SUMMARY:Norfolk.js: 670k People Watched Us Vibe Code
DESCRIPTION:Imagine being flown across the country to build a full-stack app from scratch in under four hours\, where you have to demo what you made in front of a dev influencer\, corporate recruiter\, and competing engineering teams regardless of if it’s finished or a broken mess.\nNow imagine that it’s all being filmed by a full production crew\, having to juggle team interviews and makeup touchups between code commits and debugging attempts\, all to make a video that’s been viewed over 670\,000 times! Terrifying right?\nRyan McGovern and Austin Galyon did exactly that while competing in a CodeTV Web Dev Challenge sponsored by Intuit\, where they built Pantry Party – a collaborative generative recipe app built using Astro\, Convex\, Clerk\, Netlify\, and the Claude API\, most of which they had never seen or used before that morning. They’ll share what the experience was actually like behind the scenes\, where AI-assisted coding helped\, where it completely failed\, and how their tooling has evolved since.\nAll skill levels welcome! The 757Dev Community means a lot to me\, and I thank each of you for your support. 🖖\nAs always\, HUGE thanks to Assembly for hosting.
Learn more about the amenities and community of Assembly at https://www.assemblynfk.com/\nStreet parking is free after 6 pm. From 6:30-7:00 pm\, we will have someone at the door to let you in. After 7\, message the #javascript channel on 757Dev Slack. We meet in the Fur Room on the 4th floor.

SUMMARY:The Network: Direct Employer Access (Norfolk)
DESCRIPTION:Stop applying online. Start shaking hands. Bypass the resume “black hole.” Meet vetted hiring managers who know what your clearance is worth\nThe Algorithm Can’t Hire You. We Can.\nThe Problem: You spend hours tailoring your resume. You submit it to an online portal. You wait. You hear nothing. The “Black Hole” of online applications is the enemy of a fast transition.\nThe Solution: The Network is your bypass. We cut the red tape and put you in the room with the people who actually sign the offer letters.\nThis isn’t a “job fair” where you collect brochures. This is a tactical access point to the 757’s most aggressive military-hiring companies. We have vetted every employer in the room. They aren’t here to tell you to “apply on the website”—they are here to find their next team leader.\nWho Should Attend:\nTransitioning Service Members: Who are tired of the waiting game.\nMilitary Spouses: Looking for employers who understand the PCS lifestyle.\nVeterans: Ready to level up from their current civilian role.\nYour Rules of Engagement:\nBring Resumes if you have them BUT no biggie if you don’t.\nBe Social: No stress\, take your 30 seconds to tell them who you are. Make it count. Learn who they are and what they’re looking for. If it’s not you\, how you can help.\nThe job market is all about who you know. Come know the right people.\nIf you have any additional questions\, please do not hesitate to contact us:\nPhone: 757-807-0423\nEmail: militarycommunity@theworkforcecouncil.org\nThis event and the services provided herein at the Hampton Roads Veterans Employment Centers are funded through 25% or $199\,576 through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act and 75% or $580\,391 through nonfederal sources.
