Codebar Brighton at Angry Creative

Yesterday evening the office was buzzing with development tutors and students sharing knowledge in code.

Team Leader Tom Chute made everyone feel welcome at the start by introducing Angry Creative to the tutors and students, and WordPress Developer Adam Hollister shared his coding knowledge with the student attendees.

I had a really great time at Codebar yesterday evening. I decided to coach and see if I could make myself useful to someone learning code.

The evening started with the attendees hanging out and chatting in our meeting room with some pizza, then at about 7pm we all congregated in rooms sorted by the different technologies the attendees were learning. Once we got started it was pretty encouraging to watch someone learning as we progressed through the tutorials.

My experience at Codebar showed me that there are a lot of people out there with an interest in learning how to code and an equal number of people (at least there were last night) who are willing to volunteer their time to help coach under-represented groups take their first steps into a sometimes daunting and confusing subject.

If you’re looking to learn how to code in a comfortable, inclusive environment, we would strongly recommend attending your local Codebar!
