June SoCal React: TypeScript & Draft.js for React

(SoCal React will now be taking place every second Wednesday of every month so mark your calendars!)

React (https://facebook.github.io/react/) - a framework for web and mobile apps - is growing rapidly and we as a community are growing with it. Every month, we bring together a group of incredible speakers to talk about React.

For this month's meetup, join us for two great talks on TypeScript and Draft.js, brought to you by Kristian Freeman of Bytesized (https://bytesized.xyz/) and Shahan Khan & Brandon Shin of Polymail (https://polymail.io/).

TypeScript for React: In this talk, Kristian will cover the basics of TypeScript, including its features and syntax as well as rewriting JavaScript code into TypeScript, and why a team working with JavaScript and React might consider using it.

Draft.js and React: Learn the ins and outs of Draft.js and how to get started as Shahan and Brandon go over how to build a rich text editor with widgets using Draft.js.
