Red Hat was recently at NodeConf EU, which was held on November 6-8th 2023. This is one of the key Node.js events in Europe and always puts on a great show. As was the case in recent years it was held in-person at the Lyrath Estate in Kilkenny, Ireland. Over the 3 days, there was a mix of talks in the morning and workshops in the afternoon. If possible, this year there was even more content related to development and work within the Node.js project than in past years, balanced by talks covering the use of Node.js to deliver value.
NodeConf.eu 2023 is almost here. It’s one of our favorite Node.js conferences and is always a great time to learn about what’s new on the Node.js front as well as to get together with those who build and use Node.js.
Many apps require more computational resources than a single thread or process can handle. Learn how to meet this need in your Node.js applications.
We are just back from OpenJS World Europe which was held last week. The second OpenJS World this year was part of Open Source Summit Europe. That meant a wide opportunity to network and learn about other technologies while still being a good opportunity to catch up with our fellow JavaScript and Node.js contributors.
OpenJS World Europe is almost upon us. This event brings together both the JavaScript and Web communities, which include not only Node.js, but other OpenJS Foundation projects such as Electron, webpack, and more. This year there is a second instance of OpenJS World in Europe which is part of Open Source Summit Europe. This offers a second opportunity for sharing and learning with a broader audience, something that we are looking forward to. We are proud that Red Hat is a sponsor of the Open Source Summit supporting this collaboration.
