Cookbook

Want to plan a RailsBridge workshop? AWESOME!

There are a lot of different ways to organize a workshop, but if you've got the Minimum Viable Workshop, you'll have a great time. There are way more people in the world who are excited to teach and learn Rails and Ruby than you know.

The Workshop Planning Timeline is a good place to start; it's divided into sections before, during, and after the workshop. There are a lot of individual tasks, so we recommend organizing in a team.

This cookbook was originally written for people organizing workshops in San Francisco, so there are some places where we incorrectly assume where you are planning a workshop. Please help us by updating those sections, or leaving comments like (SF-only) if there are places where we say things that are only applicable in SF.

We have a lot of past organizers who can help you figure out what to do. Email [email protected] and we'll introduce you to an organizing mentor!
