Patchwork is a hands-on Git and GitHub workshop coming to Phoenix, designed for both beginners eager to learn and advanced users interested in mentoring. Scheduled for May 19, 2018, at SAP Tempe, this casual and informal event offers participants the chance to explore various learning modules such as introduction to GitHub, markdown communication, GitHub Pages, and managing merge conflicts, among others. The workshop encourages a self-directed learning approach with community mentors available for guidance, and aims to boost newcomers' confidence to engage with the open source community by the end of the session. Organized in partnership with Girls In Tech, the event promises to offer fun incentives like stickers and special rewards for mentors, along with food and refreshments for all attendees. Participants are encouraged to RSVP, and those without a GitHub account are advised to sign up prior to attending.
