This summer, we want to grow coders by offering a series of powerful presentations about actual coding industry practices. As a community, we decided that lunch is a better time than 9pm on a beautiful summer night – and since the pandemic created new ways of working, we’d exploit that with our first lunch and learn. (On the west coast, it might be breakfast and learn). Regardless, we invite you to another set of free talks targeted toward individual developers. Our first talk is June 2nd, 2021 and our second is July 7th (details to follow).

We’d like to thank Dave for leading us through mainframe development including a hands on demonstration of test driving Cobol with cobol check using VSCode.
This last month, Nathan Carver volunteered to lead a small group of us through the Pac-Man kata in C#. We had about 10 people the first night, which lead to a second, which lead to a third. This month, we’ll schedule it out for a month. We’ll try to code with a staff level engineer every Thursday night. Join slack.cantoncoders.org if you would like a specific topic covered.
This month’s feature presentation is Sylvia Fronczak as she presents the Transformation Priority Premise in Test Driven Development. We’ll also be hosting our normal lean coffees, and coding every Thursday night with a staff level developer. All event information is at events.cantoncoders.org and join our slack.cantoncoders.org for more details.

Contemporary Development Tools and Practices in the IBM Mainframe Environment About this Event About the Talk Since the late 1980s, much of the world outside of mainframe data centers has ignored the mainframe platform. Conventional wisdom was that it would soon cease to exist. Today, the mainframe is positioned as a viable and cost-effective cloud…
