25 coders. 25 websites. A lot of pizza 🍕
The January Personal Websites Code Jam at @glasgowjs.org was exactly the nudge I needed to make progress. 😃

Thank you to everyone who came along to the Code Jam last night! Thanks to Matt for finding us the venue and to AddJam for sponsoring the catering. 🙌
To find us tonight use the North Portland Street entrance, level three. Go along to the right, past the neon bars and the “3”. At the end past the study booths is the room. Big GlasgowJS banner by the door.
Please note the change of venue for the Personal Websites Code Jam tonight - now meeting at Teaching and Learning Building 329 at the University of Strathclyde
With a live and interactive demo! 🙌

Ricardo in the seats in front of the organisers and speakers of the conference gathering on stage
👋 shout out to @cityjsconf.bsky.social - Ricardo won the ticket prize draw at @glasgowjs.org and loved attending - "It was fabulous!"
I guess it wouldn't hurt to share it on here, but I'm currently looking for front-end roles in Glasgow, mainly working with TypeScript, Tailwind and React/Vue. If anyone knows about any positions or teams that might be looking for those skills, please feel free to DM me ✨
I recently attended a fantastic talk from @sergiocast97.bsky.social at @glasgowjs.org and it was a really interesting look at TailwindCSS and Figma design systems!
...and after talk drinks at the pub 🍻
