Let's get together and build some awesome stuff with code. We'll hold an impromptu co-working space where you can work on a project, pair, learn, and mingle. You can hack on anything! Any language, framework, public/open-source, personal, etc. You don’t have to have an idea to hack on! You’re more than welcome to come just to pair with someone.

**Build Night is built for all skill levels.** Come with what you know. If you have something you're interested in learning, Build Night is a good place to do so because there will be experts in the room to help with just about anything.

🎥 Watch [this 4m20s interviews video](https://youtu.be/8YGGxYX3ZoE) to hear why people love Build Night!

**Agenda**

6:00 - Doors Open
We don't expect everyone to be on time. Walk-in, grab a drink, and meet someone at your table.

6:30 - Project Introductions
Tell the room who you are and what you're working on

6:40 - Build Session
Check out the projects that interested you from the introductions, welcome someone to pair with you, or continue chatting with the people around you.

8:15 - Closing Circle
We'll talk about what we did, even if it's nothing!

**Project Inspirations**

* Work on a personal website, portfolio, or résumé.
* Work on some open-source projects that you use that could use some help exercising their new-developer onboarding.
* Pick an issue tagged *help-wanted* in the repo for an open-source project you use daily.
* Create a [dotfiles ](https://dotfiles.github.io/)repo to contain your software toolbox
* Find a generative art project, learn how it works, and create your own art by making small changes to it.
* Talk about open source projects you're working on with others.
* Ask C&S about what open source projects we have that could use some brains.
* **Work on building a presentation for a C&S Meetup and [submit it](https://codeandsupply.co/speak).**
* Learn more about[ C&S Compensation Survey](https://codeandsupply.co/survey) and how you can help make it a success

Things not to do:

* Ask for homework help and expect in-depth help. Some participants may be willing to help a little with programming homework but please expect to work on your homework by yourself maybe with some nudges.
* Ask participants to sign up for a free trial for your non-open-source commercial product to try it out. Any commercial solicitation requires prior arrangements with C&S.

If you have to, it's OK to work on work at Build Night. We'd rather have you there than not!

**Conduct Policy**

We expect all participants to follow these rules within all Code & Supply venues and events, virtual or in-person, and within all official Code & Supply communication channels.

Code & Supply is dedicated to providing an enjoyable event for everyone and expects participants at our events to act in a way that promotes an environment that is harassment-free, safe, comfortable, and enjoyable to be a part of.

Please RSVP Yes if you really, truly are planning to come, as we may sometimes provide light food and want an accurate count.
