Monthly DenverScript Meetup

Whats going on in JavaScript Land? (20min)

We'll be talking about new/exciting things going on in the industry. If you have something you think we should mention, feel free to tweet us @DenverScript (https://twitter.com/denverscript).

Shorter Presentation(10 - 15min):

React Zest and Publishing npm Modules - Alan Smith

Learn how to develop and publish helpful modules to npm. We'll be using React Zest as an example module

Longer Presentation(20 - 30min):

Unit Testing React Components - Ken Hoff

It's pretty easy to write unit tests for pure JavaScript functions, but how the heck to do you do user interaction testing for React components? In "Unit Testing React Components", you'll learn how to render your React components into a synthetic DOM, how to query the synthetic DOM for automated testing, and how to stub/spy methods and components inside your tests

Ken Hoff is a full-stack JavaScript developer and consultant based out of Boulder, CO. More about him and his work at https://hoff.tech/ . He likes making dumb fun web stuff, building/streaming/playing games, and adventuring the country in his old VW bus.

Socialize:

We'll have beer and pizza! We'll also allow people to announce any job opportunities they may have at that time so you can socialize with potential applicants.
