What a fantastic day in Limerick! IreLUG is officially back, and the energy at TUS Coonagh Cross was incredible. 🇮🇪⚙️

It’s been a while since we’ve all gathered like this, and seeing the room full of LabVIEW peers reminds me why this community is so special. Even though a few folks had to head off early, the conversations we had were some of the most insightful yet.

The Highlights:

The Future of NI LabVIEW

 Sacha Emery : We took a deep dive into the 2026 roadmap and debated the real-world readiness of NI-Nigel AI. The consensus? The tools are changing fast, and staying connected is more important than ever.

CI/CD Session

A massive shoutout to Michael Curtin for his presentation on CI/CD for Medical Devices. It was a total blast and sparked so much conversation about how automation can empower "solo" developers to hit elite-level quality and pace.

The TUS Tour

A huge thank you to Jeffrey Ryan for giving us an insider’s tour of the TUS Coonagh facilities from PLC to Instrument controls. Seeing the labs and equipment in person added such a great practical dimension to the day.

AI & Data Strategy with YottaVolt 

Danilo Mariano for the deep dive into NI Nigel and the SystemLink walkthrough. Seeing how AI can practically assist in development—and how to actually manage that data for distributed systems

Whether you came to share a "war story," learn a new trick, or just reconnect over coffee, thank you for making the trip. This is how we grow as engineers—by sharing what we know and being curious about what we don’t.

Missing the buzz already? Stay tuned for the next one—we're just getting started!
