Code & Coffee

Hi folks!

WANT TO HEAR A TALK ABOUT A THING?

Include #lattetopics in a tweet to @codecoffeeyvr (https://twitter.com/codecoffeeyvr) with talk requests & talk ideas. We'll share it with the community and some speakers will hopefully pick them up! 🗣

SCHEDULE:

6:30pm: Drink coffee, eat timbits and mingle!

6:45pm: Short Talks:

Kei Yamagishi (@kay_ya (https://twitter.com/kay_ya)) - SVG Animation 101

Animation enhances user experience and attraction in the web. I'll introduce basic concepts of SVG animation and ways to make it happen.

Arthur Camara (@arthur_camara (https://twitter.com/arthur_camara)) - How we almost lost 10,000 users

I made a big mistake when deploying new features for Toby, the Chrome extension I've been working on. Here are some of the things I learned in the process and how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.

7:30pm: Work/discussion period (for technology passion projects)

8:30pm: Thank you everyone!

Our talks are quick 10-15 minute presentations. We welcome speaker submissions from developers of any experience level. We require that speaker topics fall within the technology realm (ie. this is not the place to pitch a business idea). If you would like to speak at a future event, please send us a message or talk to us at one of the events. Check out our speaker's package here: http://github.com/Code-and-Coffee-YVR/Speaker-Package

MUST HAVE: A positive attitude and zero tolerance for stereotypes. See our Code of Conduct (https://www.meetup.com/Code-Coffee-Vancouver/pages/19153519/Code_of_Conduct/).
