Last night we put the pitchforks down and combined the powers of PyDataMCR, Manchester Gophers, Queer in Tech & Rust Manchester to come together this Hacktoberfest and dive into the world of open source
development.

Massive thanks to Fatsoma for sponsoring this event from venue to food!

Big thanks to @www.jvt.me for running the "What story does your dependency tree tell you about your org?"

Great tooling on how to manage dependencies and surface up actionable data using dmd!

You can catch this workshop at GopherconUK if you are attending!

The next Manchester Go meetup is on the 30th of July at Fatsoma! This one though is a workshop so bring your laptop and follow along with @www.jvt.me on "What story does your dependency tree tell you about your org?".

See you there and patch your vulnerabilities 👀

Thanks to Nandos for hosting the June meetup and of course our very own @lotus-engineer.com for the talk!

Nandos chicken was had and discussions on starting small and keep iterating while building a project and error handling proposals being paused as well as new faces to get to know!

Sorry folks, due to some logistical issues we are unable run the event tomorrow!

But don't fret my gopher friends, we will continue next month with Ryan's aWASMe (sorry) talk next month. So keep your eyes in ears out for details on that!

The May Go meetup is hosted by Nandos!

Our very own, the toy-maker gopher himself, @lotus-engineer.com with a talk titled "Go-Build-Play: Code Gen in the browser with Go and WASM"

Big thanks to Sam Burns for giving a talk on weak pointers on our April Go meetup!

We had a great time and good conversations afterwards around use cases for weak pointers.

Stay tuned for the next meetup in May!

For more info check our website in our bio.

The April meetup is a Go!

Our speaker Sam Burns will give a talk "The Strengths of the `weak` Package".

Stop what you're doing, even if you're collecting the garbage, defer that to later! Don't panic; get funcy and sign up!
We promise it won't be a weak one!
