DevFest Welcome note
Cloud Hero	Cloud Heroes an interactive hands-on program designed to bring developers together to learn and engage in friendly hands-on competition in a gamified lab environment in Google Cloud Skills Boost.
Lunch
Generative AI Hands-on Labs	In this technical hands-on session, you will learn the best practices of prompt engineering, basics of parameter efficient tuning and model tuning. You will get to explore Text, Code, and Speech models with Generative AI Studio on Vertex AI. Hands-on practitioners will get to use the Python SDK to run the PaLM API for text, code, and embedding models, along with some examples on prompt designing. Catering to industry-specific use-cases, you will get to run some advanced notebooks which will delve deeper into using foundational models along with other components to build the solution for the industry-use case. This session is intended to cover intermediate to advanced topics for Generative AI and provide you with hands-on experience. The attendees will also get to work with Google AI Specialists to design and discover your business use-cases in a collaborative manner.
Codelab: Convert your existing Firebase Functions to a Firebase Extension	In this codelab, you’ll build a Firebase extension for geohashing. Once deployed, your extension then converts X- and Y-coordinates into geohashes in response to Firestore events or through callable function invocations. This can be used as an alternative to implementing the geofire library across all your target platforms for storing data, saving you time.
What’s new in Android development tools	Get an overview of what’s new in Android Studio for Android app developers, including demos and a presentation of relevant features that can accelerate your workflow on the latest Android APIs.
