*What is Code for San Jose?*
Code for San Jos is a volunteer organization made up of makers, designers, developers, & subject matter experts who come together to use tech to solve civic problems.
We hold Civic Hack Nights twice a month where members use their skills to make San Jos, & the South Bay, a better place.
Learn more about our current projects (http://www.codeforsanjose.com/docs/projects/).
We are meeting at ActionSpot co-working studio & startup incubator https://www.myactionspot.com/membership.html
Parking: There is a parking lot on the side & behind ActionSpot, as well as street parking all around the space.
We've found it helpful to be clear on what Code for San Jos is, & what it isn't:
*Code for San Jos is:*
a place people gather to work on open-source projects that benefit our community
*Code for San Jos is not:*
an organization that teaches people how to code
always prepared to pair you with a project on day one. That said, it's a good idea to look through the open data (http://www.codeforsanjose.com/docs/data/) available to us & our projects (http://www.codeforsanjose.com/docs/projects/), & start thinking about a project you might find interesting to work on.
*If you are new to Code for San Jos, please:*
