We wanted a community where developers and designers of all skill-levels and interests could come together and freely discuss everything front-end. So we made it, it’s called HFX.js.
Are you into the latest design trends? Great! Do you want to share and hear about all things JavaScript? Perfect!
This event will have speakers with varying backgrounds discussing front-end, and web tech. We will have 2 talks from local engineers of varying experience, from senior engineers with years of experience in the field of web, to up-and-comers looking to get their start. We encourage students, hobbyist, and professionals alike to come and join in creating the most open, and inclusive front-end community we can!
