A little bit about me...

STEP #1:

CHoose a name

Luckily, it's not that hard

Vue{{ yourCity }}
VueJS{{ yourCity }}

STEP #2:

GRAB ALL THE

BRANDING THINGS

two major ones to get

  • Twitter
  • Meetup || nvite

nice to haves

  • Domain name
  • Google || YouTube
  • Instagram

STEP #3:

GETTING A VENUE & SETTING A DATE

places to consider

  • Your office space
  • Community centers
  • Co-working spaces
  • Ask around to see if members want to host

STEP #4:

meetup logistics

top things to keep in mind

  • Is your location easily accessible?
  • Can someone sponsor food or snacks?
  • What do attendees need for the Meetup?

STEP #5:

spread the word!

organizer imposter syndrome

How much food should I be ordering?

Expect roughly 30-40% of RSVP total

What about getting speakers for the meetups?

One option is to be prepared to talk yourself. Or if public speaking isn't your thing, there are other options like group study sessions, hack nights, etc.

But I'm not an expert at Vue.js!

That's okay! The point of the meetup is to provide a safe space for people to come learn and ask questions. You don't need to feel pressure to know it all.
