After an intense creative weekend with a huge amount of collaboration and lots of coffee, we are proud to be able to announce the best teams that took part in our very first globalsoft hackathon.&nbsp; But first, let's take a step back and reflect on what made this first event so special. A Challenge Like No Other First globalsoft Hackathon, held on August 30-31, 2024, was much more than a competition. It gathered really bright minds from all parts of the region. With a theme of "Smart City Innovation," participants were challenged to dream up solutions that could genuinely make our cities smarter, safer, and more sustainable. For 48 hours, our headquarters was buzzing with clacking keyboards, flying ideas, and lots of collaboration in real time. What really makes hackathons different, however, is the innovation, skill development, and networking. Participants had an opportunity to think out of the box, learn new technologies, and network with like-minded people while solving real-world problems. It was an avenue to push the envelope on what's possible, and our teams did just that. The Spirit of Competition This was indeed one hackathon that tested the creativity and stamina of the contestants. The competitors were tough, coming from diverse backgrounds and holding different views. Projects ranged from smart traffic management systems to augmented reality applications that brought local landmarks into vivid life. Each project had something different to offer. This made the judges' task of picking out the best really tough. The following themes won: First Place : City Administration &amp; Live Room Second Place: Široki Brijeg's Landmarks AR&nbsp; Third Place: Traffic Jam Detector using Live Camera Feed What's Next? The success of our first hackathon has been nothing but an appetizer for the future. We are already planning an even bigger and better hackathon next year with newer challenges, more participants, and opportunities for even more breakthrough ideas. This weekend has taught us one thing if anything at all: when creativity and collaboration come together, magic will happen. &nbsp;

Highlights from the First globalsoft Hackathon

First globalsoft Hackathon: Celebrating Innovation and Winners

In one period of life, time becomes the most valuable resource. Some say that when it's used up, it's gone. When we put artificial intelligence in the context of time, we get a tool with which we can free up additional time. The question is what will we use that extra time for?&nbsp;How about using those few extra hours a week for things that are very important to us and that will help advance our career. This is exactly what artificial intelligence provides us. It allows us to leave the repetitive and time-consuming things to artificial intelligence and we use that time for strategic thinking, problem solving and creative activities.&nbsp;<img src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/1_cc847c970a.png" alt="1.png" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_1_cc847c970a.png 156w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_1_cc847c970a.png 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_1_cc847c970a.png 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_1_cc847c970a.png 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1080" height="1080">&nbsp;In order to learn exactly which tasks in our daily work we can use AI for, we will first explore history together, progress in generative AI and machine learning. Are you ready to unlock your productivity? Let's learn how to do it together!&nbsp;<h2>History of AI</h2>&nbsp;The idea of Artificial Intelligence is not new; it goes back to the 1940s. In 1950, one of those mythological figures, Alan Turing, published his seminal work named "Computing Machinery and Intelligence," where he proposed this well-known Turing Test as a method for machine intelligence assessment.&nbsp;Fast forward to 1956-the term "Artificial Intelligence" was officially coined at the Dartmouth Conference, and AI as an independent field of study was thus born. Throughout the following decades, AI would experience cycles of hype and growth, followed by setbacks and cuts in funding that resulted in the first "AI winter" of the 1970s.&nbsp;Until the 1980s, a revival of interest in AI had been achieved through the success of expert systems in various industries. In the 1990s, the focus shifted to machine learning; thus, a direction toward data-driven approaches saw the development of algorithms for pattern recognition and neural networks.&nbsp;With the turn of the 2000s, there was great development in terms of processing power and data availability. This supported AI in a big way and led to breakthroughs in natural language processing and computer vision. The path now became clear for the common adoption of AI, which duly happened in the 2010s. During this period, the extensions in AI capabilities and implementations have proliferated remarkably across many sectors.&nbsp;Nowadays, we are into the age of AI innovation where continuous methodology and application breakthroughs are pushing the technology forward with an unprecedented advancing stride. Be it generative AI, deep learning, or multimodal interfaces, the possibilities for improving our work and daily life are limitless.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Unleashing the Power of Generative AI and Effective Prompting</h2>&nbsp;The most interesting limits in AI turn out to be generative AI. This up-and-coming technology is a subcategory of deep learning that is focused on creating storytelling, human-similar content by learning from large datasets. The adaptability of generative AI keeps expanding really fast and offers creative solutions, from generating realistic images and videos to even text.&nbsp;The real power of generative AI, however, is in how this intelligence works in cooperation with human creativity. Through the intentional crafting of a clear, context-rich prompt, you will unlock the power of AI to improve your content creation process by melding its analytical power with your unique insights and ideas.&nbsp;Form your prompt with the CARE framework:&nbsp;<ul style="list-style-type:disc;"><li>Collaborative Goal,&nbsp;</li><li>Adding Context,&nbsp;</li><li>Real-World Application,&nbsp;</li><li>Expected Outcome.&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;This guiding principle ensures that your prompts are aligned with your agile team's objectives, enabling AI to support your decision-making and problem-solving without overshadowing your human expertise.&nbsp;With embracing the generative AI possibilities, it also means that you will be rightly trespassing on ethical consideration. With this, you take up a responsible approach: reaffirm values of transparency and accountability. In so doing, this unlocks your creativity while ensuring that this transformational technology is appropriately applied to serve your needs.&nbsp;<h2>Agile with AI: Opening New Frontiers</h2>&nbsp;The use of AI together with agile practices stands at the forefront of constant change and evolution. Innovations like Artificial General Intelligence and Artificial Capable Intelligence are about to capture the way agile teams work by giving a deeper view, accomplishing complex tasks, and making teamwork easier.&nbsp;<img src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/2_11e0c60875.png" alt="2.png" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_2_11e0c60875.png 156w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_2_11e0c60875.png 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_2_11e0c60875.png 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_2_11e0c60875.png 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1080" height="1080">&nbsp;&nbsp;Imagine having an AI-powered assistant to participate in all of your team meetings, to get comprehensive notes, capture action items, and free up that time needed to get to those strategic discussions or creative problem-solving that really drives agile projects. Alternatively, envision a diverse AI system that will go on to analyze not only verbal cues but also non-verbal ones, proffering custom solutions for improving communication and team dynamics.&nbsp;The more this becomes integrated capability within the workflow, the more significant the role agile practitioners play in bridging or connecting between technology and human-centric values. As AI competence is adopted and AI insights are integrated into agile processes, you can ensure such enhancements augment rather than replace your team's creativity and problem-solving ability.&nbsp;<h2>The Future of Work: AI Copilots and Autonomous Agents</h2>&nbsp;AI copilots are digital companions baked into the fabric of everyday tools, augmenting human capabilities by offering real-time support in everything from summaries of meetings to translations. This cadre of AI agents could free humans to become much more strategic, creative workers by improving efficiency, collaboration, and innovation.&nbsp;With AI-powered technologies going mainstream, practitioners will have to change with it-opening the mindsets to adaptability and continuous learning. You will gain an advantage in this regard through the development of competencies in the fields of data analysis, machine learning, and other uses regarding AI ethics, thereby positioning yourself as a vital bridge between technology and agile principles.&nbsp;<h2>Agility and Continuous Learning in Navigating the AI-Powered Future</h2>&nbsp;Agile and AI integration is a continuous evolution process that requires adaptation, vision, and perennial learning. The adoption of these kinds of transformational technologies means that one has to be open to continuous experimentation in the evolution toward new tools and processes that can benefit your team's efficiency and effectiveness.&nbsp;<img src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/3_ff6c825ec3.png" alt="3.png" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_3_ff6c825ec3.png 156w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_3_ff6c825ec3.png 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_3_ff6c825ec3.png 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_3_ff6c825ec3.png 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1080" height="1080">&nbsp;It can only be kept by fostering a continuous-learning culture-both through formal education and informal sharing among peers. How would you assure that your agile skills, along with your AI competencies, stay pointed and current by incorporating a mixed range of learning strategies online? From courses to community discussions.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the end, the future of work rests in the balance between human and artificial inteligence capabilities. The search for adaptability, lifelong learning, and consideration of ethics unlocks productivity, innovation, and levels of collaboration one couldn't even dream of, whereby one can shape the future with intention and purpose.&nbsp;So, are you ready to use IA in your daily work for growing agility, creativity, and effectiveness?&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>AI Tools That You Can Use Today&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;<img src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/4_53044734a7.png" alt="4.png" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_4_53044734a7.png 156w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_4_53044734a7.png 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_4_53044734a7.png 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_4_53044734a7.png 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1080" height="1080"><ul><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.rewind.ai/">Rewind</a> is an AI that records your screen and audio so that you can review any meeting or task done, storing the data locally for greater privacy.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://chatgpt.com/">ChatGPT </a>by OpenAI is a powerful AI tool that generate human-like text, that finds its applications in drafting emails and even assisting coders-a major help in natural language processing.&nbsp;</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://drawify.com/">Drawify </a>is an online visual content creation platform used in presentations, educational materials, and digital storytelling by adding personalized illustrations.&nbsp;</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://lucidspark.com/product/collaborative-ai">LucidSpark </a>uses Collaborative AI to brainstorm, reveal central themes, and summarize your brainstorms to drive creativity and productivity for team projects.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://character.ai/">Character AI</a> offer tools to build, interact, and converse with AI characters.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://notebooklm.google/">NotebookLM</a> is a virtual research assistant, helping with organization and analysis of project-related documents.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.capcut.com/">CapCut</a> is a free video editor app with plenty of AI editing functions, including background removal, colour correction, and captioning, among others, which make video creation more accessible.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://huggingface.co/">Hugging Face</a> offers access to machine learning models and datasets, together with tools supporting the responsible integration of AI into products and workflows.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.spinach.io/home">Spinach</a> is an AI project manager doing the note-taking on behalf of the participants in meetings, capturing action items, and integrating with other existing tools to streamline project management.</li></ul>So, are you ready to use IA in your daily work for growing agility, creativity, and effectiveness?&nbsp;

The Magic of Hackathons: Unleashing Innovation and Creativity

<h2>We develop your business ideas</h2>At globalsoft, our famous slogan is "We develop your business ideas" - just like we proudly state on our <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://globalsoft.co">homepage</a>. But can every business idea really be turned into a successful product or software? Imagine yourself, dreaming of a perfect house on the coast to spend your retirement days in. But there are prerequisites for such ideas: is the beach sandy, will thunderstorms occur every other night, are good materials available and, of course, is the financial support there. Most of these criteria, if not all, need to be met in order for you to enjoy a visit by your grandchildren in that perfect beachfront house. The same rules can be applied to ideas that our clients, potential and current, bring to us.&nbsp;<h2>What is Proof of Concept (PoC) in software development?</h2>globalsoft, among its other services, offers <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.globalsoft.co/services/product-development">Product development</a>. The first step in Product development, as you can see on that page, is Detailed analysis - we sit down with our clients and brainstorm the happy path as well as any "what if" scenarios, for those not-so-happy paths. The client will bring out multiple ideas, our team always adds some of our own views, and we sketch out a rough overview of what we want to accomplish. However, some ideas can't directly be visualized and have too many variables, both from a technical and from a business perspective. In such cases, especially when we have clients with their own pre-existing legacy code, we move towards creating a so-called Proof of Concept.&nbsp;Proof of Concept, or PoC for short, is the practice of setting time on the side before actual development, typically with the Product Owner and one or more members of the dev team in tandem, to devise and propose a possible solution and present it to the client. Development of the proof of concept is generally an intellectual task, spending time mostly in front of a whiteboard with multiple coloured markers, but can also be a technical task, at least in part, as feasibility from a technical perspective has to be checked - no point in a great idea if you can't transform it into code.&nbsp;<h2>How to write Proof of Concept</h2>To start creating a Proof of Concept you need the third word - a concept. It can be a vague thought or a clear and concise requirement, but in any case it requires careful definition. The know-how of our Business Analysts and/or Product Owners, as well as experienced engineers, is important here, as now is the time to write down certain questions:<ol style="list-style-type:decimal;"><li>What is the Concept?</li><li>What is the targeted audience?</li><li>What is the happy path?</li><li>How to handle not-so-happy paths?</li><li>What would be a measurable outcome to determine success or failure, or in other words, to Prove the Concept?</li></ol>When these questions are answered, then the more concrete items come into the calculation:<ol style="list-style-type:decimal;"><li>What resources are needed, both financial and technical?</li><li>Can any potential dangers already be assessed?</li></ol>These questions can, and usually should, be asked in iterations, as during such brainstorming sessions, some new information will be revealed or unexpected problems might occur - budgets always change, the client comes up with a new idea, frameworks prove to be inadequate etc.&nbsp;After completing one or more rounds of these questions, and all the polishing in the end, the results are presented to the client, and the client usually to their own shareholder, for final approval. All information needs to be presented, both good and bad, as hiding potential risks can work in the short-term, but long-term and successful relationships require open communication and stating the facts - as the saying goes, "warts and all". If the Concept is Proven, then our work is done for that part of the Product Development.&nbsp;<h2>Proof of Concept vs. MVP</h2>Since <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.globalsoft.co/services/mvp-launcher">MVP</a>, or "Minimal viable product" is a term often used in software development, we have sometimes been asked "What is the difference?". MVP is a set of tasks and features that have been determined by the client as a minimum set necessary for testing and possibly even using in real life, which are then layered upon with additional features and fixes. They are usually preceded by one or more Proof of Concepts, as any features needed in an MVP should be well thought about before dedicating precious time and resources into their development. Proof of Concept generally demonstrate feasibility - can it be done, while the V in MVP means viability - can the product of software earn money, market share or some other concrete goal.&nbsp;<h2>globalsoft PoC case study</h2>Although we have more detailed case studies which you can view <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.globalsoft.co/case-studies">here</a>, we can offer you a quick example of Proof of Concept in our own development. For one of our clients, who brought to us their inherited legacy frontend code, we were tasked with introducing a new feature. Since the backend, which was not under our domain, did not directly support this new wanted feature, we offered the client to investigate the matter directly for a number of days to see if we can improvize using other existing features. The PO and dedicated developer took 3 days and found a possible solution which they then presented to the client - along with the benefits, e.g. having the wanted feature, and the short-comings, e.g. response time and complexity of setup and maintenance. After analysis, the client decided the "pros" outweighed the "cons" and decided to go forward with the feature. Starting with the results of the PoC and the feedback by the client who have now seen their feature "in action", the Product development team did an ever better job than expected, bringing an ever bigger smile, as well as some additional revenue, to our client. &nbsp;

# Source the .env file 
source /usr/share/strapi/.env 
# Step 2: Connect to the PostgreSQL container and perform backup 
docker compose exec -T strapiDB sh &lt;&lt; 'EOF' 
# Step 3: Execute the backup command (inside the container) 
pg_dump -U postgres -d postgres &gt; /var/lib/postgresql/data/backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql 
EOF 
 
# Step 5: Copy the backup file from the container to host 
docker cp $(docker compose ps -q strapiDB):/var/lib/postgresql/data/backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql /usr/share/strapi/backup_base/ 
 
# Step 6: Upload the backup file to Google Cloud Storage 
gsutil cp /usr/share/strapi/backup_base/*.sql gs://$STORAGE_CLOUD_DB/ </code></pre> Now you have a ready Docker Compose file and a database backup shell script. You can now write a GitLab CI script to automatically connect to the instance and run Docker Compose for Strapi.&nbsp;You can connect to the instance using SSH with GitLab CI, copy the Docker Compose file, and then run it.&nbsp;In GitLab CI, you can define two types of deployment stages: "stage" and "prod". These stages help organize the deployment process, allowing for distinct actions at different points in the pipeline. For example, you can designate the "stage" stage to run when you merge changes into the main branch, ensuring that your developments are thoroughly tested before moving further. Conversely, you assign the "prod" stage to execute when you tag a release, indicating that the code is ready for production deployment. This separation of stages streamlines the deployment workflow, enhancing efficiency and reliability in software delivery.&nbsp;<h2>Cost-saving advice</h2>In addition to optimizing your deployment pipeline, there are further strategies you can employ to reduce expenses in cloud infrastructure. For instance, if you maintain a staging instance for testing and development purposes, it may not be necessary to keep it running continuously. Leveraging features provided by platforms like Google Cloud, you can schedule the instance to automatically turn on and off based on your usage patterns.&nbsp;By implementing this proactive approach, you can significantly lower your operational costs while still maintaining the flexibility and accessibility of your staging environment.&nbsp;This simple yet effective cost-saving measure demonstrates your commitment to efficient resource management and financial sustainability in your cloud operations.&nbsp; &nbsp;

Celebrating Success: Recap of the globalsoft Code Camp 3.0 

The successful completion of the third edition of globalsoft Code Camp

You are building a new product, creating product development plan, investigating development process, looking for a new company to build your idea. If yes, then let’s see how Design Thinking with Scrum can help you with this process.&nbsp;<h2>More Innovative Solutions with 5 Stages in the Design Thinking Process</h2>If you are, while designing your product, thinking about end user, your customer, you could say that you started with Design Thinking. What is common for Scrum and Design Thinking? They both deal with complex problems. How user will behave, think or how your product could change his life, Hasso Plattner, Institute of Design at Stanford proposed five stage Design Thinking model: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, Test.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1920/1080;" src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/5_stages_in_the_Design_Thinking_process_f267de9714.jpg" alt="5_stages_in_the_Design_Thinking_process.jpg" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_5_stages_in_the_Design_Thinking_process_f267de9714.jpg 245w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_5_stages_in_the_Design_Thinking_process_f267de9714.jpg 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_5_stages_in_the_Design_Thinking_process_f267de9714.jpg 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_5_stages_in_the_Design_Thinking_process_f267de9714.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1920" height="1080"></figure>&nbsp;<h3>Empathize</h3> In this phase you need to understand your users, their needs and the problems, problems that will be solved by using your product. Good thing is if company that will build your product is using Scrum. One artefact in Scrum is Product Goal. When Scrum Team is building product, they always have Product Goal in mind. It didn’t all started with Product Goal, it started from Vision, Product Vision, Product Roadmap to Product Goal. Both in common to Design Thinking and Scrum is to have end user on mind. When you search for a company that will create a product, company that you are entering product development process with, expect to talk about and users as well, there is nothing worse than build a product that nobody use. If you fail, fail early. You have opportunity to inspect and adapt.&nbsp;<h3>Define</h3>&nbsp; Think of your product as a solution for customer problems, needs. Think about features that are solving problems. Communicate your product as solution to client’s problems to company that is building your product as well. Be on the same page. Scrum will help you with increment development, every iteration called Sprint is adding value to your product, you are able to collect feedback as product is developing to gain feedback early. When you are invited to Sprint Review event, by the team that is building your product, please don’t skip it. This is your opportunity to redefine, to give feedback, to coordinate with your product development plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>Ideate&nbsp;</h3> All team members are suggesting ideas, here is when psychological safety comes in place. In psychological safe environment team members feel safe to talk. Whether you are empowering existing product, developing your product idea from the beginning as MVP, celebrate every suggested idea. In some companies, people are rewarded for rejected ideas. If you are in situation where ideas are coming one after one you are lucky. So, when you chose company for product development, “listen” carefully.&nbsp;<h3>Prototype</h3> It is time to create your solutions for previously defined problems. This is when Product Backlog is created. It is a prioritized list of work for the developers that is derived from the roadmap and its requirements. Product Backlog items on top goes to iteration, at the end of iteration called Sprint you will see first prototype. Inputs for Product Backlog are very important. They are coming from product vision, product roadmap, customers, marketing, sales… When communicating your requirements with company for product development let them be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-based).&nbsp;<h3>Test&nbsp;</h3> Now your users are testing your solution, giving you feedback so you can go into next production iteration. Try your solution and gain feedback from customers. Both with Design Thinking and Scrum you have 3 pillars of Empiricism in place: Transparency, Inspection and Adaption. Use them all.&nbsp;<h2>Core Principles of Design Thinking</h2><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1920/1080;" src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/Core_principles_0b416f98c1.jpg" alt="Core_principles.jpg" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_Core_principles_0b416f98c1.jpg 245w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_Core_principles_0b416f98c1.jpg 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_Core_principles_0b416f98c1.jpg 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_Core_principles_0b416f98c1.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1920" height="1080"></figure> There are several key principles that guide the process in Design Thinking that you could use:<ul><li>Human Centred – focus on creating solutions that meet customers requirements. Customer is in the centre of your mind. You are solving his problems.&nbsp;</li><li>Empathy – Design Thinking is calling for active listening, understanding clients’ emotions and motivators. This is why we are born with two ears and one mouth. Iterative Process – transparent process that enables to inspect and adapt, delivering value with each iteration.&nbsp;</li><li>Collaboration – all Scrum events are calling team members to collaborate because it leads to more creative solutions, effective ones.&nbsp;</li><li>Mindset – all that you were able to read previously is a matter of a mindset. If you get value from this blog post that means you have a mindset for it.</li></ul>This principle enables you to build product that are meaningful and have impact for end users.&nbsp;<h2>Impact of Design Thinking on Product Development</h2>Design Thinking is not just impacting product development it starts from Vision. First vision was created in mind, so we can say that Design Thinking is a mindset, as well as Agile, mindset that can be applied across all aspects of a business enabling solutions to complex problems.Right mindset is in place when principles come to live. Both Agile and Design Thinking principles foster collaboration, encouraging employees to think outside the box and experiment for solutions. Make decisions based on experiences. Look for a feedback loop. Gain your deserved market share.&nbsp;<h2>Embrace a Mindset to Design Thinking</h2>When you are practicing empathy just put yourself into customers shoes. Think from different position. If you need, put yourself in third position as well and think like observer. Remember how acters are preparing for their roles, in real time situations most of the time. You are preparing yourself to solve real problems and empathy can help.If you are a real talent but you can’t collaborate with others, you miss lots of chances for success. Collaboration fosters creativity, generates innovative solutions. Freedom to experiment and psychological safety, encourages a culture of experimentation and iteration. It values the process of trial and error, allowing designers to explore multiple solutions, refine ideas based on feedback, and iterate until they arrive at the most viable and effective solution (MVP). This freedom to experiment encourages risk-taking, fosters creativity, and ultimately leads to great innovations.Having a mindset to design thinking with empathy, collaboration, and creating an environment where experimentation is encouraged, complex challenges can be led to meaningful innovation.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1200/1200;" src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg" alt="Mindset.jpg" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 156w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1200" height="1200"></figure>&nbsp;<h2>What if You Ignore Design Thinking?</h2>Nothing will happen, or you could build something that nobody uses. &nbsp;It is up to you.&nbsp; &nbsp;

You don't have to choose between Scrum and Design Thinking, combine them for successful product development, read how.

Sie entwickeln ein neues Produkt, erstellen einen Entwicklungsplan, untersuchen den Entwicklungsprozess, suchen ein neues Unternehmen, das Ihre Idee umsetzen soll? Wenn ja, dann lassen Sie uns sehen, wie Design Thinking mit Scrum Ihnen bei diesem Prozess helfen kann.&nbsp;<heading>Mehr innovative Lösungen mit den 5 Stufen des Design Thinking Prozesses</heading>&nbsp;<h2>Mehr innovative Lösungen mit 5 Phasen im Design Thinking-Prozess</h2>Wenn Sie bei der Entwicklung Ihres Produkts an den Endverbraucher, Ihren Kunden, denken, könnten Sie sagen, dass Sie mit Design Thinking begonnen haben. Was haben Scrum und Design Thinking gemeinsam? Sie beschäftigen sich beide mit komplexen Problemen. Hasso Plattner vom Institute of Design in Stanford schlug ein fünfstufiges Design Thinking Modell vor, bei dem es darum geht, wie sich der Benutzer verhält, wie er denkt oder wie das Produkt sein Leben verändern könnte: Einfühlung, Definierung, Ideenfindung, Prototyp, Test.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1920/1080;" src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/5_Stufen_d651855be3.jpg" alt="5_Stufen.jpg" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_5_Stufen_d651855be3.jpg 245w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_5_Stufen_d651855be3.jpg 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_5_Stufen_d651855be3.jpg 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_5_Stufen_d651855be3.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1920" height="1080"></figure><heading>Einfühlung</heading>&nbsp;<h2>Einfühlung</h2>In dieser Phase müssen Sie Ihre Benutzer, ihre Bedürfnisse und die Probleme verstehen, die durch die Verwendung Ihres Produkts gelöst werden sollen. Es ist gut, wenn das Unternehmen, das Ihr Produkt herstellen wird, Scrum verwendet. Eines der Artefakte in Scrum ist das Produktziel. Wenn das Scrum-Team ein Produkt entwickelt, hat es immer das Produktziel im Blick. Es hat nicht alles mit dem Product Goal angefangen, sondern mit der Idee, der Product Vision, der Product Roadmap und dem Product Goal. Design Thinking und Scrum haben beide gemeinsam, dass sie den Endverbraucher im Blick haben. Wenn Sie ein Unternehmen suchen, das ein Produkt entwickeln soll, ein Unternehmen, mit dem Sie in den Produktentwicklungsprozess einsteigen, erwarten Sie, dass Sie darüber sprechen und auch die Benutzer im Blick haben, denn es gibt nichts Schlimmeres, als ein Produkt zu bauen, das niemand benutzt. Wenn Sie scheitern, scheitern Sie früh. Sie haben die Möglichkeit, das Produkt zu überprüfen und anzupassen.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Definierung</h2><heading>Definierung</heading>&nbsp;Betrachten Sie Ihr Produkt als eine Lösung für die Probleme und Bedürfnisse Ihrer Kunden. Denken Sie an Funktionen, die Probleme lösen. Vermitteln Sie Ihr Produkt als Lösung für die Probleme des Kunden auch dem Unternehmen, das Ihr Produkt herstellt. Seien Sie auf der gleichen Seite. Scrum hilft Ihnen bei der schrittweisen Entwicklung. Jede Iteration, die Sprint genannt wird, steigert den Wert Ihres Produkts, und Sie können während der Produktentwicklung Feedback einholen, um frühzeitig Rückmeldungen zu erhalten. Wenn Sie von dem Team, das Ihr Produkt entwickelt, zu einem Sprint Review eingeladen werden, sollten Sie dies nicht auslassen. Dies ist Ihre Gelegenheit, Ihr Produkt neu zu definieren, Feedback zu geben und es mit Ihrem Produktentwicklungsplan abzustimmen.&nbsp;<h2>Ideenfindung</h2><heading>Ideenfindung</heading>Alle Teammitglieder schlagen Ideen vor. Hier kommt die psychologische Sicherheit ins Spiel. In einer psychologisch sicheren Umgebung können alle Teammitglieder frei reden. Egal, ob Sie ein bestehendes Produkt verbessern oder Ihre Produktidee von Anfang an als MVP entwickeln, Sie sollten jede vorgeschlagene Idee begrüßen. In einigen Unternehmen werden die Mitarbeiter für abgelehnte Ideen belohnt. Wenn Sie in einer Situation sind, in der eine Idee nach der anderen kommt, haben Sie Glück. Wenn Sie also ein Unternehmen für die Produktentwicklung auswählen, sollten Sie genau zuhören.&nbsp;<h2>Prototyp</h2>Es ist Zeit, Ihre Lösungen für die zuvor definierten Probleme zu erstellen. Dies ist der Zeitpunkt, zu dem das Product Backlog erstellt wird. Dabei handelt es sich um eine nach Prioritäten geordnete Liste von Aufgaben für die Entwickler, die aus der Roadmap und den Anforderungen abgeleitet wird. Die obersten Elemente des Product Backlogs gehen in die Iteration. Am Ende der Iteration, die Sprint genannt wird, sehen Sie den ersten Prototyp. Die Inputs für das Product Backlog sind sehr wichtig. Sie stammen von der Produktvision, der Produkt-Roadmap, den Kunden, dem Marketing, dem Vertrieb... Wenn Sie Ihre Anforderungen für die Produktentwicklung mit dem Unternehmen kommunizieren, sollten sie SMART sein (Spezifisch, Messbar, Erreichbar, Realistisch und Zeitbezogen).&nbsp;<heading>Test</heading>&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Test</h2>Jetzt testen Ihre Nutzer Ihre Lösung und geben Ihnen Feedback, damit Sie in die nächste Produktionsiteration gehen können. Testen Sie Ihre Lösung und holen Sie das Feedback Ihrer Kunden ein. Sowohl mit Design Thinking als auch mit Scrum verfügen Sie über 3 Grundpfeiler der Empirie: Transparenz, Prüfung und Anpassung. Nutzen Sie sie alle.&nbsp;<heading>Grundprinzipien des Design Thinking</heading> <img>&nbsp;<h2>Grundprinzipien</h2><img src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/Grundprinzipien_a7284092b7.jpg" alt="Grundprinzipien.jpg" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_Grundprinzipien_a7284092b7.jpg 245w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_Grundprinzipien_a7284092b7.jpg 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_Grundprinzipien_a7284092b7.jpg 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_Grundprinzipien_a7284092b7.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1920" height="1080">&nbsp;Es gibt mehrere Grundprinzipien, die den Prozess des Design Thinking leiten und die Sie nutzen können:&nbsp;<ul><li>Menschenorientiert - konzentrieren Sie sich auf die Entwicklung von Lösungen, die den Anforderungen der Kunden entsprechen. Der Kunde steht im Mittelpunkt Ihres Denkens. Sie sind dabei, seine Probleme zu lösen.&nbsp;</li><li>Empathize - Design Thinking erfordert aktives Zuhören, das Verstehen der Emotionen und Motivatoren des Kunden. Aus diesem Grund hat jeder von uns zwei Ohren und einen Mund. • Iterativer Prozess - ein transparenter Prozess, der es ermöglicht, zu prüfen und anzupassen und mit jeder Iteration einen Mehrwert zu liefern.&nbsp;</li><li>Zusammenarbeit - alle Scrum Events fordern die Teammitglieder zur Zusammenarbeit auf, weil dies zu kreativeren und effektiveren Lösungen führt.&nbsp;</li><li>Mindset - alles, was Sie bisher lesen konnten, ist eine Frage des Mindsets. Wenn dieser Blogbeitrag für Sie von Nutzen ist, bedeutet das, dass Sie eine entsprechende Einstellung haben.&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;Dieses Prinzip ermöglicht es Ihnen, Produkte zu entwickeln, die für den Endverbraucher sinnvoll sind und Wirkung zeigen.&nbsp;<heading>Auswirkungen von Design Thinking auf die Produktentwicklung</heading>&nbsp;&nbsp;<div class="flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative

sondern beginnt mit der Vision. Wir können also sagen, dass Design Thinking sowohl eine Denkweise als auch etwas Agiles ist, die auf alle Aspekte eines Unternehmens angewendet werden kann und Lösungen für komplexe Probleme ermöglicht. Die richtige Denkweise ist vorhanden, wenn die Prinzipien zum Leben erweckt werden. Sowohl Agile- als auch Design Thinking Prinzipien fördern die Zusammenarbeit und ermutigen die Mitarbeiter, über den Tellerrand hinauszuschauen und nach Lösungen zu suchen. Treffen Sie Entscheidungen auf der Grundlage von Erfahrungen. Suchen Sie nach einer Feedbackschleife. Gewinnen Sie Ihren verdienten Marktanteil.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Eine Denkweise des Design Thinking annehmen</h2><heading>Machen Sie sich eine Denkweise zu eigen, die auf Design ausgerichtet ist </heading>Wenn Sie Empathie üben, versetzen Sie sich einfach in die Lage des Kunden. Denken Sie aus einer anderen Position. Wenn nötig, versetzen Sie sich auch in eine dritte Position und denken Sie wie ein Beobachter. Erinnern Sie sich daran, wie sich Schauspieler auf ihre Rollen vorbereiten, und zwar meistens in Echtzeitsituationen. Sie bereiten sich darauf vor, echte Probleme zu lösen und Einfühlungsvermögen kann dabei helfen.&nbsp;Wenn Sie ein echtes Talent sind, aber nicht mit anderen zusammenarbeiten können, verpassen Sie viele Chancen auf Erfolg. Zusammenarbeit fördert die Kreativität und bringt innovative Lösungen hervor. Die Freiheit zu experimentieren und die psychologische Sicherheit fördern eine Kultur des Experimentierens und der Iteration. Sie schätzen den Prozess des Ausprobierens, der es den Designern ermöglicht, mehrere Lösungen zu erforschen, Ideen auf der Grundlage von Feedback zu verfeinern und so lange zu iterieren, bis sie die praktikabelste und effektivste Lösung (MVP) gefunden haben. Diese Freiheit zum Experimentieren ermutigt zur Risikobereitschaft, fördert die Kreativität und führt letztendlich zu großartigen Innovationen.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mit einer Denkweise, die auf Einfühlungsvermögen, Zusammenarbeit und die Schaffung eines Umfelds ausgerichtet ist, in dem das Experimentieren gefördert wird, können komplexe Herausforderungen zu sinnvollen Innovationen geführt werden.&nbsp;<img src="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg" alt="Mindset.jpg" srcset="https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/thumbnail_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 156w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/small_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 500w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/medium_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 750w,https://admin.globalsoft.co/uploads/large_Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1200" height="1200">&nbsp;<h2>Was passiert, wenn man Design Thinking ignoriert?<img></h2>Es wird nichts passieren, oder Sie entwickeln etwas, das niemand benutzt. Es liegt ganz bei Ihnen.

Sie müssen sich nicht zwischen Scrum und Design Thinking entscheiden, kombinieren Sie sie für eine erfolgreiche Produktentwicklung, lesen Sie, wie.

Kann Design Thinking mit Scrum wirklich bei der Produktentwicklung helfen?    

Imate ideju za razvoj proizvoda, pravite plan razvoja, istražujete proces, razmišljate kojoj kompaniji ukazati povjerenje da vašu ideju pretvori u proizvod kojeg klijenti obožavaju. Ako je odgovor da, idemo skupa istražiti kako Design Thinking i Scrum mogu pomoći u ovom procesu. 

<heading>Kroz 5 faza do inovativnijih rješenja </heading>

Ako ste, dok ste dizajnirali svoj proizvod, razmišljali o krajnjem korisniku, svom kupcu, mogli bi reći kako ste u osnovi aktivirali Design Thinking. Što je zajedničko za Scrum i Design Thinking? Bave se kompleksnim problemima. Kako će se korisnik ponašati, razmišljati ili kako bi mu vaš proizvod mogao promijeniti život, Hasso Plattner, Institut za dizajn na Stanfordu predložio je pet faza Design Thinking modela: empatija, definiranje, ideacija, prototip i test. 

<img>![Designt_thinking_5_faza.jpg](https://admin-v2.globalsoft.ba/uploads/Designt_thinking_5_faza_63f51989dd.jpg)</img>

<heading>Empatija</heading>
U ovoj fazi morate razumjeti svoje korisnike, njihove potrebe i probleme, probleme koji će se riješiti korištenjem vašeg proizvoda. Dobra stvar je ako tvrtka koja će razvijati vaš proizvod koristi Scrum. Jedan artefakt u Scrumu je Product Goal. Kad Scrum tim razvija proizvod, uvijek ima na umu cilj proizvoda. To je i zajedničko za Design Thinking i Scrum, imati na umu krajnjeg korisnika. Kada birate kompaniju koja će razvijati proizvod, a ujedno primjenjuje Scrum, korisno je očekivati i razgovor o krajnjem korisniku, nema ništa gore nego napraviti proizvod koji nitko ne koristi. Greške su u uredu i prihvatljive su u ranoj fazi razvoja gdje imate priliku uraditi inspekciju i prilagodbu. 

<heading>Definiranje</heading>
Uvijek zamišljajte o svom proizvodu kao rješenju za probleme i potrebe krajnjeg korisnika, kupca. Komunicirajte svoj proizvod kao rješenje za klijentove probleme timu koji razvija vaš proizvod. Budite na istoj strani. Scrum će vam pomoći s inkrementalnim i iterativnim razvojem, svaka iteracija pod nazivom Sprint dodaje vrijednost vašem proizvodu, u mogućnosti ste prikupljati povratne informacije kako se proizvod razvija kako biste rano uradili prilagodbu. Kada vas tim koji izrađuje vaš proizvod pozove na događaj Sprint Review, nemojte ga preskočiti. Ovo je vaša prilika da redefinirate, date povratne informacije, da se uskladite sa svojim planom razvoja proizvoda. 

<heading>Ideacija, razmišljanje</heading>
Kada članovi razvojnog tima predlažu ideje, ovdje znajte kako je prisutna psihološka sigurnost. U psihološki sigurnom okruženju članovi tima se osjećaju sigurno razgovarati. Bilo da unaprjeđujete postojeći proizvod, razvijate svoju ideju od početka kao MVP, slavite svaku predloženu ideju. U nekim kompanijama ljudi su nagrađeni za odbačene ideje. Ako ste u situaciji da ideje dolaze jedna za jednom, imate sreće. Dakle, kada birate kompaniju za razvoj proizvoda, pažljivo “slušajte”.

<heading>Prototip</heading>
Vrijeme je da kreirate rješenja za prethodno definirane probleme. Scrum tim stvara Product Backlog. To je prioritetni popis poslova izveden iz plana. Product Backlog stavke s vrha popisa idu u iteraciju, na kraju iteracije pod nazivom Sprint vidjet ćete prvi prototip. Inputi za Product Backlog vrlo su važni. Oni dolaze iz vizije proizvoda, plana proizvoda, kupaca, marketinga, prodaje... Kada komunicirate svoje zahtjeve s timom za razvoj proizvoda, neka budu specifični, mjerljivi, dostižni, relevantni i zasnovani na vremenu.

<heading>Test</heading>
Sada vaši korisnici testiraju vaše rješenje, daju vam povratne informacije kako biste mogli prijeći na sljedeću iteraciju razvoja. Isprobajte svoje rješenje i prikupite povratne informacije od kupaca. Design Thinking i Scrum postavljaju 3 stupa empirizma: Transparentnost, Inspekcija i Prilagodba. Koristite ih sve.

<heading>Design Thinking i temeljna načela, principi</heading>

<img>![Ključni_principi.jpg](https://admin-v2.globalsoft.ba/uploads/Kljucni_principi_e7a29eebde.jpg)</img>

Postoji nekoliko temeljnih principa koja vode proces i koja biste mogli koristiti:
•	Usmjerenost na korisnika – fokus na stvaranje rješenja koja ispunjavaju zahtjeve korisnika koji je u središtu vašeg uma. Vi rješavate njegove probleme.
•	Empatija – Design Thinking poziva na aktivno slušanje, razumijevanje emocija i motivatora klijenata. 
•	Iterativni proces – transparentan proces koji omogućuje inspekciju i prilagodbu, isporučujući vrijednost sa svakom iteracijom.
•	Suradnja - Scrum i Design Thinking od članova tima očekuju suradnju koja dovodi do kreativnijih, učinkovitijih rješenja.
•	Način razmišljanja, mindset – sve što ste mogli pročitati do sada je stvar načina razmišljanja. Ako imate vrijednost od ovog posta, to znači da imate mindset za to.

Ova načela vam omogućavaju da izgradite proizvod koji ima značaj i ima utjecaj na krajnje korisnike.

<heading>Kako Design Thinking utječe na razvoj proizvoda</heading>

Design Thinking ne utječe samo na razvoj proizvoda, kreće već od vizije. Prva vizija je stvorena na umu, tako da možemo reći da je Design Thinking način razmišljanja, kao i Agile, način razmišljanja koji se može primijeniti u svim aspektima poslovanja omogućujući rješenja za složene probleme.

Ispravno razmišljanje, mindset postoji kada principi zažive. Načela Agile i Design Thinking potiču suradnju, potičući članove tima da razmišljaju izvan okvira i eksperimentiraju u potrazi za rješenjima. Odluke je korisno donositi na temelju iskustava. Tražiti i uvažavati povratnu informaciju i na takav način imati zasluženi tržišni udio.

<img>![Mindset.jpg](https://admin-v2.globalsoft.ba/uploads/Mindset_5429e3e925.jpg)</img>

<heading>Kako koristiti Design Thinking</heading>

Kada vježbate empatiju, razmišljate iz cipela korisnika. Razmišljajte iz druge pozicije. Ako treba, stavite se i u treću poziciju i razmišljajte kao promatrač. Prisjetite se kako se glumci pripremaju za svoje uloge, većinu vremena u situacijama iz stvarnog okruženja. Pripremate se za rješavanje stvarnih problema i empatija može pomoći.

Ako ste pravi talent, ali ne možete surađivati s drugima, propuštate puno prilika za uspjeh. Suradnja potiče kreativnost, stvara inovativna rješenja. Sloboda eksperimentiranja i psihološka sigurnost potiču kulturu eksperimentiranja i iterativnog razvoja. Cijenite proces pokušaja i pogrešaka, potičite tim da istražuje višestruka rješenja, poboljšaju ideje na temelju povratnih informacija i ponavljaju sve dok ne dođu do najefikasnijeg i najučinkovitijeg rješenja (MVP). Ova sloboda eksperimentiranja potiče preuzimanje rizika, potiče kreativnost i u konačnici dovodi do velikih inovacija.

Kada imate način razmišljanja s empatijom, suradnjom i stvaranjem okruženja u kojem se potiče eksperimentiranje, kompleksni izazovi mogu dovesti do značajnih inovacija.

<heading>Što ako zanemarite Design Thinking?</heading>

Ništa se neće dogoditi ili biste mogli izgraditi proizvod kojeg klijenti ne koriste. Na vama je.

Kako izraditi proizvod kojeg klijenti koriste? Design Thinking i Scrum mogu pomoći u ovom procesu, u kombinaciji dovode do značajnih inovacija.

Mogu li Design Thinking i Scrum stvarno pomoći za razvoj proizvoda?

Ešref Pivčić, who completed the Globalsoft internship, shared his impressions gained during this period of learning and mastering new skills.&nbsp;"My colleague and I were warmly welcomed by the staff in Mostar, and we quickly had the chance to meet most of the employees who were open to assisting with any questions. We were immediately involved in working on a project that was highly interesting – developing a system for driving exams (<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://github.com/NedzmijaMuminovic/eDrivingSchool">https://github.com/NedzmijaMuminovic/eDrivingSchool</a>). This project was not only challenging but also provided us with the opportunity to apply and expand our knowledge, especially in technologies such as React and Go.&nbsp;The flexible working hours and relaxed atmosphere in the company created a work environment in which we felt fully engaged and supported. The Globalsoft team, regardless of their position, provided us with a respectful attitude, making us feel like equal members of the team, not just interns. I also want to express my satisfaction with being welcome in the office in Široki Brijeg, which further enriched our experience.&nbsp;Considering the engagement in the project, working with modern technologies, and the support we received from colleagues, this internship was not only educational but also very enjoyable. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to work at Globalsoft and look forward to the possibility of future collaboration."

Review of Internship Experience at Globalsoft

<h2>What is Hexagonal Architecture?</h2>Hexagonal architecture, also known as Ports and Adapters or the Onion architecture, is a software design pattern that has gained popularity due to its ability to improve the maintainability, testability, and adaptability of an application. The layers of the application are represented as a hexagon, with the innermost layer being the core of the application and the outer layers representing various external interfaces.&nbsp;<h2>Components of the Hexagonal Architecture</h2><h3>Domain Model</h3>At the centre of the architecture is the Domain Model, which represents the application’s core business logic and entities. It is responsible for implementing the main functionality and rules that the application is built around. One of the critical principles of hexagonal architecture is that the core of the application should not depend on any specific external interface.&nbsp;<h3>Ports</h3>Ports are the interfaces that define the communication points between the application’s core logic and the external world. They can be categorized as:<ul><li>Primary or Driving Ports - define the operations that the application exposes to external actors. They represent the use cases or application services that external systems or users initiate.</li><li>Secondary or Driven Ports - define the operations that the application needs from external services or components. They represent the dependencies or resources required for the application to function.</li></ul>&nbsp;<h2>Adapters</h2>Adapters are the components that translate the interactions between the external world and the core business logic by implementing the ports. There are two types:<ul><li>Primary or Driving Adapters - convert external inputs into a format that the core logic can understand.</li><li>Secondary or Driven Adapters - implement secondary ports by providing the required functionality to interact with external services or resources. &nbsp;</li></ul>

We are pleased to share this testimonial from our intern, Nedžmija Muminović, who recently completed her internship with us, which is a testament to the supportive environment we strive to create for our interns, empowering them to thrive and make a real impact. ‘’During my first internship, I worked as a software developer on a project that involved using various programming languages and tools for both frontend and backend development.&nbsp;Although I had some prior knowledge from my university studies, this internship provided me with the opportunity to acquire new skills and a deeper understanding of software development. The specific tools and languages we used were new to me, which was a great chance for learning, especially considering that I was just starting my career.&nbsp;I met many new people during the internship, and everyone was exceptionally kind, cooperative, and ready to help. Working in such a collaborative environment contributed to my positive experience.&nbsp;I consider this experience to be very valuable, providing me with a solid foundation and a good start in the world of software development. I believe I have gained essential skills for my further professional development.’’ &nbsp;

We are pleased to share this testimonial from our intern, Nedžmija Muminović, who recently completed her internship with us.

Zadovoljstvo nam je podijeliti izjavu naše praktikantice, Nedžmije Muminović, koja je nedavno završila praksu kod nas, koje je dokaz poticajnog okruženja koje nastojimo stvoriti za naše praktikante, osnažujući ih da napreduju i ostvare pravi utjecaj. 


‘’Tokom svoje prve prakse, radila sam kao software developer na projektu koji je uključivao korištenje različitih programskih jezika i alata, kako za frontend, tako i za backend.

Iako sam imala određeno predznanje s fakulteta, ova praksa mi je pružila priliku za usvajanje novih vještina i dublje razumijevanje software development-a. Specifični alati i jezici koje smo koristili bili su mi novi, što je za mene predstavljalo odličnu priliku za učenje, obzirom da tek počinjem svoju karijeru.

Upoznala sam mnogo novih ljudi tokom prakse, a svi su bili izuzetno ljubazni, susretljivi i spremni pomoći. Rad u takvom timskom okruženju pridonosio je mom pozitivnom iskustvu.

Smatram da je ovo iskustvo bilo vrlo korisno i da mi je pružilo dobar početak u svijetu software development-a te da sam stekla čvrst temelj za svoj daljnji razvoj. ’’

Two weeks ago, two of our Project team members, Tomislav and Kristian, set a new internal record for furthest travel - at least for business purposes. They spent 3 days in Newcastle, in the north of England, in a tough but effective workshop with our new partners, Bede Gaming Ltd., along with some of our friends from the Userwerk/DS GmbH group. The trip was blessed with relatively good weather - not too much rain - and the guys managed some free time to check out the sights and attractions of downtown Newcastle.

Prije dva tjedna, dva člana našeg Project teama, Tomislav i Kristian, postavili su novi interni rekord za najdalje putovanje - barem za poslovne potrebe. Proveli su 3 dana u Newcastleu, na sjeveru Engleske, u teškoj, ali efektivnoj radionici sa našim novim partnerima, Bede Gaming Ltd., zajedno s nekoliko kolega iz Userwerka/DS GmbH grupacije. Putovanje je pratilo relativno dobro vrijeme - nije bilo previše kiše - pa su momci uspjeli naći i nešto slobodnog vremena za razgledanje centra Newcastlea.

The first edition of Globalsoft Code camp is done! After 2 months of diligent learning and practicing under the watchful eye of their mentors, Josip and Ante, the students faced a challenge - the final test. In total 31 students passed the test - 16 in the beginner and 15 in the advanced group - and their work and effort were rewarded with a signed certificate with which they can start their web developm﻿ent careers. We also polled the students to see what we could do better in future editions, such as administrative and technical organization, the course structure, clarity of the content and the overall atmosphere. Judging by the results, the mentors did a great job since more than 90% of the grades were “very good” or “excellent”! If you want to be a part of the Code camp, the next edition is planned for autumn of 2023 both in Široki Brijeg and in Mostar.

Prvo izdanje Globalsoft Code campa je gotovo! Nakon dva mjeseca marljivog učenja i vježbanja pod budnim okom svojih mentora, Josipa i Ante, polaznike je dočekao izazov - završni test. Ukupno je 31 polaznik položio ispit - 16 u početničkoj i 15 u naprednoj skupini - a njihov rad i trud okrunjen je potpisanim certifikatom s kojim mogu započeti karijere u web developmentu. Polaznike smo i anketirali da vidimo što bismo mogli poboljšati u kasnijim izdanjima, poput administrativne i tehničke organizacije, strukture predavanja, jasnoće sadržaja, kao i općenito atmosfere. Sudeći po rezultatima, mentorima je super išlo jer je preko 90% ocjena bilo “vrlo dobro” ili “odlično”! Ako i Vi želite sudjelovati na Code campu, iduće izdanje planirano je za jesen 2023. i u Širokom Brijegu i u Mostaru.

Last week, .debug, the largest annual developer conference in Croatia, was held in Zagreb. The organizer, Bug, organized a hectic yet fun conference with more than 80 lectures taking place simultaneously in 5 different tracks. Three of our devs, Ante, Tomislav and Jozo, took a trip up north to get a first-hand look at new, cutting-edge tech, make some new acquaintances and even bring back a few goodie bags! The biggest challenge for them was to decide which lectures to attend and which to skip... But in the end they managed to cover a lot of interesting topics, everything from AI to human resource management in IT. They also concluded that we at Globalsoft are advancing with the new trends and are staying up-to-date - who knows, maybe one of us could be a lecturer at one of the next conferences.

Last week, .debug, the largest annual developer conference in Croatia, was held in Zagreb.

Prošli tjedan, .debug, najveća godišnja developerska konferencija u Hrvatskoj, održana je u Zagrebu. Organizator, Bug, organizirao je užurbanu, ali zabavnu konferenciju s više od 80 predavanja koja su se održavala usporedno u 5 različitih staza. Trojica naših developera, Ante, Tomislav i Jozo, uputili su se na sjever da bi dobili pogled iz prve ruke na nove, najmodernije tehnologije, sklopili nova poznanstva, a i vratili se s nekoliko vrećica sponzorskih poklona! Najveći izazov bio im je odlučiti koja predavanja posjetiti, a koja propustiti… ali na kraju su uspjeli pokriti dosta zanimljivih tema, od umjetne inteligencije do upravljanja ljudskim resusrima u IT-u. Također su zaključili da mi u Globalsoftu napredujemo u skladu s trendovima i da smo u tijeku – tko zna, možda bi netko od nas mogao biti predavač na nekoj od sljedećih konferencija.

Global Soft’s business expands and requires new infrastructure. Our headquarters offices in Trnska cesta 146 became too small for all employees. Not only that, we wanted to give a high-standard, modern and functional premises to our staff.!
The plan was rolling on and works were being done in a new location the last half a year and the beginning of the new year coincided with the new office being ready.

Two days ago, our new premises in Ulica pobijenih franjevaca (former Obilazna cesta) 25 were officially opened!

A toast in the office with employees, partners and clients was held, followed by hanging out with dinner and live music.

May the new office bring us even more motivation to deliver you high-quality solutions and enjoy our working day.


Our new premises in Ulica pobijenih franjevaca (former Obilazna cesta) 25 was officially opened!

Das Wachstum von Global Soft erfordert eine neue Infrastruktur. Unser Hauptsitz in der Trnska cesta 146 wurde uns zu klein. Außerdem wollten wir unseren Mitarbeitern ein hochwertiges, modernes und funktionelles Gebäude zur Verfügung stellen.

 

Die Planungen liefen auf Hochtouren und ein Jahr lang wurde an einem neuen Standort gearbeitet, und Anfang des neuen Jahres war das neue Büro fertig.

 

Vor zwei Tagen wurden unsere neuen Räumlichkeiten in der Ulica pobijenih franjevaca(ehemalige Obilazna cesta) 25 offiziell eröffnet!

 

Im Büro wurde mit Mitarbeitern, Partnern und Kunden gefeiert, gefolgt von einem gemütlichen Abendessen und Live-Musik.

 

Möge das neue Büro uns noch mehr Motivation geben, Ihnen hochwertige Lösungen zu liefern und unseren Arbeitstag zu genießen.

Unsere neuen Räumlichkeiten in der Ulica pobijenih franjevaca(ehemalige Obilazna cesta) 25 offiziell eröffnet!

Neues Büro in Široki Brijeg

Posao Global Soft-a širi se i zahtijeva novu infrastrukturu. Uredi naše središnjice u Trnskoj cesti 146 postali su premaleni za sve naše uposlenike. Ne samo to, htjeli smo našem osoblju dati visoko-standardnan, moderan i funkcionalan prostor.

Plan se razvijao i radovi su se izvodili na novoj lokaciji u posljednjih pola godine, a početak ove godine podudario se sa završetkom novog ureda.

Prije dva dana naš prostor u Ulici pobijenih franjevaca (bivša Obilazna cesta) 25 službeno je otvoren!

U uredu je održana zdravica s uposlenicima, partnerima i klijentima, nakon čega je uslijedilo druženje uz večeru i glazbu uživo.

Neka nam novi ured da još više motivacije da proizvodimo visokokvalitetna rješenja i uživamo u svakom radnom danu.

Naš prostor u Ulici pobijenih franjevaca (bivša Obilazna cesta) 25 službeno je otvoren!

One more affirmation of security of our system and products came just at the end of 2022. We obtained ISO 27001:2013 certificate!



ISO/IEC 27001 is the world’s best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS) and their requirements. Being ISO 27001 compliant confirms we deliver secure products, keep  systems safe from threats and protect information.



Our system had already satisfied a number of ISO 27001 requirements and we worked on the aspects we had yet to satisfy to become completely compliant. The certificate is issued by RIGCERT certification body.



In addition to securing business processes, ISO 27001 compliance is a requirement for products and services in certain countries, which, being present in multiple markets, enables us to satisfy the requirement.



We continue to implement the security requirements in our everyday business, as well as in developing products and services.

One more affirmation of security of our system and products came just at the end of 2022. 

Eine weitere Bestätigung für die Sicherheit unseres Systems und unserer Produkte kam gerade Ende 2022. Wir haben das Zertifikat ISO 27001:2013 erhalten!

 

ISO/IEC 27001 ist die weltweit bekannteste Norm für Managementsysteme für die Informationssicherheit (ISMS) und deren Anforderungen. Die Konformität mit ISO 27001 bestätigt, dass wir sichere Produkte liefern, Systeme vor Bedrohungen schützen und Informationen bewahren.

 

Unser System erfüllte bereits eine Reihe von ISO 27001-Anforderungen, und wir arbeiteten an den Aspekten, die wir noch nicht erfüllt hatten, um die vollständige Konformität zu erreichen. Das Zertifikat wird von der Zertifizierungsstelle RIGCERT ausgestellt.

 

Neben der Sicherung von Geschäftsprozessen ist die Einhaltung von ISO 27001 in bestimmten Ländern eine Voraussetzung für Produkte und Dienstleistungen, und da wir auf mehreren Märkten vertreten sind, können wir diese Anforderung erfüllen.

 

Wir setzen die Sicherheitsanforderungen weiterhin in unserem Tagesgeschäft sowie bei der Entwicklung von Produkten und Dienstleistungen um.

Eine weitere Bestätigung für die Sicherheit unseres Systems und unserer Produkte kam gerade Ende 2022.

ISO 27001 - Zertifikat

Još jedna potvrda sigurnosti našeg sustava i proizvoda stigla je baš na kraju 2022. Dobili smo certifikat ISO 27001:2013!

ISO/IEC 27001 je najpoznatiji svjetski standard za upravljanje sustavima informacijske sigurnosti (information security management systems - ISMS) i njihovim zahtjevima. Usklađenost s ISO 27001 potvrđuje da dostavljamo sigurne proizvode, održavamo sustave sigurnima od prijetnji i štitimo informacije.

Naš sustav već je bio zadovoljavao veliki broj ISO 27001 zahtjeva te smo radili na aspektima koje smo još trebali zadovoljiti da bismo zadovoljili potpunu usklađenost (compliance). Certifikat je izdalo certifikacijsko tijelo RIGCERT.

Uz to što osigurava poslovne procese, ISO 27001 usklađenost zahtjev je koji proizvodi i usluge moraju zadovoljiti u određenim zemljama, što nama, budući da smo prisutni na više tržišta, omogućava da zadovoljimo i taj zahtjev.

Nastavljamo implementirati sigurnosne zahtjeve u našem svakodnevnom poslovanju, kao i u razvoju proizvoda i usluga.

Još jedna potvrda sigurnosti našeg sustava i proizvoda stigla je baš na kraju 2022.

Global Soft developers seek to broaden their knowledge and soak it up from other developers which, on the other hand, are eager to share things they know more about. That is the concept our internal workshops are based on. 

In Decemeber, a Docker workshop was held by one of our DevOps Engineers. All developers, backend and frontend, from the company, took part in one-day workshop. 

The aim of the workshop was to up the level of knowledge and usage of Docker, being a tool present in everyday life of a developer. Extending their knowledge from users perspective, developers can use it to some extent in their daily tasks.



In Decemeber, a Docker workshop was held by one of our DevOps Engineers.

Die Entwickler von Global Soft streben immer danach, ihr Wissen zu erweitern und von anderen Entwicklern zu lernen, die wiederum bereit sind, ihr Wissen weiterzugeben. Das ist das Konzept, auf dem unsere internen Workshops basieren.

 

Im Dezember wurde ein Docker-Workshop von einem unserer DevOps-Ingenieure abgehalten. Alle Backend- und Frontend-Entwickler des Unternehmens nahmen an dem eintägigen Workshop teil.

 

Ziel des Workshops war es, die Kenntnisse und die Nutzung von Docker zu verbessern, da es sich um ein Tool handelt, das im Alltag eines Entwicklers präsent ist. Indem sie ihr Wissen aus der Sicht der Benutzer vertiefen, können die Entwickler es bis zu einem gewissen Grad bei ihren täglichen Aufgaben einsetzen.

Interner Docker-Workshop

Developeri Global Soft-a traže načine da prošire svoje znanje i upiju ga od drugih developera, koji, su, s druge strane, voljni podijeliti stvari o kojima znaju više. To je koncept na kojem su bazirane naše interne radionice.

U prosincu je održana jednodnevna Docker radionica, koju je održao jedan od naših DevOps inženjera. Svi developeri iz Global Soft-a, backend i frontend, sudjelovali su u ovoj jednodnevnoj radionici.

Cilj radionice bio je povećati razinu znanja i korištenja Docker-a, budući da je to alat prisutan u svakodnevnom životu jednog developera. Proširenjem znanja o njemu iz perspektive korisnika, developeri ga mogu do određene razine koristiti u dnevnim zadacima.

Tijekom radionice, koja će trajati 3 sata, od 16:00 do 19:00, 3 dana u tjednu, tijekom dva mjeseca, naši iskusni programeri podijelit će svoje znanje i iskustvo s odabranim kandidatima. Naučit ćete osnovna pravila razvoja i razviti aplikaciju koristeći frontend i backend tehnologije. Na kraju radionice moći ćete izraditi vlastiti projekt kojim ćete dokazati naučeno, a koji ćete kasnije moći koristiti u svom fakultetskom obrazovanju ili obogatiti svoj portfolio za bolje rezultate na tržištu rada.





Što je potrebno za sudjelovanje? 



Najprije pošaljite prijavu i životopis do 23. ožujka na email info@globalsoft.ba, s naznakom „Prijava za radionicu“. Bitno je imati volju za učenjem i osnovno znanje o principima programiranja. U slučaju da broj prijava premaši raspoloživi kapacitet, prednost će imati kandidati s osnovnim predznanjem i razumijevanjem načela programiranja u odnosu na one bez osnovnog znanja.



Ova radionica izvrsna je prilika za sve one koji žele ući u svijet programiranja, unaprijediti svoje vještine i naučiti nešto novo. Ne propustite priliku naučiti web programiranje, direktno od naših iskusnih stručnjaka. Prijavite se danas i počnite svoje putovanje - da postanete web programer.

Počevši od travnja 2023., održavat ćemo besplatnu radionicu web programiranja za pojedince koji žele naučiti osnove web razvoja.

Globalsoft Code Camp  - Free web programming workshop

On Monday, April 3rd, we started with our Globalsoft code camp. More than 50 accepted candidates were divided into three groups, two basic and one advanced, and they will spend the next two months under the tutelage and mentorship of our developers Ante and Josip to learn the fundamentals of web application development, dabbing into both frontend and backend, with the goal of having everyone learn how to set up a basic web app by themselves. Who knows, maybe a future Globalsoft team member is hiding somewhere among these students! If you were too late to apply this time, there will be more code camps and workshops in the future, so stay tuned.

Am Montag, dem 3. April, haben wir mit unserem Globalsoft Code-Camp begonnen. Die über 50 angenommenen Kandidaten wurden in drei Gruppen eingeteilt, zwei davon für Anfänger und eine für Fortgeschrittene, und sie werden die nächsten zwei Monate unter der Anleitung und Betreuung unserer Entwickler Ante und Josip verbringen, um die Grundlagen der Web-App-Entwicklung zu erlernen, sowohl im Frontend-Bereich wie im Backend-Bereich, so dass jeder lernen kann, eine einfache Web-App selbstständig zu entwickeln. Wer weiß, vielleicht versteckt sich ja ein künftiges Globalsoft-Teammitglied irgendwo unter diesen Studenten! Falls Sie dieses Mal zu spät dran waren, um sich anzumelden - machen Sie sich keine Sorgen! In Zukunft wird es weitere Code-Camps und Workshops geben, also bleiben Sie dran.

U ponedjeljak, 3. travnja, započeli smo naš Globalsoft code camp. Više od 50 prihvaćenih kandidata razdijeljeno je u tri grupe, dvije osnovne i jednu naprednu, koje će provesti iduća dva mjeseca pod mentorstvom naših developera Ante i Josipa kako bi naučili temelje razvoja web aplikacija, ulazeći i u frontend i u backend, sa krajnjim ciljem da nauče kako sami napraviti osnovnu web aplikaciju. Tko zna, možda se među njima krije i neki budući član Globalsoft tima! Ako ste okasnili za prijavu ovaj put, bit će još code campova i radionica u budućnosti, pa nas pratite.
