Hack on your project with other Pythonistas on SFpython's Project Night

The SF Python meetup is always looking for ways to welcome Pythonistas into the Python community in the Bay Area. We’d like to announce the first Project Night - an opportunity to come work on your Python related projects, get programming help, and welcome newcomers to the Python community. We’ll have mentors available to answer your questions. Pizza, beverages, power and WiFi will be provided by our facility host Adroll.

Who should attend?

New to Python and want to work with other Pythonistas

Experienced devs who want to hack on your work, personal or open-source projects

Experienced devs who want to mentor others (please sign-up (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1QwjacanenkZ4VrsrHpe8zDrobDr_sPvrSxlAUGjSAA8/viewform) here)

The plan:

6:30p Welcome remarks

6:35p Introductions: tell us about your project and/or the kind of help you seek

6:45p Make yourself comfortable and start hacking

9:30p Wrap up

Example of projects to hack on:

Personal side projects - your web application or personal learning project

Open source projects - work on open issues or recruit developers for your project

Work projects - work on anything you like and bounce ideas around

P.S. If you are new to Python, we’ll have sample projects to tackle, or you might consider:
