Portland JavaScript Admirers' Monthly Meeting

The monthly meeting of Portland's first JavaScript and ECMAscript users' group. We host presentations and discussions on everything JavaScript-related - including JavaScript frameworks, node.js, CoffeeScript, and whatever else comes up.

This month we will have Faddah Wolf presenting the 2nd in his series of brief tips: "Portland’s Own #stablegenius: Faddah’s Stupid JavaScript tricks #2!" leading into Ian Hofmann-Hicks on "The Category of Javascript."

"Coming from either a procedural or object oriented approach to application development, it can be difficult to start to form intuitions around or even know where to begin in our understanding of functional programming concepts. In order to start building a solid foundation that will make this transition easier, we will build out a simple and naive Category defining our beloved Javascript. Along the way we will put some meaning to some of the strange new words and type signatures that we are bound to encounter along our journey."

Feel free to join our mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/pdxjs if you too are a JavaScript admirer. Or visit our web site for more information at http://pdxjs.com/ .

If you're interested in making a presentation at this or at a future meet-up, please e-mail speakatpdxjs@gmail.com .
