Event Details

 

A huge thank you to Mike Koss and StartPad for putting this on. A tremendous value, and thanks to Mike, FREE for Startup Weekend attendees! This will be one of two events taking place the weekend before Startup Weekend in an effort to help expand the educational opportunities that Startup Weekend can provide. 

Be sure to check out the Ruby on Rails Bootcamp the day after at StartPad too!

Of course, make sure to buy your tickets for the main event on March 19th - 21st. 

-----------------------

We've found that teams can waste a lot of their precious weekend time setting up their development environment at Startup Weekend.  In this session, we hope to get you prepared to hit the ground running.  For participants that would like to build their sites using Google's scalable App Engine service, this introductory session will cover:

  1. App Engine strengths and weaknesses - what can I build with App Engine?
  2. Installing and configuring source control to simplify team interaction (Subversion, Git, or Mercurial)
  3. Intro to Python
  4. Installing the App Engine development environment
  5. WebApp on App Engine - Simple Hello, World
  6. Deploying to appspot.com
  7. Intro to Django on App Engine
    1. Data Models
    2. Views
    3. URL design
    4. Templates
    5. A simple Django starter application template
  8. Hosting your site on your own domain

What to bring:

  1. Laptop (Windows or Mac)
  2. Participants will receive a list of installation links before the session to save some time in configuring their machines.
  3. You can bring a sack lunch or take a break with us to eat at one of several local lunch spots.
