A casual weekly virtual chat mostly focused on software development

Weekly Dev Chat is a place to ask questions, hear different view points, and get to know your fellow developers. Every week there is an initial topic posted to get the discussion started. Sometimes we discus the initial topic the entire chat, other times the topic changes several times through the natural flow of the conversation.

Everyone and anyone is welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others.

The YEG Javascript, Ruby and Python organizers are teaming up to bring back in person meetups and talks for people, to help explore development in those three languages, and on web and internet technologies more generically. We're also being supported by the Dev Edmonton Society from an organizational and logistical perspective. You can find out more at https://devedmonton.com/ where you can find links to the Dev Edmonton slack, where most of our organization happens. If you're interested in a chat, doing a talk, or learning more about Javascript, check out the link above and get onto the Slack!

And once you get there, check out the #meetup_javascript, #meetup_ruby, and #meetup_edmontonpy channels for more information on how you can get involved!

The talks for this month are:

Coming soon!

The meetup is sponsored by our community champions Jobber, Dotdash and Punchcard, and produced each month by the Edmonton JavaScript community. With COVID, we don't have as much need for sponsors at the moment, but we're always looking for support. If you want to support the Javascript and Ruby communities in specific, or devs in general, get in touch!

For more information, join us on the Dev Edmonton Slack at https://exchangejs.com/slack, and visit exchangejs.com (http://www.exchangejs.com/). You can also find us on Twitter at @EdmontonJS, or leave a comment below!

Please note that we now have a new meetup location in the Alberta Aviation Museum. Enter through the main entrance on the South side, and walk inside to the North end of the building to find the group.

We have not yet determined what the topic will be this month, so please check back a few days before the meetup for further details.

What is Open Hardware?

The Open Hardware Meetup is a place where all kinds of people can share an interest in the intersection of hardware, software, connectivity, and user experience. When combined, these elements create a new art which blends the lines of beauty and technology.

Even as computing devices have become more powerful, the underlying technology is now more and more available for everyone. With a few mouse clicks, overnight shipping, and a few hours work, you can build your own versions of ground-breaking products based on simple open platforms like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone, Galileo, Edison, and more. Even better, you can create something that has not physically existed. It is the flexibility and power of computing, expressed in physical, tangible form.

Who is it for?
Everyone is welcome, from casual observers to nascent hobbyists to advanced techs. Presentations will range from beginner how tos, to highlighting cool projects from Edmonton and Alberta. There is almost always food before and drinks after. We’re always open to new speakers and topics as requested by our members.

Examples of things we’ve done
-learn to solder,
-basics of arduino,
-automated basketball robots from a local high school team
-projected surfaces and their use in theatre set design,
-magnetic computer displays for the visually impaired

Examples of things we want to do
-lighting, home automation, wearables, drones/navigation, 3D printing, arduino, raspberry Pi, beaglebone and other open hardware platforms.
-workshops,
-build days, similar to hackathon, where a group of people with varying skills create and finish projects
-specialty sub-clusters where people can specialize in wearables, lighting and home automation, maker technology, and drones

We welcome you to Open Hardware Meetup and together we’ll create wow.
