TPDP Episode #30: Building a Developer Community with Meetups

The thirtieth episode of The Polyglot Developer Podcast is now available on the popular podcast networks! This episode is titled, Building a Developer Community with Meetups, and it features Vijay Menon, organizer of the JavaScriptLA Meetup group in Los Angeles, California.

Being a part of a developer community, outside of a day job, is important for all developers. Developer communities offer many benefits, some of which include learning about new and modern technologies or expanding your depth of knowledge on seasoned technologies.

Education is only one of the benefits, but Vijay and I explore many in this episode of the podcast, as well as building your own communities.

As always, this episode of the podcast can be listened to for FREE using one of your favorite podcast networks. Some of the popular networks include Spotify, iTunes, and Pocket Casts. However, if you’d prefer, you can also listen to the episode below.

If you’re in the Los Angeles or Orange County region, I encourage you to participate in JavaScriptLA. I’ve been to a few of the events, and they are well attended with a lot of awesome developers. If you’re in the Central Valley or East Bay area in California, you could even come participate in my Meetup group, The Tracy Developer Meetup.
