  3. Recommended libraries, helpers, etc.

    Coder Night - coding practice!

    80 miles away in Tampa

    This is a TENTATIVE date, time and location for the next coding night practice group. Along with the main meetup I'd like to alternate these between St. Pete and Tampa. We'll see this week how Peak 10 works out as a meeting location. I'm considering moving the practice nights to a different day-of-week in case some people cannot make it on Thursdays. If this is a major challenge for people we can move back to Thursday nights.
