Welcome to the Seattle Users' Group!
This is a geographic Drupal User Group meant primarily for planning local Drupal related events and meetups, and supporting users locally.
SeaDUG meets regularly (at least once a month officially) to talk about Drupal, to plan Drupal events, and to socialize. During SeaDUG meetings we showcase modules and projects, share tips and tricks, and answer nagging questions about Drupal.
There is also an online front-end meeting that takes place on the first Tuesday of the month at noon Pacific Time. It's not always posted here, but information about it can be found in the front-enders channel in the SeaDUG Slack workspace.
PLEASE do not post job offers in this group unless they are local to Seattle. Any job posted to this group that is not in the Seattle/Puget Sound Metropolitan Area will be promptly removed.

SeaDUG Online Front-End Meeting (January 26, 2021)
At today’s front-end meeting, Christopher Stewart and I will present an introduction to Eleventy, a simple, but powerful, static site generator that works with a wide variety of popular template languages. It also supports populating pages from different data sources, which could include a Drupal-driven backend. We’ll demonstrate Eleventy’s powerful features and show how it can be integrated with Tailwind CSS and a Storybook-enabled, component-based development approach to produce a blazingly fast static website that can easily be deployed to any platform.
