Bulletin 2025 Week 30

It’s the EdinburghJS JavaScript social this week! I’ll be hosting the event starting at 7pm on Tuesday 22nd at The Newsroom. All are welcome, from first-timers to regular attendees. After our social we’ll be taking a summer break, then we’ll be back at TravelPerk in September for more talks. Other events this week include: TravelTech, Rust and Friends, and Makers Gonna Make Dundee edition. I also started tracking ProductTank Glasgow, so you’ll see their events in the bulletins from now on.
For meetup organisers (or potential organisers!), Gavin messaged a reminder that Glasgow Tech Ecosystem Meetup Fund exists to help tech meetups within the city. It’s a great helping hand to get a meetup up and running, or support expanding the scope and reach of the meetup. If you want any advice about running a meetup then give me a shout. I have a small group of organisers in our Discord server that can help!
This week in content from Scotland-based folk:
- Chris vlogged about reverse-engineering the “World’s Smallest USB-C Li-Ion Charger”
