We had a great time last week at the EdinburghJS Personal Websites Code Jam. It was fun hanging out with so many people, sharing knowledge and working on code together. It’s a format that I think we will repeat later in the year. A few people posted their reflections or mentioned the evening on their own sites: Andrew, James (on “kind” software), Colin, and Pete. If you’ve posted about the event (or any other Scottish tech event) then let me know and I’ll drop the link into a bulletin!

Lots on this week including Greentech Scotland, Geomob, Techtalks and Edinburgh Data Science and AI.
