Costa Rica JS

A Costa Rican JavaScript developer community built through meetups, technical workshops, and NodeSchool events.

I helped organize Costa Rica JS from 2012, growing a local developer community that eventually exceeded 2,000 members.

I organized meetups and hands-on workshops, including NodeSchool Costa Rica, as Node.js and modern JavaScript frameworks became more widely adopted. We focused on practical learning and sharing experience among developers.

The community also became a place for professional connections, collaboration, and employment opportunities.

Selected contributions

  • Co-organized Costa Rica JS on Meetup from 2012 and grew it past 2,000 developers.
  • Organized regular meetups, workshops, and NodeSchool Costa Rica events.
  • Ran hands-on workshops as Node.js and modern web frameworks arrived in the region.
