Description
WonderCoders is proud to present a new initiative "SheTech:The Coding club".
A place where beginners in programming as well as more experienced female (male welcome as well) developers get together, share knowledge and support each other.
If you are working on a project that involves programming and you need help or support from fellow coders, this is the right place for you.
If you don't have a project of your own, but want to learn how to code and be surrounded by people sharing the same interests then come by and we will help you get started.

Why are we doing this?
1. One of the many reason women don't pursue career in tech is because they feel they don't belong there. The IT industry is still a boys club. With SheTech: The Coding club, we want to create a place where everyone feels like they fit in.
2. Computer programming is an essential skill to have when pursuing a career in 21st century. It makes you more attractive on the job market and if you are an entrepreneur - knowing how to code can help you better understand the work of your developers and help you improve the communication with your dev team.
3. The tech industry is very male dominated. We badly need female perspective there.
Technology is the future and women make 85% of buying decisions in tech. It's about time to become creators and not just consumers in the digital world.
------
Every month we have a different guest Role model and a topic of the meetup.
This time the topic will be --> HTML/CSS/BOOTSTRAP and JS, since this is the theme of our events in January. (*Don't be scared if you don't know these terms.)
It is totally fine if you don't have any experience with programming, we will help you discover your super power. ;)
Just bring your computer and a good mood.
**Wonder Coders mission is to inspire more women to pursue careers in tech, but the doors to our events are open to everyone.***
