About
Hello from the valley.
We're a group of technologists, developers, and designers who live and work in the Arkansas River Valley of Colorado. Some of us write software for a living, some run the systems that keep local businesses humming, and some just like taking things apart. All of us are dedicated to helping our community grow and thrive through technology.
What we do
- Keep a porch light on. The Slack is the town square — introductions, questions, job leads, and a steady stream of valley life.
- Trade knowledge. Write-ups on the blog, answers in channel, and honest opinions about whatever the framework of the week is.
- Build useful things. Small community projects — like this site and its duck-race ticket validator — that make the valley a little more wired.
Who's welcome
Everyone. Professional engineers and weekend hobbyists, remote workers and shop owners, students, founders, ham radio folks, and the generally tech-curious. There's no membership fee, no minimum commit count, and no such thing as a dumb question.
Most of the action happens on Slack; in-person hangs come together whenever schedules (and mountain weather) allow.
Get an inviteWhere we are
Spread along the Upper Arkansas River and its side canyons — the Chaffee County area and beyond. If you're nearby (or headed this way), you're in the right place.
Meet the members
A proper member directory is coming soon. Until then, the best way to meet everyone is to hop into Slack and say hi.
