*** UPDATED SPEAKERS!!! 😃 ***

Jordan Morris - Digital Accessibility Consultant
"Growth Mindset vs Fixed Mindset"
A discussion surrounding how we can block ourselves from learning and what we can do to destroy those mental barriers.

Julian Scharf - Senior Software Engineer
"Let's Close Jest! 🧪🧬🔬 "
A half hour virtual workshop where we build a tiny widdle testing library! And it works like jest. So we get an idea of what's happening under the hood. Testing libraries and test runners are actually a lot less intimidating than you think.

NOTE: For Julian's talk, this will be in Javascript and can be followed along with anyone who has an editor and npm installed.

VS Code - https://code.visualstudio.com/
NPM (Mac) - https://treehouse.github.io/installation-guides/mac/node-mac.html
NPM (Windows) - https://treehouse.github.io/installation-guides/windows/node-windows.html

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Virtual link will be made available approximately one (1) hour before the event, and only if you have RSVP'd to attend.

Please keep an eye out for further updates closer to the event time.

We can't wait to see you there! 😃
