PDX Dev Week is a community-driven meta event that showcases the best events, activities and spaces for developers in Portland, OR. It is modeled after last year's Vancouver Dev Week. The CascadiaJS conference is coming to Portland on 7/31 and 8/1, so PDX Dev Week will run roughly from July 28th to August 3rd.
The purpose of a Dev Week is two-fold:
- To better connect developers from different communities (JS, Python, Gaming, etc) to one another.
- To showcase the caliber of the Portland developer community to visitors during the week.
Portland Dev Week can't happen without an amazing array of events for developers to check-out. If you are an event organizer, here are some simple steps for getting your event listed:
- First, check to see what other events are scheduled. Ideally we work together to space out events over the course of the week.
- Create a GitHub account if you don't have one already.
- Go to our issues page
- Create a 'New Issue', with the title of the issue being the name of your event. Include the following info:
- Date(s)
- Start Time
- End Time (optional)
- Location
- Link to logo image (100 x 100 pixels)
- Link to webpage
- Brief description (1-3 sentences)
- Send an email to pdx@devweek.org with a link to the issue you've created. This way we'll have your email address if we need to contact you.
We need your help in letting developers in and around Portland know about the Dev Week. Here are some bits that help explain what PDX Dev Week is and how people can learn more.
