In January we held an open house session on advanced git and met with a group of experts in and beyond CodeRefinery and looked into what learning material is already available.
And what awesome materials are already out there!

You can find the collection of materials in our blog post: https://coderefinery.org/blog/git-material/

On Nov 28th at 11 CET we will continue the discussion, start connecting the materials as well as start filling the gaps.

๐Ÿ’ป Today, we continue our weekly workshop series on reproducible scientific computing topics!

This session is all about #SocialCoding: open-source, licenses, sharing your code, and building on others' work (yes, even from Stack Overflow and ChatGPT ๐Ÿ‘€).

No Python or Git installations needed today - just you.
