Project Night @ Checkr
Into Python and want to experience how cool the Python Community is?
Join ~100 Pythonistas at SF Python's Project Night on May 15 at Checkr!
The format is similar to an un-conference. We start with an amazing food and drink reception from our generous sponsor Checkr. After formal introductions, Pythonistas join up with like minds to:
- learn, share, and contribute at planned and spontaneous Special Interest Groups (SIG)
- hack on your own projects
Who should attend?
- Anyone interested in our SIGs
- Anyone who want to hack on your work, personal or open-source projects
- Experienced devs who want to lead a regular or spontaneous discussion group
- Anyone interested in mentoring others
The plan:
- 6:00p Begin check-in
- 6:50p Introductions: tell us about your project and/or the kind of help you seek
- 7:00p Make yourself comfortable and start hacking, or attend one of the tutorials or SIGs
- 7:30p Door Close to late entries
- 9:30p Wrap up / Hard Stop
Special interest groups
Biocommons SIG
