ClojureBridge overview

Fun, free and friendly workshops for those identifying as woman or non-binary gender.

Every student is paired with a coach who will support them through the workshop, helping them to relate to the concepts covered and coaching them in the art of coding.

We teach students Clojure, a functional programming language that is great for beginners and experienced developers alike. Find out why Clojure is a great language to learn.

Students can choose their own path in learning Clojure and we have put together content at different experience levels of experience.
