ORGANIZER IMPOSTER SYNDROME

ORGANIZER IMPOSTER SYNDROME But I'm not an expert at Vue.js! That's okay! The point of the meetup is to provide a safe space for people to come learn and ask questions. You don't need to feel pressure to know it all.

You don't need to feel pressure to know it all. What about getting speakers for the meetups? One option is to be prepared to talk yourself. Or if public speaking isn't your thing, there are other options like group study sessions, hack nights, etc.
