Rails Girls (railsgirls.com) is an international initiative, aimed at bringing women closer to the world of web development and giving them tools to build their ideas. In the past three years there have been around 120 Rails Girls workshops in different cities around the world, and a few months ago we decided it's time to bring the initiative to Israel.
We had an amazing day, teaching very enthusiastic girls with no programming experience how to build a web application from scratch. most of the 35 women who participated (out of over 350 applications!) said that they would probably continue learning Web development in the future. As we plan our next events, I would like to give you a peek to what was there and to what's next.
