RubySG Meetup 2020 Plan

[TayKangSheng]

I spoke to Ted about me stepping up to organize meetups for 2020; and I found out about this repository so I would like to use this repository for planning of our meetups.

This issue will be open for the year and many of the plans below are WIP. Since I don't have any experience organizing meetups, I am expecting to realize that there are a lot that I don't know about. Any comments are welcome so please help me along.

General direction

Rebooting RubySG meetup leading up to RDRC2020 to get the Ruby community ready for our conference! Once a month meetup starting from February, alternating between "presentation/code-along" session and "social & code" session.

session type	description
Presentation	Short and relatable talks. Max 15 minutes.
Code along	Short session about building something using TDD. Max 30 minutes.
Social & Code	people just come together to do their work. Can join someone who is working on something to do pair programming.

Focus

1. Beginner - Intermediate level content.
2. Consistency.
3. Shorter sessions but definitely can bring something back with them.
4. Good food!!!
