June Meetup - Tighten up your workflow. Front-end asset management for any web project
At this month’s meetup, Andy Graham (@4nd) will take us through the features of Laravel Elixir, and we'll see why its not just for Laravel and how it can help streamline your workflow on almost any project.
Lightning Talks --------------------
David Frame (@DaGrFr) talks about the importance of, and methods to achieve, backwards compatibility in PHP projects.
Darren Craig (@MinusDarren) has been doing some Laravel/Wordpress integration and will give us a rundown on his findings.
More To be confirmed...
NOTE --------
PHPBelfast this month will be in a different room than previously, so if you walk past the previous room, take first right, its on your left. We'll signpost as best we can.
Open Floor --------------
Come prepared with your own 5-15min talk and have your say on any topic related to web development. maybe you discovered a new library on Packagist you think we should all know about. Maybe you want to have your 2 cents worth on the 11 lines of code that brought down NPM - whatever it is, if you have the slides, you can have the floor.
To keep transitions between speakers simple, please bring your presentation on a USB stick in either PDF, Keynote, HTML or, if you really must, Powerpoint and a laptop will be available on the night.
Networking Opportunities ------------------------------------- As usual there will be opportunity to catchup and discuss any and all things after the talks are finished, The Duke of York is the usual venue for that.
ADDITIONAL ------------------ Don't forget you can watch previous talk on our YouTube channel. Can't get enough of this? Catch up with other local developers on the N.I. Tech & Design Slack. Follow @PHPBelfast on twitter.

Community
The session will open with a talk by Tim from Ardmore, with a talk on getting involved with and contributing to the open source community.

Daycamp4Developers - Modern PHP
The next Day Camp 4 Developers is coming up on April 22, 2016. This time around, the topic is Modern PHP. Remember when all you had to to do is shoehorn some PHP into your HTML page, rename it .php and you had a dynamic web page? Those days are long gone. These days PHP is a sophisticated language and is the basis for many of the largest websites. These days PHP developers can create advanced applications on top of PHP. Applications that run fast and are horizontally scalable. If you still think that PHP global and mysql_real_escape_string, you need to take another look. Join in with Day Camp 4 Developers: Modern PHP. Invest a day in your career. http://daycamp4developers.com

February Meetup (2016)
What's New in PHP 7
Lightning Session by one of Minus40's digital problem solvers, Paul McBride.
Paul will give us a brief run-through of PHP 7's new features, deprecated things to watch out for and of course tell us all why we need to make the move to PHP 7 (hint the answer may have something to do with Sandra Bullock, Keanu Reeves and a runaway bus)
Dependency Injection / Service Containers for beginners
David Frame of 31interactive will be giving a short talk on Dependency Injection: what it is, its benefits, when to make use of it and how additional concepts such service containers can aid your development!
REGISTER NOW
http://www.meetup.com/phpbelfast/events/228223914/

Open Discussion
If you've ever fancied giving a talk, then this is your opportunity. Why not start your speaking career with a 15min lightning session. Here's a list of suggested topics for discussion or lightning talks, come prepared with one of these or one of your own and we'll try to squeeze you in.

Announcing the October Meetup
Three Talk Thursday
Talk 1 - ZeroMQ
Message queues are great for offloading the work that doesn't need to be carried out by your application right away. This enables you to respond to your users faster and protect your server from excessive load. In this talk, Roger Simms will demonstrate one such message queue system called ZeroMQ or ØMQ
You may not realise it, but most apps could take advantage of implementing a queue somewhere, whether it's for sending susbcriber alerts, image resizing or video format conversion & processing, we all do something that can be handed off to a background process.
Talk 2 - PHP, By The Book
Like most tech, the world of PHP has moved pretty fast. In this short talk we take a look back at the textbooks that helped launch some of our early careers, how some of that advice still holds true but so much of it is really bad advice.
Although tongue in cheek, this talk by Ryan Kilfedder senior developer at Learning Pool, highlights the dangers of ease of access to out-of-date information for the new developer.
Talk 3 - Symfony Demonstration
Symfony is quite possibly the granddaddy of the PHP frameworks, it's components are tucked under the hood of so many other systems, applications, frameworks and micro-frameworks; and although version 3 is still not out, it's 10years old this year.
Symfony sets also the standards in terms of PHP development practices. In this talk, Stephen McAuley from BRS Golf will give a run through of the Official Symfony bests practice derived demo app and show you just how easy it is to get up and running with a full stack framework.

Surprise Draw
The next meetup, Sept. 24th will feature a prize draw sponsored by Corvus Recruitment. The draw is open to all who attend on the night and the prize is a “fruit” related piece of technology - one that is quite suited to developers. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank Corvus for their involvement and support for the local PHP community.

Social Event
Since we’re temporarily homeless so to speak, our August Meetup is a social gathering.
We’ll be joined by WordPress (with a capital P dang it!) and PHP Community Leader / Speaker / Motivator and much more, Miss Jenny Wong (@miss_jwo). Jenny has come over to run a WordPress Surgery with the folks at WordPress NI. Jenny is also a former organiser of the PHPNWConf in Manchester, which is coming up soon by the way - so if you want to know more about that too, then this is the perfect opportunity to find out all you ever wanted to know about conferences.
This is your chance to hang out, talk shop, swap ideas, meet with a self-confessed Community-Junkie Half-Human developer, find out what the PHP Dev world is like over the water, and generally just have a good night out.
Social events are a great way to get solutions to that problem that’s been bugging you.. and equally a great platform to brag about that awesome thing you recently did to people who actually understand and are interested in it.
Venue: The Bar With No Name (formerly Auntie Annies) on the Dublin Road Time: Thurs 13th Aug 7:00 Tickets: Not required, it’s just a pub gathering, but if you want to, you can register at http://www.meetup.com/phpbelfast/events/224140367/
