With life getting closer and closer to normal, User Groups are making a comeback. Running a PHP Usergroup can be very rewarding at times and feel thankless at other times. There is a lot of benefit to becoming a Usergroup Organizer, like deciding what the group talks about at meetups. At this Roundtable, we talk with several PHP Usergroup organizers and discuss the pros and cons of running a PHP User Group and what some helpful tips and tricks are.
