Some Ideas to help you to pick and present:

• React Conf 2019... yeah that just happened and I missed it too. Anything to report?
• FE Testing tech?
• Create React App v. Gatsby v. NextJS. When should I do what?
• Will web components ever catch on?
• Whats unstated.io?
• Things I wish I knew in my first 2 years as a developer
• Database as a service for FE engineers that don't want to write a database
• Go over the different options you can pass to addEventListener()
• Compare/Contrast GraphQL to Rest APIs
• Which type of database should I use?
• Cool things a JS dev can do with Docker
• Netlify does more than deploy code
• A11Y Easy changes that make a big impact
• Why semicolons suck and why all bike sheds should be blue
• How to provide a radically candid code review

I could give a talk on a library I authored: Composi, Type Safe Functional Library with State Management.

@jordanpapaleo Some sort of voting system for proposed topics might be a good idea. I'd be interested in a few of the ones you mentioned.

[jordanpapaleo]

@mattdavis1121 Those are for you to volunteer for and present the topic. So which one do you pick :)

[rbiggs]

OK, so according to feedback from last night, I'll do a talk on TEA (The Elm Architecture) for React.

[redbearin]

I am happy to talk about synthetic biology (what is it), the current stage of synthetic biology programming language development, how JS is being used in the synthetic biology space now, and how this emerging field may impact JS programmers.

[jcoryalvernaz]

I can do a talk about GatsbyJS.

[jordanpapaleo]

Awesome! Please let me know if you want a company or something listed by your name. Ill be adding this to Meetup soon and putting it out there for a larger group to view.

[redbearin]

Just my name, Juliann Talkington, is fine. Thanks!

I could do a talk on Observables (rxjs), but the 7:55 pm slot is a bit too late for me (wife and child and all that).

[jordanpapaleo]

That's supposed to be 6:55. Is that still to late?

[troywweber7]

@jordanpapaleo Sorry for the late response, didn't get a notification. That is better at the very least. If you have someone dying to give a presentation at that time, they can have it, otherwise, I'll make it work!

Do we have a screen to throw up one or two really simple examples? Or should I bring print-outs?

[jordanpapaleo]

We have a TV that has an hdmi and we also have apple air play.

[rbiggs]

So, what's the venue for this meetup since Rue Burbon isn't available?

[jordanpapaleo]

Working on it. I think we can get the innovation center.

[troywweber7]

@jordanpapaleo have you reached out to Darryl Rubarth (my boss) yet?

[jordanpapaleo]

@troywweber7 Darryl is the backup but it looks like we have the innovation center. I have a call with them shortly to go over the details.

@rbiggs They do know our start time.

[jordanpapaleo]
