Apr 29: Aligning Node Core API with the Web & Finding a lost song with Node.js!

Hey everyone! We're back for our first meetup of 2021 fully remote!

Delighted to welcome 2 speakers this month, James Snell from NearForm and Luciano Mammino from fourTheorem. This will be our first ever online meetup, please feel free to invite your friends and colleagues.

First Talk: Aligning the Node.js Core API with the Web - James Snell

While JavaScript reigns supreme on both the client-side and server-side, it has always been difficult to write code once that works in both environments. In this talk, James will introduce some of the ongoing efforts to better align Node.js APIs with the client-side and what additional efforts to expect in the near future.

Second Talk: Finding a lost song with Node.js async iterators - Luciano Mammino

Did you ever get that feeling when a random song pops into your brain and you can’t get rid of it? Well, that happened to me recently and I couldn’t even remember the title of the damn song! In this talk, I want to share with you the story of how I was able to recover the details of the song by navigating some music-related APIs using JavaScript, Node.js and the magic of async iterators!
