Hello everyone,
JavaScript, the web programming language, is becoming the new "write once, run everywhere" as consequence of its ubiquitous nature driven by the web's. It's also one of the most controversial and misunderstood scripting languages. Even more confusing, JS frameworks and libraries are popping up massively on daily basis and even conquering the server-side. A lot more than one can expect of a scripting language designed and implemented by a single guy in 10 days!
Our community aims to develop critical JavaScript skills by providing a platform enabling knowledge sharing and experience discussion, all this by organizing meetups as often as possible. We will cover web development as a whole and will try to keep up with the continuously evolving web technologies, front-end and back-end as much, with focus on:
- JavaScript: versions, features, common mistakes, best practices and tools.
- JS Libraries: jQuery, Underscore/Lo-dash, ...
- JS MV* client-side frameworks: Backbone.js, Ember.js, AngularJS by Google, ...
- Node.js the server-side platform running JS and Node.js-based web frameworks (Express, Tower.js, Meteor, ...)
- Web technologies: HTML5, CSS3, and server-side technologies
- Web development: workflow, testing, performance optimization and tools.
- The idea behind the community
- JavaScript history and evolution
- AngularJS, the powerful client-side MVC framework by Google
- Node.js, the server-side platform running JavaScript and empowering various kinds of web frameworks (API centric, real-time driven, ...)
- ... (any suggested topic)
- Future meetups planning
We are also looking for JavaScript professionals who are willing to give presentation about their experience in order to motivate beginners. Please contact us if you're interested.
Finally, we invite you to:
Looking forward to see you among us.
