" summary

A grassroots program built from a one-day workshop of 20-ish friends in Helsinki grows into a curriculum used in 230 cities worldwide, hosted by volunteers who edit the guides on GitHub and run local events with Rails and Ruby tools. Organizers run a paid global Summer of Code with Travis CI mentorship, the workshops prioritize building a visible Rails scaffold in a day, teach debugging habits (ask “why”), and emphasize small problems stacked into larger projects.
