Join us to build "Find Your Next Read" React app!

🍕Cozy Coding & Pizza: “Find Your Next Read” Mob-Programming Meetup! 📚✨

What’s the vibe?

A friendly, hands-on session where we’ll team up to build a React + TypeScript app that taps into the Google Books API—perfect for anyone who loves books, code, and community.

Who should come?

• React/TS newcomers & API tinkerers
• Uni students & early-career devs looking to level up
• Anyone eager to learn, share ideas, and make new friends

Why you’ll love it:

• Collaborative fun: Rotate roles every 5-8 min—driver, navigators, cheerleaders!
• Real-world skills: Master search inputs, API calls, loading states, and UI components.
• Portfolio boost: Walk away with a polished GitHub repo to show off.

We'll build:

1. SearchBar for typing keywords
2. API layer to pull book covers, titles & authors
3. BookList & BookCard for a sleek results view

Quick agenda:

• Kickoff & setup (20 min): Grab coffee, meet the team, fire up your laptop
• Mob sprints (4×20 min): Code together, switch seats, high-five wins
• Question and social (20 min): Demo your work, share next steps

Bring:

• Laptop with Node.js installed
• Curiosity, questions & positive energy

Location: REA Group, Melbourne
