| 0:00.0 | Welcome to syntax today. We're going to be talking about the weird creative corners of the web. |
| 0:05.0 | There are a ton of these libraries, communities, projects out there that are some of the coolest stuff you will see using web-based code. |
| 0:14.0 | And we're going to be talking all about different libraries or different areas of cool things that you might be interested in. |
| 0:19.0 | So my name is Scott Tolensky. I'm a developer from |
