This is a companion website to the Sacramento Software Engineers Meetup.

About

Sacramento Software Engineers (SacSwe) is a Meetup for those interested in the art and practice of software development. We aim to learn, network, collaborate, and grow, both individually and as a community. We have two ongoing monthly series:

• Third Tuesdays at the Carlsen Center (currently paused)
  • Talks for a broad tech and business audience, focused mainly on AI.
• First Thursdays at Bloom Workspaces (joint with Coder Consortium)
  • Varied formats including hands-on activities and deeper dives focused on coding.
