JSter #103: Libraries, Articles, techniques, and more
JavaScript, now.
I spent roughly a week in Prague and wrote about my experiences in WebExpo 2017. In short, another great place in Europe to visit.
In other news, we are going to organize React Finland at the end of April 2018 in Helsinki. The event will gather around three hundred React enthusiasts. We'll have a workshop day and two days for presentations in a single-track format.
