Tech Talks seek to inspire and educate students on topics that are emerging in the tech industry or are developer career-focused. We want them to complement a computer science education in a more informal forum like a pre-hackathon talk, within student groups, or other visiting campus speaking or meetups. Each contains a presentation as well as speaker notes and coding demos. They are generally designed to be about 1 hour with Q&A - feel free edit them down to fit desired length. New contributions are welcome.
