Interested in learning Ruby and Rails with an awesome group of women? Looking to build your first web app, learn more about coding, or build on existing skills? Come to our weekly ROR group! We welcome women with all levels of experience. You will be able to ask your fellow coders questions and help each other work through issues. We encourage any advanced ROR devs to come and help others! There's always at least one mentor present to help you with best practices or guide you through if you are stuck with a nasty problem!

Meetup Agenda

• 6:30pm - Setup and start working

• 7pm - Break for quick introductions

• 7:15pm - Ruby Fundamentals Workshop

• 8:15 - 8:30pm - Wrap Up

Looking for something to work on?

For those who are new to coding or new to Rails, we recommend Michael Hartl's Rails Tutorial. For those who have some experience already but are looking for projects, we recommend Mackenzie Child's 12 in 12 apps. You are always welcome to come and work on something else if you like.

Contact policy at buildings that need access

Certain building managements requires meetup hosts to let people in and do not encourage them being contacted. Please respect the policy, in case the location requires access to the building contact the group lead if information is provided, or drop a comment on the meetup page. We'll come and get you. Want to be a Ruby on Rails Study Group leader? If you are passionate about learning ROR with fellow awesome women and want to help us, come on out! Drop us a message or email us and let us know that you are interested in helping us with the Rails study group!
