Patchwork is hosting an event in Okayama, Japan, aimed at beginners in Git and GitHub, as well as mentors eager to assist others in learning these tools. Scheduled for May 11, 2018, at the wheelchair-accessible 岡山国際交流センター, the event promises a casual, hands-on workshop environment where attendees can learn at their own pace with the support of community mentors. Participants will have access to the git-it-electron app for learning modules, and they are encouraged to download it prior to the event due to limited internet speed at the venue. The event offers the opportunity to engage with the open-source community, with the promise of leaving with a merged pull request and increased confidence. Mentors will have a chance to guide newcomers, and all attendees can enjoy food and refreshments while making new connections. Attendees need to RSVP, ensure they have a GitHub account, and register for venue wifi access in advance.
