After that proceed to the coffee-break session.
The next session was giving material about Agile in Software Development which was delivered by Ahmad Kamil Almasyhur as GO-LIFE Product Engineer. In this session participants were given an explanation of agile which was an approach to software development. Followed by a speaking drill session where participants can learn about the importance of communication in the world of software engineering. Kak Kamil was still present, followed by the next session, namely the Hands On session about Clean Code and SOLID.
