What are we about
What are we about
We are a refugee-oriented inclusive group and our focus is on both coding as a career and the creative side of coding.
Our goal is to help refugees, asylum seekers and people from other marginalised groups progress their career in tech, as well as creating a community where we come together and write code as a creative activity.

We collaborate with @Jordan van den Lamb on ShitRentals platform which gives back the power to the renters by allowing renters to review and check reviews of rental properties. We teach people coding while building ShitRentals so people learn how things are done in the real world.
