New to Rails? The RailsBridge workshop will take you from start to deploy on a new Rails project. Basic programming skills are taught for those with no programming experience, and an overview of the Rails stack is given to everyone! RailsBridge is geared towards getting more women into the traditionally male dominated Ruby on Rails open source community. Men are welcome as participants, but only as a guest of a female participant.
