Sat, April 25, 2020 Online Conference
WomenOfReact
<p>Women of React is an online conference where women take the (virtual) stage, but everyone is welcome to attend and participate! Watch the stream live, ask your questions on our moderated Discord, forge new and meaningful connections, learn a little, laugh a little. Put together by and for women working with React, this event is small, from the heart, and very much a labor of love meant to bring people together.</p>
