Ruby Night September: Hacknight - Write your AI battle ship - Take 2
Details
We will run a hacknight this Monday evening. Bring your laptop. Write some Ruby (or other programming language). Drive your battle ship into the glorious fight.
We have modified [Clash.js](https://clashjs.com/) repo to have it running on Rails so you can write AI (or "Human-assited AI") in Ruby. No need to learn about anything first we'll walk through the setup and API and basic rules. Then everyone can team up or solo, join the arena (running on the big screen) with your own AI battleship, or even a fleet!
Agenda for the night:
- 19:00 review Game Rules from Clash.js
- review API / Examples for clashjs_on_rails
- Questions
- Team up & code & discussions
- 20:30 Final Tournament
- 20:40 Share: talk about your code
Links will be used during the session:

- Launch the Rails instance: https://github.com/layerssss/clashjs_on_rails

This is a monthly group that explores the use of Ruby (and its friends). We welcome anyone interested in the language!
Looking forward to seeing you all,
Michael & Juri
