Want to learn how to code? Have a great idea? Don't be shy. Develop it. It can be intimidating for women to learn and ask questions when they are in an extreme minority. While open and welcoming, today's budding developer community is up to 91% male. There isn't a comfortable place where women can learn at their own pace and not be afraid to ask "stupid questions." We decided it was time to provide a place where all questions are OK and everyone can learn in a supportive environment. Our courses focus on coding, leveraging existing technology, and having something to show for it (aka building sweet websites). Stay tuned to this meetup for upcoming scheduled classes.

JavaScript is a language that all good web developers must know. Around since the early 90s, it's still the primary way to do client side web development. We will be covering everything from basic JavaScript, the jQuery library, and dynamic HTML to JSON and APIs. Students will exit this class having a good grasp of basic programming principles and the knowledge of how to manipulate HTML elements.We suggest having a working knowledge of HTML as a pre-requisite for this course.
