Webs&Beers #10
2019-12-04 18:30 (Europe/London) | The White Lion, 91 Sopwell Lane,, Saint Albans, AL1 1RN
Welcome to Webs&Beers!
Webs&Beers is a monthly meetup made for all the people that need a place to chat about websites and anything related to them.
Sometimes we just need someone to share our experiences, talk with someone that understand our problems or just to be able to relax and spend some time disconnected from the screens. If you ever feel like that, this could be your meetup.
We welcome everyone, no matter your level or how you use your website, or even if you do not have one. Join us and share what you know, or just listen, that is fine too. 🙂
We try to make a relaxed event where everyone can feel welcomed and part of the group since day one.
I hope you can join us on our next event.
