Cluj JavaScripters was born out of our desire to build one of the strongest tech communities in our country and to progress as a group. We quickly realized that sharing ideas and knowledge is the greatest tool we, as developers, have and that without collaboration between us, we have no chances of truly progressing on the long term.
Today we understand that the best way to bring people with all levels of knowledge together is by giving them what they need to advance. We organize meetings on the latest technologies as well as trainings on basics everyone should know before moving on.
We're passionate about what we do and we love sharing knowledge. Cluj JavaScripters was born out of common goals for some of us, and we take those very seriously. We made them our mission, our statement, our code by which we stand.
Everything we do is built around a couple of central ideas that we embrace wholeheartedly and that have become the very foundation on which we plan to grow this community.
Those ideas, in short, are:
- Build a stronger JavaScript community
- Help others by creating a safe environment focused on learning and sharing information
- Mentor people, provide trainings, create custom events
- Offer a model of collaboration between people from different domains or companies
- Put Cluj on the map as a JavaScript hub
- Build a community centered around people, not around companies

Cluj JavaScripters core team is formed of a couple of passionate members that aim to do fun stuff together and share as much as possible. We're all about collaborating with one another and we're constantly looking for more people to get involved in our community in some way or another.
Technical Lead at 3PillarGlobal
Vlad (close friends call him Reign :D) is a pragmatic frontend engineer and an avid caffeine consumer. He loves surrounding himself with ever smiling people and he's constantly pushing his limits in order to become a better professional. It's worth saying that his two full sleeve tattoos are not the direct consequence of him being present in the IT industry for more than 5 years now. He is currently employed as a as a Technical Lead and he's always striving to make the world a better place. In his spare time, he writes gibberish on his personal website.
JavaScript Ninja at Fortech
Coder, blogger and tech enthusiast in general, passionate about JavaScript and Functional Programming, Alex is always eager to talk about coding and software development in general. He’s a huge militant for clean code and teaching people core programming skills and paradigms. Currently he works as a full stack developer splitting his time between JavaScript and Ruby.
Software Developer at Catalysts
Tudor has had a passion for computers since he was little. Always eager to help others and share his knowledge. Used to love algorithms, nowadays his poisons are clean code, functional programming and Javascript. Thinks that the only way to move forward is to get out of your comfort zone. Likes to write code, write about code and teach others how to code. His work currently revolves around two (not so) similar languages - Javascript and Java.
JavaScript Consultant
Passionate about coffee, fitness, healthy eating, and writing clean code. Vlad started writing javascript before jQuery was cool and people were struggling IE6 bugs. He now spends his time helping teams build better javascript based apps and components, going to the gym, dancing salsa and bachata and searching for that unicorn startup idea that will change the world.
