Hello and welcome to Plymouth, we are so lucky to be here meeting fellow coders. Besides events like this are there many places you can meet coders with skills that you need or just meet a friend who also likes to code. Pin the coder is my faveourite way to connect with other coders who are in projects that interest you through the magic of some code. Through 4 days of yrs we have made a project sourcer for coders. You can sign up to register project or a skill that you already have and the website will show you a google map of all the coders in the area from which you can read short bios and choose who you would like to pair up with. And then you can contact them. We also have a twilio tech support number that users can contact us through our twilio support number.
Everyone had the same brief which was to make an open source data webpage, . Upon which Team 404 elaborated upon to come up with pin the coder, many coders are stuck with the problem of having no projects. We took the communication part and looked at who we could choose to target our product at and we realized that coders where the best people to base our website on You are web surfers and web hackers why cant you be web communicators too ? Pin the Coder is the first of it’s kind and will revolutionize the way we code, bringing us together by ourselves through the languages we love so much. We all started somewhere we all love a code language Pin the Coder gives you a chance to share and spread that love, to build it into a massive networking site for peole who share things in common, somewhere for coders to call home.
We used 3 different coding languages. You can make any project in the world on our site because you are not limted by what you know only who you know.
We had a great time coding and we had a really cool group. We all worked together but we split into groups to cover css,html and javascript. We made our logo on the first day which as you can see is a coder stuck inside a pin. We had some great mentors and we got some good publicity through twitter and facebook. We even got some comments from famous people!
Pin the Coder is a free way to source skills and friends. To get inspiration and to learn new languages in code, to share your love with new people and to ultimately spread the word about yrs and coding. Now remember STAY CONNECTED !!!
