Philly Homebrew Website Club 10 Recap

Also posted on IndieNews

Homebrew Website Club - Philadelphia, 10th edition was a hoot! Many thanks to everyone who came out - we had a few new faces and it’s always a pleasure to see our regulars! Big shout out to PHL Code Club, I’m so glad Graham came out to one of the first Philly HWC events and introduced me to his community, they’re all great people and they run really fun events!

And thanks as always to Iffy Books for hosting!
