See all- RESCHEDULED: Collaborative Coding Exercise with TDDLink visible for attendees
All experience levels welcome!
Our usual Monday Night slot has not been working out for me lately - so based on our Survey, I'm going to try a Thursday this month...
Since it's been a while, I thought it would be fun to get back into things with a Collaborative Coding Exercise from our collection - I'll have a few ready to go, but you're also welcome to bring your own, if you have anything you'd like to try!
Attendees are welcome to engage at the level they're most comfortable with as part of an Ensemble Programming Group(*): Writing code in a shared environment, providing ideas and suggestions, following along and asking questions, or any combination of the above.
( * Ensemble Programming is a newer, friendlier name for "Mob Programming", a social programming technique for planning, writing, and learning about code in a group setting.)
Schedule (Eastern Time):
6:45 PM: Setup (for Attendees who'd like to actively code)
7:00 PM: Begin tonight's exercise!
8:00 PM: (Break)
8:15 PM : Continue exercise
9:00 PM: Wrap up and further discussionThis remote event will happen over Zoom, and use Zoom Screen Sharing, along with a collaborative coding tools (such as GitPod.io or Github Codespaces) - We'll provide the environment, but the easiest way to access them is via a (free) Github account.
