|
||
| ### Django Girls | ||
|
|
||
| Django Girls is a welcoming, hands-on workshop designed specifically for women and other underrepresented groups with little to no previous programming experience. Throughout this full-day session, participants will build their very own web application using Python and Django, guided by experienced mentors who provide personalized support every step of the way. The workshop follows a carefully designed curriculum that makes web development accessible and fun, creating a supportive environment where beginners can ask questions, experiment, and celebrate their progress together. | ||
|
|
||
| No prior knowledge is required: just bring your curiosity and a laptop, and by the end of the day, you'll have deployed your first web application to the internet! | ||
|
|
||
| We are also looking for **mentors** for Django Girls. If you're interested in applying to mentor, please fill out this form. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Humble Data | ||
|
|
||
| Humble Data is an inclusive, beginner-friendly workshop that introduces participants to data science using Python. It is aimed at people from underrepresented groups in tech but is open to everyone. Throughout this interactive session, you'll learn essential Python programming concepts while exploring real-world datasets, creating visualizations, and discovering patterns through analysis. Experienced mentors will guide you through each step, from setting up your environment to implementing data analysis techniques. The workshop emphasizes a hands-on approach where you'll actively work with tools like Jupyter notebooks, pandas, and matplotlib in a supportive, collaborative atmosphere. | ||
|
|
||
| No prior programming or data science experience is necessary: just bring your laptop and curiosity, and you'll leave with practical skills to begin your data science journey. | ||
