JavaScript Hack Night

JavaScript Hack Night

This is a chance for JavaScript developers of all skill levels to get together, work on, patch, and release open source code, ask questions, get help with tricky bugs, and spend time coding JavaScript! New to JavaScript and/or not sure what to work on? We've got a fun activity planned!

It's Battle Time!

Put your JavaScript skills to the test by creating a robot tank to fight!

Teach your tank the maneuvers and techniques required to earn the title of Supreme JavaScript Tank Overlord! This activity is fun for coders of all skill levels and requires no environment setup, although you do need a Github (https://github.com) account to login.
