This is a space where women can come together and help each other learn and understand web development. We welcome devs of all levels and encourage those with more experience to help out those that are just starting. There's always at least one mentor/leader present to help you with best practices or to guide you through if you are stuck with a nasty problem! Every study group will have the following format:

• 6:30pm - Begin
• 6:40 - 6:50pm - Quick Introductions
• 6:50 - 8:00pm - CODE!
• 8:00 - 8:20pm - Lightning Talk (a quick presentation or talk) (if planned)
• 8:20 - 8:30pm - Wrap Up

All events are scheduled via our Meetup page. We meet every Monday 6:30-08:30 pm.

Check out our Guide to front end for first timers, that also contains information on how to learn about coding. Go through the recommended resources and ask lots of questions!

We super encourage you to attend the study group, work on a personal project or take one of the recommended courses to further your skills, help others with questions they might have, consider doing a lighting talk, consider being a lead!

Please refer to these guidelines.

YES! We are always looking for more leads and if you're interested in getting involved in Women Who Code in any capacity talk to one of the leads present!

We need lots of help coordinating events. If you want to help out please let us know :)

The WWC-DC community uses Slack to keep in touch, share resources, and chat about all things tech. You can use Slack to ask troubleshooting questions or general questions about coding (in any language) and the tech industry. We encourge you to sign up here: http://bitly.com/womenwhocodedcslack (and read our guide if you need more help - http://bit.ly/slackguide)

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.

This study group is intended to be exclusively open for any who identify as women; we are transgender friendly.

Happy coding! :)
