JavaScript x AI (dev jam)

Hey there! It's been a while, and we apologize for the delay. But here's the exciting news: we're diving into the world of AI this time!

We're not AI experts, but that's what makes it fun! Together, we'll explore tools like Hugging Face and OpenAI resources, and create awesome projects. No lengthy presentations—instead, we'll have a collaborative dev jam inspired by game jams.

Get ready for an amazing time as we unleash our creativity and dive into AI magic! Stay tuned for more details. Don't worry if you're not an expert either; we'll learn and grow together. 😎🚀

Location

NodeSchool Rotterdam is hosted at Hackerspace Pixelbar, which is located in the Keilewerf (Vierhavensstraat 56, Rotterdam). To find Pixelbar, and its entrance, we added this little video on Youtube: https://youtu.be/kjGywfjhbyY (if there's another door open, like one of the bigger shutter doors, you can use that - but you still have to find Pixelbar inside).

There is (limited) parking space available. If you're coming with public transportation: you can take the stop at Marconiplein and walk your way up towards the KFC and take a left into the Vierhavensstraat. After about 450 meters, you’ll be at our building (recognisable by the art on the exterior of the building).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to bring anything?
A: Well, a laptop is kind of handy to start doing some actual programming. But don't require anything else besides a good mood!

Q: Who will be there?
A: A few mentors will always be available to help you. Either to answer questions, to make some examples, to give you hints or whatever you think need to get a step closer towards your goal of being a badass programmer.

Q: How long does the workshop take?
A: It really depends on you. You're welcome to stay as long as you want or is required. But the mentors will give a hint when they think it's time to wrap up.

Q: Is any programming knowledge needed beforehand?
A: Not really. If you're completely new however, it would be helpful to check out some Youtube videos and get somewhat familiar, but it's not required. Experts are also very welcome (also to help as mentor!) - we try to make it as challenging as possible for everyone.
