We would like to kindly thank DeVry for allowing
us to use their facility for this event.
 
Code Camps have been taking place all over the country.  This is a free, one-day event put on by the local Phoenix community to help promote software development in general.  There is no right or wrong language, platform, or technology.  If a topic relates in any way to the code that causes a machine to produce a desired result, it's welcome here.
Thanks for attending.
It was a good one.   Check back soon for information on the next one!


What is Code Camp?

The answer is actually simple. In order to use the official Code Camp name we follow these simple protocols:

  1. By and For the Developer Community
    Code Camps are about the developer community at large. They are meant to be a place for developers to come and learn from their peers. Topics are always based on community interest and never determined by anyone other than the community.
  2. Always Free
    Code Camps are always free for attendees.
  3. Community Developed Material
    The success of the Code Camps is that they are based on community content. All content that is delivered is original. All presentation content must be provided completely (including code) without any restriction. If you have content you don’t want to share or provide to attendees then the Code Camp is not the place for you.
  4. No Fluff – only Code
    Code Camps are about showing the code. Refer to rule #1 if you have any questions on this.
  5. Community Ownership
    The most important element of the Code Camp is always the developer community. All are welcome to attend and speak and do so without expectation of payment or any other compensation other than their participation in the community.
  6. Never occur during work hours<br /> We need to understand that many times people can’t leave work for a day or two to attend training or even seminars. The beauty of the Code Camp is that they always occur on weekends.
