The UMBC ACM student chapter will host the second meetup of Baltimore Code Craftsmanship user group at 6:45pm on Thursday, October 24 in the ITE building on the UMBC Campus.
This meetup is for the students and software developers in the Baltimore area that care about the quality of their work and want to practice and improve their programming skills, share what they know and learn new things from others.
Members of the UMBC community can RSVP for the event by completing this form. More details can be found on the form or below. Participants outside of the UMBC community should register on the meetup site. Registration for this meetup is available for a limited number of participants.
This is a hands on coding user group with no presentations. Each meeting will be a dojo where we will go through a challenging software craftsmanship exercise that focuses on clean code, test-driven development, design patterns, and refactoring. We will pair up and practice on a kata in order to learn and apply the values, principles, and disciplines of software craftsmanship. Come with your laptop equipped with your favorite programming and automated unit testing environment. If you don’t have a laptop, come anyway, we will need only one laptop for every two people. Be prepared to pair up, learn, share and have fun!
The event is open to all UMBC students, however programming ability is required. Interested faculty members can join in too! This can also be a good opportunity to network with professionals from various companies and get yourself noticed for any job opportunities that exist.
