JSter #97: Libraries and more
It takes two to JavaScript
The Summer tour is nearing its end. Only Augsburg and London remain before a short visit to Finland.
Third tour is already being planned. It will likely begin from Vienna in form of webpack clinics at the end of July. A clinic is a supercharged version of my workshops. You will learn a lot about webpack in a two hour intense session as I walk you through my material in a small group.
I'm also going to participate in WebExpo2017 in September (22-23rd). It's great to return to Prague again.
PS. There's a hard-cover Edition of the webpack Book available now.
