Join us for our last meetup of the year as Scott Nonnenberg shows us how to apply quality software design principles and habits to our JavaScript development. Here's what he has to say...

Yep, javascript is a scripting language, and many consider it just a necessary evil of web development. But you're still spending time writing it, right? Perhaps more importantly, you're also debugging it. Let's talk about a few techniques you can use to start thinking about it like the rest of your "real" coding. Almost all of what I'll cover applies both to server and browser javascript."

About Scott:

Scott is all about best practices, as a Computer Science major turned Visual Studio project manager, consultant, and entrepreneur. Having recently left the consulting company he co-founded in early 2012, LIFFFT, he's now developing applications to help people optimize their lives at Scott Nonnenberg Software. He loves the practical power of javascript for both browser interactivity and server programming via node.js.
