​NJTC Meetup #4: Meet for SPEED

​​This month NJTC is hosting a guest Meet for SPEED session led by Paul Calvano (Etsy) and Sergey Chernyshev (Cloudflare), co-organizers of the New York UX Speed and Web Performance Group. Together they bring over 30 years of experience in Web Performance to teach us how to speed up our sites, so bring your laptops and your slow websites!

​​What to expect:

• ​​Intro circle where we'll share names, what we're working on, and life beyond code

• ​​Live optimizations of 1 to 2 sites submitted by guests.

• ​​Find optimization opportunities using WebPageTest and Chrome Devtools

• ​​Learn how to read the network waterfall

• ​​Discover the latest trends in measuring site speed

​​The vibe: Super casual. We're here to learn from each other and build community.

​​What to bring: Yourself! And optionally, your laptop and your slow websites!

​Looking forward to seeing familiar faces and meeting new ones. Let's keep growing this thing together!
