From around the world, voices sounded out in a multitude of languages: is React Translated Yet? With the efforts of hundreds of contributors, I can finally say: ¡Sí! Sim! はい 

Over the course of a month, I helped the React team kick off translations of reactjs.org into 40 languages. Join me for a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to get the docs for a massively popular library translated. 

We'll talk about GitHub rate limits, managing a global community, amateur bot-building and more!

For millennia, mathematicians and artists have been fascinated by polyhedra, 3D shapes that encode complex symmetries and relationships. 

My name is Nat Alison, and for the last ten years I have dedicated my life to sharing the beauty of these shapes with the world. Join me on an epic quest filled with ancient 3D libraries, arcane mathematical data structures, and Pokémon GIFs as I strive to make my vision a reality the only way I know how: an interactive web app. 

Come and twist, expand, and gyroelongate polyhedra with me, and let my journey inspire you to use the web to make your own passions come to life.
