Django Girls Kampala

If you are female and you want to learn how to build websites, we have good news for you! We are holding a one-day workshop for beginners!

It will take place during the PyCon Uganda conference, at National ICT Innovation Hub. We would like to give you an opportunity to learn how to program and become one of us - female programmers!

The workshop is free of charge and if you are interested in being part of this training, you can apply for a pass now!!

Apply for a pass!

If you are a woman and you have a laptop - you can apply for a pass! You don't need to know any technical stuff - The 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
  • Get a chance to meet other ladies in the tech world
  • Interact with the organizers and some of the sponsors

Become a participant

Feel free to apply and also tell a friend about this workshop. Let's dream, code and create.

Do I need to know anything about websites or programming?

No! This workshop is for beginners. You do not 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!

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 will write and create during the workshop.

Do I need to have something installed on my laptop?

It would be helpful to have Django installed before the workshop, but we wouldn't expect you to install anything on your own. We will have an installation party the evening before the workshop.

Do I need to be part of Django girls already?

No. You need to sign up for the tutorial session and you will join the group for other activities if interested.
