Instant Gratification: Launch Your Next Project Fast With Node.js For Hackathons
You have a great idea for a side project or even a Software as a Service (SaaS) business. The best way to make sure it will work is to put it out there for people to use, but how do you get started? We will walk through how to create a new application from scratch with Node.js for Hackathons. This is also a chance to see how cloud development works and what “Full Stack Developer” really means without having to get bogged down in details.
Speaker: Bill Glover
