We'll have a series of five minute lightning talks about topics related to Node.js. Here's the lineup so far:
- An Intro to Node.js: A quick rundown of the basic principles of Node.js and what types problems it's meant to solve. We'll record this one so we won't have to repeat it at future events.
- Setting up a node development environment with nvm and npm: Developing applications with Node.js begins with setting up a development environment. Learn how nvm can help you manage multiple versions of node and how npm can help you use libraries from other developers and share your own.
- Demo of the requisitioner module: Requisitioner takes node style modules and wraps them to make them compatible with Asynchronous Module Definition, and usable in a web browser.
We have room for a few more talks. If you'd like to present, send your topic to @developmentseed or info@developmentseed.org. We'll have a projector, screen, and internet, and slides and demos are welcome.
The meetup will kick off at 7:00 pm, and we'll start the lightning talks at 7:30 pm after a round of introductions. Bring some beer/drinks to share with the group - we'll provide the fridge and some snacks. RSVP here and hope to see you there!
