👥 Creating a new Meetup

To create a new meetup based on the official meetup contained on https://meetup.com/leicesterjs, first create a dated markdown file in /src/meetups The format of the date should be in ISO_8601 which looks like this yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss. Note: you will need to account for whether or not the meetup is taking place during BST and alter the date format to be in UTC without the timezone offset e.g. 2019-08-15 19:00:00+01:00 would become 2019-08-15 18:00:00.

Inside this file create a template similar to the below

Exploring JAMStack

Talk Title: Exploring the JAM Stack Ecosystem

Talk Time (rough estimate): 20mins

Twitter URL:
https://twitter.com/pmuston

Description:
The JAMStack is a radical new approach to building sites and web apps. It exposed me to a whole ecosystem that previously I had been unaware. In this talk I will explore the typical reasons that people use the JamStack - better performance; higher security; and cheaper, easier scaling. Beyond that, I found when diving deeper was better developer experience - an attempt for radically consistency and best of all a massive reduction in backend work.
I came came across JAMStack when recently rebuilding web sites for a series of best selling technical books and then switched implementations to use the JAMStack. Even if you've heard of the JAMStack before, don't think static sites, my use of realtime web components facilitating interactive workshops for one of the books may surprise you.
