What we’re about

Bleeding Edge Web is a meetup for the discerning web developer. Find out more at http://www.edgeatx.org

Our format goes beyond the typical single-framework/language meetup:

News From the Bleeding Edge
Things are changing and new things are emerging in web tech at such a rapid pace that it's almost impossible to keep up. We'll begin each meetup with a recap of the most interesting news each month related to JavaScript tools and frameworks, browsers, HTML5, mobile, web architecture and anything else that modern web developers would want to know about. You won't want to miss this!

Topic of the Month
We want each meetup to focus on one or two specific areas of web technology and dive into them deeply enough to be really informative. There are so many tools, libraries and frameworks out there that no one has time to evaluate everything. Just a few examples of things we might cover, in no particular order: React, Node, Vue, ES2017/18/19+, webpack, web performance, W3C standards, etc. Basically, you don't have time to attend every topic-specific meetup in the world, so we'll bring the most interesting topics to our meetup!

Wed, May 28, 2025, 6:00 PM CDTInfrastructure as Code with AWS CDK and TypeScript
Expedia Group Austin, Austin, TX
This talk introduces AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) and demonstrates using TypeScript to define cloud infrastructure in code. We’ll explore the core concepts of CDK, including apps, stacks, and constructs, and walk through building a simple AWS stack using familiar programming patterns. You’ll learn how CDK helps developers manage infrastructure with greater flexibility and maintainability, while also covering best practices, real-world use cases, and how CDK compares to other Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform. Whether you're new to CDK or looking to deepen your understanding, this session will provide practical insights and code examples to get you started deploying cloud resources in a developer-friendly way.

Speaker:
Ted Patrick, the Co-founder/CTO of Acumity—an AI Application focused on Human Intelligence—will lead the discussion.
