  • Attending October’s NEPA.js meet up

    On Tuesday, October 10 I attended October’s NEPA.js meet up. John George of NEPA Web Solutions was this month’s presenter and his topic was Bitcoin and the Blockchain: Democratizing How We Exchange Value. I believe all members of NEPA.js would agree, John’s presentation was arguably the best presentation the meet up group has had to-date.…

    Den Temple, fellow NEPA.js attendee, hopped a bus to New York City for a developer conference: A three-hour bus ride and one sleepless night in a hostel later, I find myself attending NativeScript Developer Day in NYC. Glad he shared his notes. Reminder: attend meetups!

  • Attending September’s NEPA.js meetup

    On September 12th, NEPA.js held its September meetup. Anthony Altieri presented on beacons – the typically small Bluetooth devices that “chirp” some very basic information multiple times per second allowing app developers to understand the proximity of a user. This allows for things like understanding where a shopper is in a retail space. His overview…

  • John George shares a solution

    John George, fellow NEPA.js attendee: I’m writing this because I discovered the hard way that .NET Core’s ‘dotnet run’ command is NOT meant to be production ready. My biggest headache was that my website shut down when I exited my shell. Not even the ‘disown’command would dissociate the running service from the user. Posts like this…

  • Attending the August NEPA.js Meet up

    The NEPA.js Meet up is really hitting its stride. Each meet up is pretty well supported – even in the summer – and the camaraderie and general feeling around each event is pretty great. Also, the Slack channel is pretty active. If you’re within an hour or so of Scranton I’d recommend joining the meet…

Our presentation was about automation and all of the things we can automate in our lives personally and professionally.

  • Attending February’s NEPA.js meet up

    NEPA.js is quickly becoming my favorite tech-related event to attend. On Monday night at the Scranton Enterprise Center a solid group of attendees listened and shared in Jason Washo’s presentation on whether or not to handwrite or generate JavaScript through transpiling. Jason is a big believer in transpiling JavaScript but he kept his presentation balanced…

  • Attending the Wilkes-Barre Programming meetup

    On Saturday I braved the frigid temperatures and attended a Wilkes-Barre Programming meetup at the Osterhout Free Library in downtown Wilkes-Barre. I arrived a few minutes late – it was Saturday so of course I had to make myself some breakfast, enjoy my coffee, watch a little YouTube prior to getting out in the elements…

Mark Keith, a JavaScript developer who somewhat recently moved into the area, was the organizer and TecBridge – who organizes the NEPA Tech meetup group – helped to coordinate, host, organize and provide pizza for this brand-new group. The common refrain…
