What?
Cohort based practical learning for beginner developers in WWCode Frontend Track.
Why?
For a while now, WWCode Frontend has targeted Women with at least a year’s programming experience. However, now more than ever we see women making a switch to web development and hence beginning the learning journey. This initiative seeks to help such women speed up their learning processes, while helping them to gain confidence through practice.
Importance of this project:
⁃ New developers build confidence ⁃ Reduces the chances of Imposter Syndrome ⁃ Equips new WWCode Frontend members with basic web development knowledge and practice before ushering them into the main group. This will enable them to relate better with content shared and confidently contribute.
