🗓 Tuesday, 6 October 7:00-9:00 pm
📍 SR14 @ COM3-01-23
🥤 Refreshments will be served!
Want to learn how to typeset papers and create professional-looking documents, but find LaTeX too unwieldy? Do you find typing mathematical equations in word processors cumbersome?
Join us for an introduction to Typst, a modern alternative to LaTeX that lets you create polished documents using a simple markup language. You'll learn the basics of Typst syntax, add elements such as tables, images, and equations, customise document formatting, and more. By the end of the workshop, you’ll be able to create clean, professional documents, including reports, résumés, cheat sheets, and even slide decks.

Hackerschool Week 9: Spec-Driven Development with Google Antigravity
📅 Tuesday, 13 October, 7:00–9:00 pm
📍 SR14 @ COM3-01-23
🥤 Refreshments will be served!
Ever wondered how you could turn live NUS campus data into your own interactive application?
Join us for a hands-on workshop with Google Cloud, where you'll build your own 3D interactive map of NUS, complete with live campus data and animated shuttle buses moving around campus! 🚌
Using Google Antigravity, we will explore Spec-Driven Development in VS Code, where you get to set up architectural rules and API contracts, then guide the AI agent to generate, verify, and debug each layer of the application.
Along the way, you'll build a 3D campus map using Next.js, MapLibre GL JS and Three.js, visualise building energy usage with data from the NUS Digital Twin API, and track NUS shuttle buses in real time using the NUS NextBus API. By the end of the workshop, you'll have a full-stack application ready to deploy on Vercel! 🚀
After the hands-on workshop, we'll also have a panel discussion with engineers from Google, followed by an opportunity to network and chat with the speakers about software engineering, careers at Google, and their experiences in the industry. 👀
💻 Before the session:
Please bring a laptop with Node.js 18+ and VS Code installed.
🤖 Using Antigravity:
SoC students should activate their NUS-provided Gemini Enterprise & Antigravity access here before the session.
Non-SoC and non-NUS participants can participate with a regular Google account.

Hackerspace Week 9: Campus Hacks
What’s one thing about school life that you always wanted to improve?
Some of the tools students now rely on started from exactly that kind of frustration. NUSMods, for example, turned the pain of planning modules and timetables into something genuinely useful.
This week, we’re challenging you to do the same! Join us for a chill and beginner-friendly mini hackathon, where you’ll build solutions that make student life better.
No need to come with a team or a fully formed idea, just come ready to build, experiment and have fun! No hackathon experience needed, beginners are very welcome! And yes, there’ll also be a small prize up for grabs! 👀✨
📅 Date: Wednesday, 14 October 2026
🕒 Time: 3pm - 6pm
📍 Venue: COM3-01-21 (SR12)
🍪 Refreshments will be served as well, so come join in on the fun!

Hackerschool Week 10: Intro to FPGA
📅 Tuesday, 20 October, 7:00–9:00 pm
📍 SR14 @ COM3-01-23
🥤 Refreshments will be served!
Ever wondered how computer chips or day to day electronics work? Want to make your own accelerator? Or maybe drive high speed displays? Or maybe even create your own CPU or eventually computer chip?
Join us for an introduction to Field Programmable Gate Arrays, a special chip that allows you to emulate all sorts of electronics and run various algorithms at high throughputs and speeds. You'll learn the basics of digital design with logic gates, registers, and Verilog. By the end of the workshop, you'll be able to use FPGAs to display cool graphics and animations on displays. Furthermore, you might even be able to take your digital design and Verilog for tape out to make an actual computer chip!
We have 20 GreyMecha/Army FPGA boards available to give out, with an onboard OLED!
