Dev Meetups

Expand for the "Who / What / Where / When / How" of Dev Meetups!

• Who? All are welcome! Current developers will be present, but anyone who is interested in contributing OR just wants to listen in may join.
• What? A technical meeting intended to bring together all the {riskassessment} developers who play a role in the project. Developers provide updates to their tasks & recent contributions, discuss various tips to improve the app, and support each other.
• When? Every other Tuesday at 11am EST. How do you know which Tuesday? Add the zoom meeting (below) to your calendar!
• Where? Zoom: https://arcusbio.zoom.us/j/91245862878
• How? Please avoid using this thread for discussion. If you'd like to discuss something in the minutes, open a separate issue and reference this thread. Each meeting will be a new comment in this thread and will be linked at the top of the page. We'll create a new issue every six months so this thread doesn't get too long.
