Welcome to the EdinburghJS October Meetup! We'll be meeting on Tuesday 21st October, 18:30 for light refreshments and talks at the TravelPerk offices, Nova House, 3-5 Ponton Street.
Our talk this month is from Emmanuel Demey on WordPress+Astro.
If you are interested in speaking at this, or any of our other events, then please get in touch via our speaking and volunteering form, or join our Scottish Technology Club Discord Server. We are happy to accomodate small "lightning talks" alongside our main talk for people to showcase projects, or to take their first steps in speaking at an event.
Our talks aim to introduce members of the community, fostering networking, mentorship, learning, and collaboration. Everyone is welcome—whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned engineer.
Enjoy pizza and drinks before the talks—a great chance to network with fellow JavaScript enthusiasts.
A livestream will be available on the evening on the Scottish Technology Club YouTube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@scottechclub - thanks to LiveToAir.
If travel costs are a barrier to attending, please let us know—we have a diversity and hardship fund to assist.
Space is limited, so please keep your RSVP status up to date to help others attend if you can no longer make it, and also to give us an idea of numbers to provide catering for.
