Typelevel Open Source Hack London
Join the Typelevel community for a fun day of hacking, collaborating, and contributing to open source projects. Whether you’re a seasoned Scala developer or just getting started, this is the perfect opportunity to level up your skills, meet like-minded coders, and contribute to Open Source! We will follow the Typelevel Code of Conduct.
After a quick introduction, we will help everyone find a project they want to work on and disperse into groups. At end of the afternoon we'll gather up and share what we've done and learned that day :)
Additionally, during the hackathon Arman will teach a workshop on Cats Effect, FS2, and Calico. There is limited capacity, so select a "Workshop" ticket to reserve your space.
Registration is free! A suggested donation of £20 will help make this event possible. Thank you for your support!
