Events schedule New!

One meetup every month, always the second Wednesday. Doors open 6pm. We keep the date free so you have no excuse to miss it.


  • Talks wanted. Bring one, the stage is yours.

  • Same again. Talk slots still wide open.

  • Closing the year the only way we know how. With JavaScript.

The pattern survives every year. Second Wednesday, doors 6pm, see you there.
