A casual weekly virtual chat mostly focused on web and software development.

Weekly Dev Chat is a place to ask questions, hear different viewpoints, and get to know your fellow developers. Every week there is an initial topic posted to get the discussion started. Sometimes we discuss the initial topic the entire chat, and other times the topic changes several times through the natural flow of the conversation.

Everyone and anyone are welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others.

Year in Review

This is our last meeting of the year. Looking back, what are your highlights? Disappointments? Did you jump into the AI pool? Learn a new tool, framework, or language? In your work, what was most annoying? What got in your way? What gave you the biggest boost in productivity? What was the most fun? Did you get a promotion? Did you change roles?

Everyone and anyone are welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others. Zoom link will be posted at 12pm MDT.

Self-hosting: What gives?

Everyone and anyone are welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others. Zoom link will be posted at 12pm MDT.
