Tools of the Trade

This repository hosts the web site and related materials for a series of meet-ups about software development tools.

From the website:

Tools of the Trade (TotT) is a recurring meet-up for students who want more practice finding, learning, applying, and evaluating tools used in modern software development. The goal is to build experience and confidence in a friendly, fun, collaborative environment. Every week we will:

Pick a tool or topic of interest (e.g., Git, Ruby, Backbone, Pandas, BDD, ...)

Do a bit of background reading or video watching about our choice to prep for our meeting.

Meet face-to-face to hack on practice problems or small projects together in a common development environment.

Help one another and share our experience in person and online.

I plan to build out the material for this meet-up entirely in the public eye. The source for the web site, slidecasts, tottbox Packer build config, and tottbox Vagrantfile will live under http://github.com/parente/tott. Starter code for session exercises and projects will reside in separate repositories prefixed with tott- under http://github.com/parente.

If you have a suggestion or see a problem, open an issue. If you want to contribute an entire session, fork and submit a pull request.
