Last week, Facebook teamed up with Wyncode Academy, TheVentureCity and WM.Digital to launch the first Developer Circles in North America.
Facebook’s Dev Circles empower a diverse range of technical talent to improve their skills and access the information they need.
The sold-out event at Wynbase brought together over 100 developers of varying levels to learn about React. React is a JavaScript library created by Jordan Walke, a software engineer at Facebook. Wyncode teaches React as part of its 10 week immersive course and in its new part-time Front End Web Development course.
The speakers included:
* Chris Stegner of MadDev, who was selected Technology Entrepreneur of the Year by the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce and has hired a Wyncoder Developer, spoke about why his firm uses Reac
* Adrian Martin of CareCloud, who have hired 13 Wyncode Developers, presented React JS basics
* Wyncode’s own Ed Toro live coded how to add React into an existing software stack using Rails as an example
Missed the event? Watch the Facebook Live feed here and make sure to join Developer Circles from Facebook to sign up for the next event.
