Who is this aimed for? Women of any age with basic knowledge of working with a computer. We’ve had people of all ages taking part. All you need to take with you is open attitude and your laptop.
Can men attend? Yes, but you need to be accompanied by an interested lady. Also, girls are given a priority.
I know how to program - How can I help? We’re also looking for people to be coaches. You don't need to be a Ruby on Rails guru, we're looking for people who know basics of web development and have the right attitude. Email us
