Event review: BrisJs - Introducing the typescript compiler; Atomic design; Scrutinising the norm

I attended the first BrisJS meetup of the year last night. This was my first time attending a “programming language-centric” meetup, and I was surprised to find around 100 people in attendance. All presenters and the majority of the crowd looked to be in their 20’s, and while the presentations didn’t have the level of polish that I would usually expect for an event of this size, I was still able to learn a few things, and more importantly, have some interesting conversations with other developers about projects they are working on and opportunities in the market.

Event review: Collaborate at RCL

I attended “Collaborate at RCL” last night, an event hosted by River City Labs, described as follows: What do you do when you have an amazing business idea, but you don’t have the skills or resources to make it happen? Help others with their ideas, and they’ll help you with yours! That’s the idea behind Collaborate @ RCL. Meet some great people, learn some new skills, and work on some fantastic businesses - all at the same time.
