I had a lot of success early on with a community of practice I started inside an engineering org but as time went on it morphed into a something different: A place to assign work outside an engineers day to day. I suppose thats a function of growth - people must always be working on something.

I started it with the intention of communicating architecture changes from consensus borne out of our weekly meeting. We got TypeScript into the codebase, React Query, talked about React Context and minimizing Redux. It was fun for a while. But then, was just another meeting where work was dolled out.
