    Austin JavaScript Meetup

    Cloudflare, 405 Comal St, Austin, TX, US

    ✅ RSVP ON LUMA

    Come and give a talk! We'd also love to have you come give a lightning presentation or present a battle deck!

    Talk: Don’t Be That DEV
    Speaker: John Van Lowe
    Abstract: Developers are a prime target for increasingly clever scams. In this session, we’ll walk through real attack scenarios like malware-laced coding challenges, deepfake interviewers, poisoned pull requests, and phishing attacks that impersonate your own company—plus practical ways to avoid getting burned.

    Talk: Building Typesafe Databases with Effect
    Speaker: David Bowman
    Abstract: Effect Schema as your single source of truth gives you richer types than any ORM, and hand-written migrations as composable Effects give you full control. Contract tests prove your schema and database agree, while migration tests make evolution safe.

    6:00 - 7:00 -> Food and networking
    7:00 - 8:00 -> Main presentations and Q&A
