Workshops 🔨

We organize a variety of workshops. Here is a list of them below:

• Codewars Workshops. These workshops focus on coding problems and are akin to our whiteboard sessions. To graduate, you need to accumulate 400 points on Codewars. Participating in these workshops is an excellent way to gain experience and progress toward achieving your goal!
• 1-UP Workshops. These workshops cover a wide range of topics, including creating a Discord bot, developing a Pokémon game, working on new Python modules, or even building an app with Docker!
