Angular Meetup @ Home

After a brief COVID hiatus, we’re happy to have secured the date for our first virtual Angular Meetup on June 23. The event will kick off at 6 with some fun Angular-esque trivia and the chance to win a Pluralsight gift card.

There will be a series of breakout sessions throughout the event. We’d like to make sure these are tailored towards the needs of the community, so please let us know what types of sessions interest you here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdNXcHHbQr1fSvQUmhFjVicigW6wkNN5zL_K9hGgODGWPjdaw/viewform

We are also excited to announce two confirmed presenters: Aravind, a Haligonian living in Vancouver and REDspace’s Director of Client Engineering, Andrew Hamilton.

We still have a couple tricks up our sleeve so join us on the 23rd to find out what they are. More details to come.

Last but not least, we don’t want to limit the great conversations to the events only so we have joined forces with the Halifax ReactJS Meetup and have created a shared Slack organization “Halifax Dev Meetups”. Join us here to talk all things tech: https://halifaxdevmeetups.slack.com/
