ClojureBridge Bangalore

Bangalore, India

29–30 March 2019

Description

ClojureBridge is a beginner-friendly Clojure programming workshop for women.

You’ll learn fundamental programming concepts in Clojure through practical examples and exercises. Teachers and assistants are there to guide you and help you build your first apps in Clojure.

The workshop is open to people who are completely new to programming, through to existing developers new to Clojure. We organize attendees into small groups with at least one teacher and one assistant.

Attendees must RSVP through the Meetup event page, as spaces are limited. ClojureBridge is dedicated to increasing diversity in the Clojure community, men are welcome as the guest of a woman who would like to attend. ClojureBridge is emphatically queer and trans-friendly.
