After attending the Orlando iOS Developer Group’s Meetup last week, I’m considering starting something similar for the Space Coast. I have no idea how many other Apple developers there are in this area, but I’d like to find out and see if we can get a community going.
I’m thinking of naming the group Space Coast iDevelopers
For interests (limit 15), I have
- Mac
- iPhone
- Apple
- Objective-C
- iPad
- iOS
- iMac
- MacBook
- Xcode
- Swift Language
- tvOS
- watchOS
- Server Side Swift
- macOS
For a description, I was going to use:
Interested in building apps for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, or Apple Watch? Interested in Swift, Objective-C, and Xcode? From newbies to experts, all skill levels are welcome.
The one thing I need to figure out to really take a crack at this is where to hold the meetings. I also need to line up sponsorships, but I’m fine buying pizza and soda for the first few meetings until it takes off.
The Suntree-Viera Public Library has a 10-15 person conference room I could probably use to get the group started, but I just realized I should also have a 1080p projector. That’ll run about $50-100, but I can list it as a business expense, so it might be worth it. I could get a 32″ HD TV instead for a little more and schlep that around instead: might actually be a better option.
