Coding with React: Learn React Fast

Join us every Wednesday for Coding with React, a collaborative coding session to help you master React in a fun, supportive environment. Expect hands-on coding, pair work, and discussions on best practices, design patterns, and real-world React use cases. Meet fellow developers from Vancouver’s tech community—everyone’s welcome!

And yes—complimentary coffee and tea are on us ☕.

## ◼︎ Event Fees

💲 General Entry — $5 (2 hours)
This helps us cover the space, equipment, and refreshments. Think of it like buying a coffee, but instead of just caffeine, you’re also investing in your skills, network, and consistent React practice.

💲 Pair with an Advisor — $30 (2 hours)
If you want deeper guidance, you can pair directly with one of our experienced advisors for the entire session. This is essentially a 1:1 mentorship experience at just $15/hour—far below the usual $80–$150/hour rate for React coaching. It’s a fantastic way to accelerate your learning with direct feedback on your code, architecture decisions, and debugging process.
Both options give you incredible value compared to a regular study session - because here, you’re coding with peers and experts who are invested in your growth.
