Global Day of Code Retreat 2024

What are coderetreats?

Coderetreats are free day-long, intensive practice events, focusing on the fundamentals of software development and design. By providing developers the opportunity to take part in focused practice, away from the pressures of "getting things done", the coderetreat format has proven itself to be a highly effective means of learning and nurturing software development skills.

All over the world, people are coming together in small communities of practices to learn, explore and grow. Join us on the Global Day of Coderetreat on Nov 09, 2024 or discover local communities around you!

What to expect

We will carry out programming exercises (Code Katas) in pairs applying different constraints to the same problem.

Programmers of all abilities are welcome. Every attendee will be learning and contributing to the event.

On the day

The day will start at 09:00 and end at 17:30.

Food will be provided thanks to our sponsors Codurance. Please share your dietary needs in advance to ensure we can cater for you.

There will be ample bike parking at the Raspberry Pi Foundation, but car parking will be limited. The nearest car park is the Grand Arcade Car park at Corn Exchange St, Cambridge, CB2 3QF.

What do I need to bring?

If you're able to, bring a laptop with a programming environment of your choice set up and configured. You'll be through 5 different programming exercise with another attendee during the day.
