ReactJS IL First Meetup!

Hello everyone, I'm excited to announce our first Meetup ever!

Come join us for beers and informative talks on April 20th at the Shablul pub in Tel Aviv Port, Hangar 13 (a big Thank You to our friendly host - Wix Engineering!).

Did you see React.js mentioned somewhere and it peaked your interest? Did you take the next step and read about it - even went through a tutorial? Do you use React.js at work or in a pet project?
If the answer is YES to any of these questions then you'll enjoy what we got prepared for you:

React, Flux, Virtual DOM, one-way reactive data flow, JSX, components, reflux... How do I even begin?! In our first session - Doron Zavelevsky (http://il.linkedin.com/in/zavelevsky) from Applitools will help making sense of all this new terminology. In this talk you will be introduced to the motivations, considerations and advantages of React.js - in attempt to put everything in context.

In our second session Amit Kaufman (https://www.linkedin.com/in/amitkaufman), Website Editor Division Leader at Wix, having been working extensively with React on the #1 product of the company (only 50 million users), will share some of his team's hard-earned experience with React - followed by a live coding session. Nothing beats a live coding introduction!

Agenda:

18:00 – 18:30 Meet & Greet

18:30 – 19:15 How do I even React? (Doron Zavelevsky)

19:15 – 19:30 Break

19:30 – 20:15 Live Coding Introduction to React (Amit Kaufman)

Looking forward to see you all there!
