Coding Club: February

Every month we mix and mingle, discuss an advanced topic and work on some projects in collaboration setup. There is  usually no mentor,, but it is a group of experts sharing their experience, providing use-cases and more. If you'd like to share your experience and guide some activities, please let us know! 

we are excited to have a well packed Coding Club at Newburgh Free Library tonight - please come and network, learn and collaborate!

  • - Our own Hudson Valley startup founder Daniela Marquez is coming with UX-driven topic: she will walk the group through both map technology and UX decisions used to build the flower shopping experience on lovingly.com (appropriate timing for Valentine's Day too!)
  • - the special guest is coming from Albany: community broadband champion Art Ware will discuss the Upstate NY’s Communications Infrastructure Profile.- and the last but not the least
  • - or own hacker Lev Tsenovoi will share his experience finding his first junior developer job sharing his tips and tricks. This will lead us to the discussion what is wrong with recruiting in tech (or in NY?), and how we can fix it!
