Hallo, Wien!
Rails Girls took place in Vienna on 18 and 19 January 2013!
During this free two-day workshop we dove into the magical world of programming with Ruby on Rails.
You learn designing, prototyping and coding with the help of our coaches.
You need your own laptop, curiosity and a sprinkle of imagination!
Want to help? We are always looking for volunteers and Rails coaches for future events. E-mail us.
