CascadiaJS

November 8 – 9, 2012 / Seattle, WA

About Us

The world of JavaScript has moved beyond the browser.

Node.js has taken server-side application developers by storm and helped to blur the line between website and web application. Windows 8 is the first major operating system to make JS a first-class citizen when developing native applications. Mozilla is pushing the boundaries of mobile with Firefox OS, a mobile OS that is fully powered by the web.

CascadiaJS is bringing together these topics and more in order to survey where JS is today and where it is going tomorrow.

Hotels

We've run around Seattle and located some good hotel options for people coming in from out of town. We do not have special rates (sorry) but feel free to book your rooms ASAP before they fill-up. If any of you who are living in Seattle would be open to letting some friends from out of town crash on your couch (couchsurfing.js!) please let us know. We're happy to connect people.
