Code & Coffee: As Good As Ever!

In the midst of these isolations, shutdowns, social guidelines, and restrictions Code & Coffee is as strong as ever. Maybe even better!

Introduction

Code & Coffees are informal co-working sessions usually hosted by volunteers who invite people from all skill levels to join.

Often these sessions are sponsored by businesses that offer working spaces (conference rooms, staff cafeterias, etc.) and coffee. Bonus, often the businesses also sponsor by providing donuts or bagels, too.

Despite that they are informal, the formats from place-to-place are similar. Somehow the format seems to have caught on across the world. Each Code & Coffee offers some version of the events in the sequence listed below.

If you’ve never been to a Code & Coffee, here is what you need to know.

• They are informal but there is some structure, too.
• Most start with a round of introductions where everyone has an opportunity to introduce themselves and the work they do.
• Also, during the introductions attendees usually explain what they’ll be working on, what they can help others with, and what how or if they might like some help from others.
