Angular / Frontend Mentoring
This is a relaxed, no-pressure meetup for anyone who wants to learn or improve their Angular or frontend skills.
I’ve been working with Angular and frontend stuff for quite a while and thought it’d be fun to help others out and share what I’ve learned. This isn’t a lecture or a course, more like hanging out, asking questions, looking at code, and figuring things out together.
You can join if you’re:
* totally new and just getting started
* stuck on something and need a second brain
* looking for tips, best practices, or code feedback
* or just want to chat frontend over coffee
It’s completely free, super informal, and beginner-friendly. Think chill coffee-shop vibes, not a classroom.
I have a separate sign-up list, and since this is just starting out, I’ll randomly pick a small number of people at first to keep things small and relaxed. Once I get a feel for it, I’ll slowly open it up to more folks over time.
**SignUp Form:** [https://forms.gle/RG92a93g944rYycr9](https://forms.gle/RG92a93g944rYycr9)
Location and time aren’t set yet, I’ll check in via WhatsApp to see what works best for everyone. Make sure to fill out the form, so I have your number.

FAQs:
Can I come alone?
Yes. Most attending will be coming on their own. This is a great way to connect and make new friends!

hike ending with the Lichtfestival of Lucern
**Walk description:**
The hike starts in front of the bus stop Schwarzenberg LU, Ennenmatt at 8:42. Then we walk to Luzern. Then we can see the illumination (see paragraph Lichtfestival )
You need to be fit and have good hiking shoes.
[von Schwarzenberg nach Luzern | Wanderung | Komoot](https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2737915842?share_token=aO07U0uw4szwpJv29htR3J0BFJsYKwQQ6Wrm4JVM7jHvrIW4lZ&ref=wtd)
I know this is a long hike but it is not the most difficult hike. Furthermore there are some obvious shortcuts if you are not sure to be able to make it. For instance between 2 and 3 or 1 and 4 (look at the map to understand what I am speaking about). Or you can decide to join only for the Lichtfestival. In this case, please say it in the WhatsApp group.
**About the Lichtfestival :**
[Lilu Lichtfestival Luzern](https://lichtfestivalluzern.ch/rundgang/)
We already have a lot to do with everything that is free but if you think something requiring a ticket can be worth don't hesitate to mention it in the whatsapp group.
**How to go with the train (from Zurich and I will meet you on the way):**

**Registration:**
To sign up, please select "Yes" in the WhatsApp community survey for this activity:
[🌄 Switzerland Discovery Crew (Preferred Ages 18-35)🌄 | WhatsApp-Kanal](https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaoercY1XquRrJm58k3V)
If the event will happen in more than 30 days, I haven't added the survey in the channel yet. (Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group)
If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group).
Please sign up only when you are certain!
You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.
