Javascript Beginner's Workshop in Celebration of Anita Borg - Viz on the Web!

Please note that this event is not hosted at Stylight but at TUM in Garching.

To celebrate Anita Borg's Birthday, Stylight partners with Google and TUM to spread the word about a unique series of events.

You have never coded before? Now is the time to start - join us for Anita Borg's Celebration at TU Munich and learn how to create amazing visualizations with JavaScript!

JavaScript is a modern programming language that makes you create really cool websites. These websites are beautiful and interactive; they are surely remembered and visited again. Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Yahoo, Google and our own website - all use JavaScript.

Just bring your laptop to code away together with us!
