A Rails Girls Introduction to Web


Description

Rails Girls is a non-profit global community to help girls get started with tech. Our aim is to give tools for women to understand technology and build their ideas. We provide a first time experience on building things and make technology more approachable.

The intro to Rails Girls goes through some fundamental concepts and building blocks of the Internet in a fun, interactive session. BYOL: Bring Your Own Laptop (encouraged, not mandatory!)
