May 2024 - Junior Dev Meetup with Dan Harris and Daniel van der Ploeg

Junior Dev meetup is back at the Belgian with two awesome presenters!

As usual, there will be plenty of time allocated before, in-between and after the talks for chats with other cool people like yourself (also known as networking 🤮)

🎙 Talks

Organisational Delight: The pros and cons of working at different kinds of businesses as a Junior.

There are many types of organisations out there, all of which will hire at some point or another. As a Junior early in your career, it can be difficult to understand the possibilities that joining these businesses might bring. For instance, what is a 'Product SaaS' company? Or how does working in Government differ from a Creative Agency? Let's look at a bunch of the different org types that exist, and the kinds of benefits (and drawbacks) that they might bring to your career.

Demystifying DevOps: Automating Web Deployment with GitHub Pipelines

As a junior developer, understanding how deployment works in the real world can be a challenge. Through a hands-on demonstration, you'll learn how to set up a GitHub repository, create a pipeline, and configure it to automatically run tests and deploy your website whenever changes are pushed. We'll cover the fundamentals of continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) and show you how to implement these practices using GitHub Actions.
