Started in 2010, London HalfStack is a London-based JavaScript community. Monthly meetup events focus on general JavaScript and TypeScript topics and include all things interesting in the desktop and mobile web world. After the monthly talks, we meet at CodeNode or another pub for drinks and further discussions.
Each November, we run an annual conference in a pub in the Shoreditch area. The conference focuses on UI-centric topics such as audio/video, data visualization and graphics, WebGL, speech recognition, Web AR/VR/XR, devices, games, and other inspiring talks.
We meet the 2nd Tuesday of every month at 18:00 at Skills Matter. For the larger events we can accommodate approximately 125 guests. Hosts include Dylan Schiemann (Dojo, SitePen, and Intern), Piotr Zalewa (MooTools, JSFiddle), Mustafa Celik (Intipi), Andy Richardson (Thomson Reuters), and Joe Lee.
For each meetup, we have two 30-60 minute presentations by invited guests. After each event, we head to a local pub. Software engineers, web developers, and anyone interested in learning more about Ajax, JavaScript, HTML5, and mobile should join.
Sorry, looks like London HalfStack haven't got any events scheduled for the moment!
