What we’re about
Welcome! This is a group for developers in and near San Francisco to learn about Ethereum, projects building on Ethereum, and how to build decentralized applications (Dapps). We have meetings about development tools for Ethereum, smart contract coding, in-depth looks at various companies/projects, the technical details of the Ethereum protocol, and sometimes other layer 1 protocols as well. See also our sister community, the Silicon Valley Ethereum meetup. We'd love to have you join us!
