Johannesburg Global Day of (Functional!) Coderetreat 2018

Details

Jemstep by Invesco is hosting and sponsoring a coderetreat as part of the Global Day of Coderetreat, with events happening all over the world.

This event will have a particular focus on functional programming concepts, so whether you're new to functional (but keen to learn), or an old hand, you're welcome!

If you are unfamiliar with Coderetreats, these are full-day events for intermediate/experienced programmers to get together and learn about TDD (Test Driven Development), pair-programming, new programming techniques and about learning/collaboration in general.

Please note that a familiarity with programming is a basic building-block for not "getting lost" and for having an enjoyable experience at the Coderetreat, although people who are eager to learn and share out-of-the-box ideas will also find this event exciting and fun.

Space for the event is limited, and in order to secure your spot, a R100 deposit is payable. The deposit is refundable at the event.
