Costa Rica JS
A JavaScript community founded in 2010 that grew past 2,000 developers through meetups, NodeSchool, and JSConf Costa Rica.
Costa Rica JS is a JavaScript community I founded in 2010. It grew past 2,000 developers through meetups, NodeSchool, and JSConf Costa Rica.
As founder I organized the meetups, workshops, and conferences. The point was practical skill-building as Node.js and modern web frameworks arrived, not a networking club with a speaker at the front.
The community became a place people used to learn, hire, and get hired. Workshops stayed hands-on so the knowledge transferred.
