Django Girls

Join us as we celebrate a significant milestone: the 10th anniversary of Django Girls, an initiative born at EuroPython 2014 in Berlin. This special occasion marks a decade of empowering women in technology through engaging and accessible programming education.

If you're a woman interested in learning how to build websites, we have fantastic news for you! We are hosting a beginner-friendly, one-day workshop.

It will take place on Monday 8th July at Prague Congress Centre in Prague.

We believe the IT industry will greatly benefit from bringing more women into technology. We want to give you an opportunity to learn how to program!

Workshops are free of charge.

 

Apply for the workshop!

If you are a woman, know English and have a laptop, you can apply for our event! You don't need to know any technical stuff – our workshop is for people who are new to programming.

As a workshop attendee you will attend a one-day Django workshop during which you will create your first website.

Capacity is limited.

In order to apply, please fill in the following form: 

https://djangogirls.org/en/prague/apply.

Do I need to know anything about websites or programming?

No! Workshops are for beginners. You don’t need to know anything about it. However, if you have a little bit of technical knowledge (i.e. you know what HTML or CSS are) you still can apply!

 

Will the workshop be held in English or in Czech?

Workshop will be in English, don't worry if your English isn't perfect, we're not native speakers either!

 

Should I bring my own laptop?

Yes. We have no hardware, so we expect you to bring your computer 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, we will place instructions on installation in an email to all with directions to workshop.

ℹ️ Please follow installation instructions via Django Girls Django Tutorial.

 

Is Django Girls for women only?

No! All genders can apply. We want to bring more diverse community into programming.

NOTE: This event is for 18 years and over. If you have any questions, you can contact us

 

I'm not attending EuroPython, can I attend?

Yes! Just apply via the link (once it's live).

If you are accepted, you will be given free access to attend the workshop, even if you are not attending the rest of the EuroPython conference.
