A community of coders for Canton, anywhere, and the rest of the world. We've never charged for anything. RSVP at our Eventbrite — it's free. Join our Slack and Discord — it's free, like always.
Our community is focused on the individual coder and not our employers. Our goal is to provide community and professional development for all software developers regardless of methodology, language, or paradigm — and we've always been FREE!
In January 2020, Canton Coders was started by a few developers in the Canton, Michigan area. The pivot to virtual removed the barriers of geography and promoted a stronger network. We continue to grow and welcome coders from everywhere.
What we're focused on right now.
AI is transforming how software gets built. We're diving deep into AI-assisted coding, prompt engineering, and how developers can use AI tools to ship better software, faster. Whether you're experimenting with copilots, building with LLMs, or just curious — come learn with us.
Virtual has been great — it's how we grew from a local Canton group to a global community. But nothing beats showing up, shaking hands, and talking code face to face. Find a local meetup near you, or better yet, come to one of ours. The best connections happen when you're in the same room.
We're all about the individual developer, not our employers.
The community is about the individual coder. The views and opinions expressed are our own and do not reflect those of our employers.
Be kinder than required and expected. That's it. That's the rule.
There's so much to talk about, so don't talk about inflammatory things like religion, politics, or tabs vs spaces.
The Law of Two Feet applies, always. If you're not learning or contributing, use your two feet and find somewhere you can.
To protect the integrity of Canton Coders and maintain professional decorum, please refrain from sharing any employer or client information.
It started as a local meetup, but since then has gone global. Always 100% free. Always 100% about you.
From meetups to hackathons, we offer a variety of ways to learn, grow, and connect with fellow developers.
Regular gatherings where we share knowledge, demo projects, and network with fellow developers in Canton.
Hands-on workshops covering everything from web development fundamentals to advanced frameworks and tools.
Collaborative coding events where teams build innovative projects and solve real-world problems together.
Presentations from community members and guest speakers on the latest technologies and industry trends.
Small group sessions focused on specific topics, languages, or certifications to deepen your expertise.
Contribute to open source projects together and make an impact on the broader developer community.
