If you're contemplating attending a code school, academy or bootcamp this will be a great opportunity to learn from previous and current students. A handful of panelists from Epicodus and Alchemy Code Lab will join us and they will share with us some of their experiences, challenges both in school and in hunting for jobs.

There will be plenty of Q&A time so get your questions ready so you can make better choices.

We are excited to host our first Meetup at Vacasa in the Pearl Distrcit (Downtown PDX).

More details to come!

Do you use the Django web framework to create web apps but want to do more? Do you want to start creating modern web apps with separate front and back ends? Do you want to make data accessible on the web? Django Rest Framework is a fast yet powerful way to build web APIs on top of Django. We will look at the parts of Django Rest Framework, how to get started and build a complete API quickly, and how to leverage what you might already know about Django to build APIs even faster. Presented by PDX Code Guild instructor Merritt Lawrenson
