers discover high-quality industry challenges and showcase their work.
