RailsBridge Alumni Weekday Co-Working/Study Group

Are you a RailsBridge alum or volunteer looking for work or working independently? I'm more focused on coding when others are around, so let's work together! Let's meet for a morning of coding that can go into the afternoon--or not--feel free to leave when you want. Have some good coffee, some good food, network a bit, ask questions, get help, share what you're working on, and focus on coding!

Arlequin Cafe is near the Van Ness MUNI station, and the MUNI lines that run on Van Ness. It has free wifi and outlets, great food and coffee, the music's not too loud and they are very welcoming to us.

There's a nice patio outside we can move to if there's room and it's nice out.

I will get there early enough to get some tables, but unfortunately if people don't arrive within a half hour of the start time, I'll have to give the tables away, so please be there near the time you say you will! If you come late we can still squeeze you in, but people get a little cranky when they see someone holding empty tables near the outlets. :-/

    I'm a beginner learning Ruby/Rails + JS, would it make sense for me to join? Or should I check back in a couple months from now... :-)

      Alyssa, I will leave that up to you. You are more than welcome to come! There is no requirement that you be at a certain level. I simply started doing this to give myself (and others who have free time during the weekdays) an opportunity to work on whatever they're working on in a social environment. This is very loosely structured. There is no directed instruction, and all kinds of people show up and stay the whole time or just for a short time. Sometimes there are just a couple of people, but we've had as many as 11 show up. Sometimes it is very lively and collaborative, sometimes it's very heads-down. You never know what it's going to turn out to be. :)

    I'm a railsbridge alumn, but I am learning how to code iPhone apps. There is a new iPhone study group starting with women who code as well--I'm assuming this is open to all right?

      Hi Romy, Yes! I just wanted to get people together to do some social coding. You can work on whatever you want to!
