What weâre about
Welcome to the world's largestđĽ and most active developer community on crafting software. All events are free, online, in English, and after work (from 18:00 EET / 17:00 CET). Past events are recorded on this YouTube Channel.
"Software Crafting"... What's that?
This is a community for those who care and are proud of what we do. For those developers, regardless of how experienced they are, who want to improve and master their craft. This is a place for those who believe that being average is not good enough.
The Manifesto of Software Craftsmanship
As aspiring Software Craftsmen we are raising the bar of professional software development by practicing it and helping others learn the craft. Through this work we have come to value:
⢠Not only working software, but also well-crafted software
⢠Not only responding to change, but also steadily adding value
⢠Not only individuals and interactions, but also a community of professionals
⢠Not only customer collaboration, but also productive partnerships
That is, in pursuit of the items on the left we have found the items on the right to be indispensable.
We are Passionate Software Developer aiming to get better at their profession, no matter the programming language.
We believe in the power of example, so passionate members and organizers will regularly aim to grow passion in the apprentices in this community.
