We run free @railsbridge workshops in Wellington, NZ, for underrepresented groups in tech to make web apps with Ruby on Rails. Get excited and make things!
RailsBridge Wellington is a non-profit event powered by volunteers and sponsors. Without the companies mentioned in the previous tweets, we wouldn't be able to do what we do. So a massive THANK YOU from our crew to these folk for supporting this event 💗
A huge HUGE thanks to our Ruby sponsors: @fluxfederation (who also sponsored the venue!), @TalentArmyHQ, and @boostnz! This event wouldn't have been possible without your support ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you to everyone who made this weekend so fantastic! The attendees put in an amazing effort! And we couldn't have done it without our fabulous coaches! 💗
Some learnings shared by groups at demo time:
- Everything takes longer than you think
- Team is King
- Things don't make sense for a while
- Brainstorming is great
- Animals and humour make a great combo!
- Write plain English first, then convert to code
