Join us on Wednesday, December 15th for a meetup in beautiful (albeit damp) Portland OR. Among other things, we will be celebrating what is forecasted to be the day of the 500,000th user signup on GitHub! We love each and every one of you as if you were a beautiful snowflake and would love to show it.

There's a decently sized contingent of Hubbers living in Portland these days, and we heard a certain convention was happening. Join us Thursday night for a great time at Dig a Pony, just down the street from the convention center.

Jonathan "Duke" Leto will talk about The Rise of Social Coding. Where it's been, where it is now and where we are going.

speaker: Jonathan "Duke" Leto

So, there's this dude named Travis who lives in a cloud and has nothing better to do on a Thursday night than download your latest commit, run your tests, and ridicule you on the twitternets when you broke the build... or something like that. But even if you don't need your pocket to jiggle on the way to fried pies, you should have some sort of automated continuous integration setup testing your code to keep you and your commits working smoothly. Jonathan will talk about Travis CI, demonstrate setting-up Travis for a public github project, and cover some of Jitterbug.

As usual, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the Lucky Lab Brew Pub.

We all know that staying on top of recent web trends, tools, and best practices isn't easy. The Modern Web Dev workshop will explore a number of resources that will, at the very least, help you launch a simple, elegant website by the end of the day. If that's all you want—fantastic! If, however, you're interested in front-end development, whether you're just getting into the field or simply haven't had the time to keep up with the latest and greatest, you'll leave with a good understanding of a few different ways to build sites quickly, efficiently, and intelligently. We'll discuss Bootstrap, SCSS, Jekyll, Github, and even touch on responsive design and jQuery. Everything we'll cover is free/open source, smart, forward-thinking, and made by developers for themselves and their peers—built as solutions to specific problems.

Visit modernwebworkshop.com for all the details about the workshop and registration info.

Come join your fellow geo nerds for some map hacking, geographic learning, beer drinking, and conversation having! MaptimePDX is a brand new, map-focused hack and learn event, modeled after the hugely successful weekly San Francisco meetup, MaptimeSF.

At our first hack day, we will be working through an exercise to edit and contribute to collaborative geographic datasets using GitHub and geojson.io. There will also be a table for folks to come and hack on and talk about their own projects with others!

This inaugural MaptimePDX event is being held in conjunction with WhereCampPDX 6, an unconference for all things geospatial.

Beginners especially welcome! Bring a laptop if you can. See you there!

@afeld, @rothsa, @azizshamim, @asenchi, @technicalpickles, @chrishunt, @gorsuch (and more) ...a lively bunch of Hubbers are in town and we're ready to drink :tea: like the :fish::fish::fish::fish:

Come say hello – :tea: is on us! That's 100+ loose leaf teas, 10+ chai lattes, bubble tea, kombucha (Townshend's Kombucha is our local Portland brand)... lots of stuff you haven't tried before. If you don't like tea, come for the atmosphere. :cloud:

Patchwork is a hands-on workshop for beginners wanting to learn Git and GitHub hosted by GitHub. The exercises are self-directed and mentors are available to help you along the way—no coding experience required. https://ti.to/github-events/patchwork-portland-2016

Andrew Bray will discuss Collaborative coding with GitHub and RStudio server. He's in the faculty at Reed College here in Portland.

Doors open ~6 pm, talk starts at 6:30 pm

We'll visit a local watering hole afterwards.

There are many digital tools out there to help you tackle your projects and "get 'er done"—from full-blown project management platforms to communication and file-sharing tools. Get an idea of the digital project management tools out there with advice and opinions from the pros.

Abstract: Developer tools that support multiple languages generally have very limited regex-based code-analysis capabilities. Tree-sitter is a new parsing system that aims to change this paradigm. We’re in the process of integrating Tree-sitter into both GitHub.com and Atom, which will allow us to analyze code accurately and in real-time, paving the way for better syntax highlighting, code navigation, and refactoring support. We’ll demo some new features that Tree-sitter has enabled in GitHub.com and Atom, discuss its implementation, and share thoughts on ways it could be used in the future.

Bio: Max Brunsfeld is an engineer on GitHub’s Atom team. Prior to joining GitHub, he worked at Pivotal Labs as a full-stack engineer. He enjoys programming, especially in C and C++, jazz guitar, bicycling and hiking. He lives in Portland with his wife and two toddlers.

AWS customers continue to struggle demonstrating alignment with security, compliance and audit requirements, such as the PCI-DSS. Additionally, many compliance requirements necessitate administrative and operational security controls that lack technical validation.

This workshop is designed to instruct AWS cloud engineers, DevOps team members, security practitioners, and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSP) how to secure and manage regulated customer workloads in AWS. This class will focus on the security of an AWS customer account design (e.g. AWS CIS Foundation Benchmark), security architecture (e.g. AWS CIS 3-Tier Web Benchmark) and security automation leading practices. This workshop is an intermediate to advanced workshop with an emphasis on designing security automation for regulated workloads in AWS (e.g. PCI, DoD, CJIS, HIPAA, DFARs (800-171), FERPA and others).

The result will enable cloud engineers and security practitioners to design, architect and implement automation in an AWS customer account to automatically enforce compliance requirements. It will also enable attendees to document their security governance/audit readiness through integration of AWS Security Partners from our AWS Marketplace and Security Competency Partners and Solutions.

What will I learn in this class?

How to design automation in AWS to enforce security controls and compliance requirements Automate audit findings to accelerate the compliance process Use AWS Partners and Marketplace tools to create more secure and reliable environments Course Objectives:

Establish secure foundational account design and/or remediation of existing customer accounts Configure and manage AWS Security Services with a focus on automation Implement and design security automation services through AWS services and partner solutions Manage, secure and audit the use of AWS services using real-time risk management processes Leverage shared compliance across multiple security frameworks (e.g. PCI, DoD, CJIS, etc.) Learn about and leverage key security partners from the AWS Partner Network (APN) Learn about Container Security, Serverless Architecture, Advanced Encryption, and Auto-Healing in AWS

Git is well over a decade old and still reigns King and is a de Facto Standard for many good reasons. Join us for an Intro to Git workshop where you will learn the basics of this powerful version-control tool.

We will walk through setting up a project on GitHub and will be using the command line to step through and understand a series of commands typically seen in a common workflow "Feature Branch".

At the end of the night you should have a general understanding of Git as a tool and how to use it from the command line to maintain proper version control of your code.

https://www.freecodecamp.org/ is a great online resource for learning how to code. It gives you step by step challenges with example lessons to code. There are even hints and video tutorials if you get stuck.

The only missing component is how to share your achievements with friends and get inspired by others. That's where Knowledge Mavens can help. Join us to stay motivated to complete the boot camp. We're holding a two-hour workshop to work on challenges and share our progress.

If you haven't tried Free Code Camp. I can help you get started. Be sure to bring your laptop so we can code together.

Be inspired! Knowledge Mavens

Do you know how to push your code to Github, but wonder what else there is to Git? Do you hear about what a great development tool Git is and want to know why? In this presentation, we’ll look at how to use some important intermediate Git features like branches, as well as look at some widely used Github features like projects and pull requests. Presented by PDX Code Guild Instructor Merritt Lawrenson

Two months ago, we launched the first cohort of the Python Pirates Project. Four participants were chosen from a pool of applicants and tasked with building a web application that investors could use to track equities of their choosing.

The project’s goal was to expose teams to Agile methodology and simulate what it is like to work on a development team. In addition to learning valuable technical skills, participants also experienced pair programming and learned how to submit pull requests, participate in daily standups, and manage their time effectively to ensure their code’s timely delivery.

Join us as Matthias, Xuehong, Jessica, and Matt present their finished product. The presentation will include design choices, engineering challenges, and an overview of the code itself. The repo will be available for you to clone so that you can follow along as they introduce you to Pyrate Stocks!

We're back!! Join us for the first ProductTank in person since, well, you know. 🥹 We can't wait to see you again, with everything you remember from the old meetup and more! We're returning quarterly, so don't miss the best Portland product event in years. No cap.*

Please join us for two 20-minute talks, each followed by 10 minutes of Q&A. We'll have plenty of time at the start and end of the meetup for tasty food, beverages, and networking.

Speaker: Julian Dunn, Senior Director of Product Management, GitHub
