An Evening of Kibitzing and Coding.

Columbus Code Jam is a casual meetup to pair on cool projects, to get one-on-one guidance from experienced developers & sys admins, to network, learn, and eat pizza.

Some topics we've discussed while hacking:

Git Workflows for moving from single-developers to small teams.

Modelling tree structures in RDBMS tables and the SQL to query them.

Computing in the bad-old-days of dial-up.

What are the IT needs of a small not-for-profit foundation looking to create an informational web site for foundation members/subscribers?

How often does one need to collect data samples to monitor the performance of an application.

Demonstrating the difference between 'programming' and 'coding' by deriving an algorithm to sort a list of numbers.

Where can an entrepreneur go in Columbus to find technical resources and/or investors.

What additional tools and skills are needed to go from an HTML/CSS/JS prototype to a full-featured application.

How to refactor large methods into several smaller methods in a Rails Model.

What kinds of web site analytics are available for word press sites?

What are some good online resources for a single-founder software startup dealing with marketing and launching software products?

Come and add your voice and language to the conversation.

Please RSVP so that we can ensure that there are enough refreshments for everybody.

Pair Programming & Mentoring

Step away from the holiday chaos and join us for a relaxed evening of **pair programming and mentoring** with FreeCodeCamp Columbus! This event is not just about coding — it's about connecting with others who share your passion for learning and development.

Whether you're looking to **sharpen your coding skills**, **get personalized guidance from experienced mentors**, or simply **meet fellow coders**, this event offers something for everyone. Plus, it's a chance to get out and socialize with like-minded people in a laid-back environment. No pressure, just good conversation, learning, and fun.

**What to expect:**

* **Pair Programming**: Collaborate with others to solve coding challenges and learn new skills together. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, there's always something to gain from coding side by side.
* **Mentorship**: Have specific questions or need help on a project? Our experienced mentors are here to offer support and guidance, helping you take your coding to the next level.
* **Networking and Socializing**: Sometimes you just need a break to chat with others who get it! This is a great opportunity to connect with local developers, swap ideas, and maybe even find future collaborators.
* **Laid-Back Atmosphere**: No need to stress! This event is all about learning and connecting in a relaxed, supportive environment. Bring your laptop and your curiosity — we’ll handle the rest.

Whether you're here to dive into coding or just to hang out and learn from others, you’ll leave feeling energized and ready to tackle your projects.
