We're a group of software developers based on the South Shore of Massachusetts who are interested in learning, growing and sharing software development ideas, tools and techniques. The South Shore isn't the technology hub of Boston, but there are a lot of great developers who either live or work here. We'll have monthly meetings dedicated to sharing what we're working on, learning about new frameworks and best practices, and perhaps hoisting a few beers & slices of pizza while we're at it. Curre …

Our monthly events are not your typical software engineering events and will cover a wide range of software programming related topics, techniques, frameworks, and technologies from local companies and educational institutions.  Events will either consist of speakers, panels, or training sessions.  The focus is placed on emerging technologies alongside current technologies and techniques. We will provide information on application development, software engineering, HTML5, Hadoop, Python, Eclipse …

Attendees will have the chance to learn from proven development teams. They'll be inspired to respond to user data faster with kind of outside-of-the-box solutions that you can expect from …

This is a weekly, open invitation to all web dev/design types looking to work on their projects alongside other like-minded folks.  We'll have snacks and drinks, and we wouldn't say no to a little BYOB.
