Programming for People


Details
IserveU is teaching people how to code. From their website:
IserveU is Yellowknife's largest open source project, and we welcome you to be a part of it. We'll teach you everything in the world you need to know about coding, if you'll join us and use those skills to change it. Being able to write code is an empowering skill to have on an individual basis, but it's when small groups of programmers come together that they change the world.
The Class
We will be diving straight in by setting up a deployment for the children doing the coding class with Jessica & Alexia. Following this we will show people how to contribute to the project on github and decide on a schedule for meeting.
