Gemini CLI in Action by Wietse Venema

Join Wietse Venema’s session on using Gemini CLI to tame any codebase with familiar tools—your shell, filesystem, Google Search and even web fetching—through live, repeatable demos. No dry doc walkthroughs here: you’ll see how to quickly onboard into unfamiliar projects, follow an “Explore, Plan, Code, Commit” feature development flow, and slip Gemini into CI/CD pipelines or build scripts with its non-interactive mode.

You’ll also pick up tips for automating repetitive tasks with custom commands, dive into interactive data exploration (hello, on-the-fly Python scripts and visualizations), and learn how to hook up external services to extend Gemini’s power. By the end, you’ll know how to structure clear, iterative workflows that fit right into your day-to-day software engineering routine.
