Clear your calendar! Nike and Puppet are collaborating to host the 2nd We Code Hackathon for women and friends. Web designers and developers of all levels are invited to work on a fun project in small teams at this creative and collaborative coding event. You’ll have an opportunity to meet and work with other talented people, develop your skills, and create new applications. T-shirts, prizes, and great food from local restaurants will be provided.
Women and friends of any level of programming experience are encouraged to join. Teams will be assigned to ensure that there is a fair distribution of skillsets and experience levels across teams.
This is meant to be a safe and welcome environment open to all without discrimination. Although this list cannot be exhaustive, we honor and respect diversity in age, culture, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, race, religion, sexual orientation, and technical ability.
We encourage you to take public transportation or bike to the event.
