Meetup Groups You Must Join If You Are Tech Beginner
If you are a newbie to code, then instead of sitting on your chair like…forever, you need to take your “learn-to-code” journey of�ine and join meetup groups.
These groups are so ideal for tech beginner because you can get career advice, coding help, general support from the best programmer around, and as a result,
you can expand your circle and push your career to the next level.
There’s a ton of groups to join, but I’ve summed up the best communities for you.

For those who haven’t known about Meteor yet, imagine you just come home after an exhausted day at work. There are 2 options for you to choose: The �rst
one is you have to cook dinner cause you are super starving. The other one is that there is a table covered with full of foods that have been done already, then
you just need to sit down and satisfy your stomach. Which choice will you make? Of course it’s the second one, right? In the term of programming, Meteor
(https://www.meteor.com/) is exactly that “full-of-foods” table.
Meteor is a smart and powerful tool that allows you to build web and mobile applications. Meteor requires less code, so even though you are a newbie to
programming, you are able to build your own amazing app in a very short time.
