What happens at a sprint night?
---------------------
NYC Python Sprint Night are an opportunity to work on open source software, often with the help of local core devs. At each Sprint Night, we pick one or more open source projects and attendees will all work to improve the software in the Python ecosystem!

Even if you have not participated in an open source project before, you are still welcome to attend!

What to expect
---------------------
This is an ALL SKILLS LEVELS event - whether you're an open source beginner or a github guru, you'll definitely be able to contribute. You can work individually or in groups, however you feel comfortable.

In addition to contributors to the project, others familiar with the GitHub workflow will be available to help guide you in making a contribution.

What to bring
---------------------
- A laptop
- A government-issued identification card (to get into the building)
- a library you want to package (optional)

To be extra-prepared:
- Make sure you have `git` installed! (we can help you with this)
