Rails Girls Dresden

Hello, World!

Rails Girls kommt nach Dresden.
Lerne in drei Tagen die Grundlagen des Programmierens mit Ruby on Rails in einer der schönsten Städte Deutschlands.

Vom 08.11.2013 bis zum 10.11.2013 haben wir ein Programm organisiert, das Einsteigern erste Kenntnisse im Programmieren vermitteln soll. Freitag Nachmittag richtet sich dabei an Neugierige, die nie zuvor programmiert haben. Wir erklären die Grundlagen des Web, HTML und CSS und entwerfen eine erste Webseite. Am Samstag tauchen wir dann endlich ein in die Programmierung von Software mit Ruby und knüpfen an den ersten Tag an, indem wir der Webseite durch eine Ruby on Rails-Anwendung Leben einhauchen. Sonntag ist dann für alle von euch, die gerne die Schwimmflügel ablegen wollen um den ersten richtigen Tauchgang zu bewältigen. Was das kostet? Gar nichts! Dank unserer Sponsoren ist der Besuch des gesamten Wochenendes für alle Teilnehmer kostenlos. Bewirb dich hier! (Noch x Plätze frei) Bewerbungsschluss ist der 03.11.2013. Bitte beachtet außerdem, dass wir nur einen begrenzten Platz haben und deshalb die Teilnehmerzahl beschränken müssen. Sollte die Kapazität bereits vor dem 03.11.2013 ausgereizt sein, werden wir die Bewerbungen früher schließen.

Hier geht es zur Bewerbung! Anmeldungschluss ist der 3. November.
