The Northwest C++ Users' Group (NWCPP) is a group of professional developers and hobbyists living and working in the Pacific Northwest who meet monthly to discuss trends, techniques, and technology regarding the C++ language and industry. The group meetings and resources are free, and anyone and everyone is welcome to attend.
We are interested in C++, C, the D language, concurrency, scalability, performance, Boost, software engineering, design patterns, debugging, compilers, functional programming, software architecture, machine architecture, DSLs, embedded software, test-driven development, cross-platform development, distributed programming, and more.
Meetings
Our meetings are held at the main Microsoft campus, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052, in Building 41/1511 (Townsend), at the corner of NE 31st and 156th Ave NE. Usually, we meet at 7pm on the third Wednesday of the month. You may need to knock on the window so that we can let you into the building.
Disclaimer: NWCPP is not associated with Microsoft—although we take advantage of their generosity in providing the venue and occasional speakers.
Past speakers at our meetings include Andrei Alexandrescu, Bruce Eckel, Steve McConnell, Scott Meyers, Alan Shalloway, Jeffrey Richter, Bobby Schmidt, Stan Lippman, Eric Niebler, Bartosz Milewski, and Herb Sutter.
