New to LA? Home to sunny blue skies, luscious palm trees and all-around great weather. Yeah, we love it too. We believe that with its diverse economy and incredible talent, Los Angeles is set to be the next great tech center of the world. #LongLA some might say.

You might be wondering where the designers, engineers and product folks hang out? If there’s an online community where you can start to network, get the lay of the land, and maybe even start your job hunt?

Well, you’ve found the spot. πŸ“

LA Design & Dev is a Slack community of over 3,000+ people offering networking, job postings and topical discussion. During non-COVID times, we host quarterly meetups around the city.
