Beginners welcome
Patchwork is a hands-on workshop for learning Git and GitHub. Join us to meet new people over snacks and great discussion.
Newcomers to Git and GitHub, you’ll leave with a merged Pull Request, a square on your contributions graph, and confidence to get more involved in the open source community.
Mentors, if you’ve ever had a Pull Request merged, come help others feel that warm glow of accomplishment!
Learning is better together
@jlord, @kansaichris, @michaeltwofish, @muan, @dice, and community mentors will be on hand to answer your questions and help you achieve your first merged Pull Request.
