We have an exciting event planned for Wed 4/13!Angular 2 HTTP Reimagined
Speaker: Google Angular Core team member Rob Wormald

Angular CLI
Speaker: Google Angular Core team member Hans Larsen

Early preview of Angular-CLI, the official Command Line tool which allows you to focus on features and logic, rather than boilerplate and infrastructure. Create a new project, pick the technologies you want, generate the structure you need and start coding!

Lightning Talk (15 min): Accessibility Test Coverage and Angular 2
Speaker: Marcy Sutton

Automated testing is a valuable tool for web development: you can prevent broken code from going out the door, document what your code does, and free up time you would spend testing on other development tasks. By also adding test coverage for accessibility, you can ensure that a passing build will be accessible to people with disabilities and that it will remain that way. In this talk, I’ll show you how to add accessibility test coverage to your Angular application and leverage accessibility domain knowledge with axe-core, an open source accessibility testing library.

Guest Badging System

We recommended pre-printed badges. To get a pre-printed badge, you must have a Yes RSVP (with a full first and last name listed) by 12p on Fri 4/8. Please note that badges cannot be created with incomplete name information.

If a pre-printed badge is not available for you when you arrive, you may create one on-demand, but due to the logistics of this process, please note there may be a long wait and this option will only be available until 7pm.

Getting to the meetup by public transit (MVgo West Bayshore Shuttle (http://mvgo.org/west-bayshore-route.html) from Caltrain)

FROM THE MOUNTAIN VIEW CALTRAIN STATION

Look for the MVgo (http://mvgo.org/index.html) Shuttle stop (2nd bus shelter in outer circle, near entrance (http://goo.gl/maps/uQv61) <--use "Satellite" view to see best). Take the shuttle to stop #3 (Charleston Rd @ Huff Ave NE) and then walk to Building 46 (approx a 1 minute walk).

Please note, the Caltrain area can be confusing due to all the different shuttles doing dropoff/pickups. Couple tips:

• Please look for a white shuttle van with an MVGo (http://mvgo.org) logo like this (https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/drawings/d/1X8e_s76pMjk1qO2hNhjFC_V0hDtP0k4RuOiXjgp7YW4/pub?w=960&h=720).

• Shuttle will have signage that reads, "West Bayshore".

The relevant stop times are below. Note that due to traffic, the buses do not always run according to this schedule. If a bus arrives early, it will wait until the shuttle time to depart, but if it is running late, it will only make a quick stop, so please keep an eye out.

Leaving MTV Caltrain (note, pickup times are approximate)
