Yes. We have no hardware, so we expect you to bring your laptop with you. It is also important for us that you will take home everything you’ll write and create during workshops.
Do I need to have something installed on my laptop?
It would be helpful to have Django installed before workshops, but wouldn't expect you to install anything on your own.We will make sure that one of our coaches will help you out with this task.
Is Django Girls, Kogi good for a total beginner?
Sure!!! It is. All we expect of you is that you are interested in learning coding. Even though you are new to programming,the event is a good place to meet many interesting people and find inspiration.
