Side Projects
Come join us for another casual meetup to hack away at your side projects at The Oxford Taproom on Quinpool Road.
Whether you're debugging your latest app, diving into a new framework, contributing to open source, or brainstorming your next startup idea, bring your laptop and code alongside fellow developers.
New to programming or just getting started with your first project? Perfect! Come learn from the community, pair program, or just soak up the hacker spirit while you take your first steps into code.
Schedule
There’s no formal agenda, but we tend to start collecting around 6 PM, and start packing around 8 PM. However there have been times when people started earlier, and sometimes we get so in the zone we stay way later.
The Oxford closes at 11 PM though, so that's the latest we can stay before calling it a night.
Why is this event being held?
Our community is full of incredibly creative and brilliant individuals, many of whom spend considerable time working independently side by side in cafes and on campus. While we occasionally share what we're working on, there is a lack of intentional community focused on this vital aspect of our lives. Collect. seeks to create a space that builds this community, and fosters deeper collaboration that might not naturally emerge within the current environment in Halifax.
Should I come if I don't have a project I am actively working?
Yes! If you do not have a passion project, or idea you are working on currently, Collect. offers the right atmosphere for getting the ball rolling. Come brainstorm, collaborate, and take the first step to starting that passion project you've always wanted to pursue.
Do I have to Demo?
Unlike our Thursday events, there’s no formal demo period. However, participants are welcome to show-and-tell amongst themselves.
