There is not an exclusive path to web development, and these 3 talks will guide you to find your own way.  Every web developer should attend this.


We are so excited about this meetup! We have three special women in tech that will share their experience and knowledge about their own path in web development. We will talk about JavaScript, frameworks, roadmaps and more.
