ClojureBridge London

Location

Locale: London, UK

Venue: SkillsMatter, London

Description

ClojureBridge is a free, beginner-friendly workshop teaching the Clojure programming language, primarily aimed at those who identify as women, transgender & non-binary.

You’ll learn fundamental programming concepts in Clojure through practical examples and exercises. Teachers and assistants are there to guide you and help you build your first apps in Clojure.

The workshop is open to people who are completely new to programming, through to existing developers new to Clojure. We organise attendees into small groups with at least one teacher and one assistant.

Priority is given to those who identify as women, trans-gender or non-binary gender. Males may register as a guest of one of these participants.

Additional Info

Event Schedule

Friday 17th November, 6.30pm - 9pm: we ensure you have a working development environment and give a general introduction to what you can do with Clojure.
Saturday 18th November, 10.30am - 5pm: we’ll work through the Clojure concepts and carry out coding exercises in small groups.

Its essential to attend the Friday evening session if you wish to attend the workshop the next day. This prevents delays for other attendees during the workshop.

@sassela , @yolinas, and @jr0cket - Hi, I'm Chris. My email is crkoehnen@gmail.com. Let's set up some time to meet. I'm going to send out a doodle.

crkoehnen commented 7 years ago

@sassela , you helped organized a ClojureBridge last year?

crkoehnen commented 7 years ago

@sassela, I'm Chris. Until last Sunday, I was the chapter leader for ClojureBridge Minnesota. We're planning our seventh workshop. ClojureBridge is trying to set up mentors with people holding events.

I'm thinking this isn't actually your first event but I would really enjoy meeting, hearing what you have planning, and maybe compare notes.

Hi Chris @crkoehnen, thanks for getting in touch. This isn't the first event we've organised but always happy to hear from other chapters and compare notes - I'm sure we can share ideas for the upcoming workshop! It looks like we're 6 hours ahead in the UK so would a hangout your lunchtime / my evening work for you? If so, I've added my availability here and will email the link to @jr0cket and @yolinas in case they can join too https://doodle.com/poll/u6wkhuhmb6aq8t88

Signal Media doesn't have a logo to put on the website? If not, that's ok. But, the logo is nice to have.
