JavaScript Golf 3
Async Brighton
Come and join us on Thursday October 6th where Tom Parslow - long time Async attendee and chief code typer at Buzzshot.com, will task us to solve a series of challenges using JavaScript. The catch - you have to write as little JavaScript as possible. Solve each challenge in the least number of characters to win the game. Imagine the kind of stuff you’d never want to see make it into a real codebase… that’s what we’re looking for!
We are making an effort to ensure that this episode of JavaScript Golf will be suitable for people of all skill levels, so even if you’re reasonably new to JavaScript you should still be able to tackle the challenges (and we’ll be on hand to help if you need it!). Even if you don’t get the fewest number of characters we hope that the majority of attendees will learn a little something about JavaScript from each other along the way. So, don’t forget to bring your laptop, tablet, phone, or whatever you feel comfortable writing code on (with a text editor installed).
As with our previous event you will be able to join us in-person, or online (via Zoom).
As always we welcome people of all backgrounds and experience levels, so whether you've got a few years under your belt, or you're just starting to look into development we'd love to have you along.
In-person attendees: please arrive at Spaces (ground floor) between 19:15 and 19:30 for snacks and socializing before the event, and make sure you are registered to attend so we have an idea of numbers for catering. If the gates to Trafalgar Place are closed, please ring the buzzer and a member of their security should let you in.
Remote attendees: we will start broadcasting the event at 19:45 at this zoom link, there is no need to register.

Just a reminder that we'll be running the 3rd iteration of JavaScript Golf this Thursday at Spaces.
If you don't have a laptop/tablet, etc that you can write code on, don't worry. People can team up to solve the challenges together, and we'll be wandering around to help you out if you need it.
Looking forward to see what you all come up with. 😁
