# EuroPython Beginners' Day

On **Saturday 18th July**, we'll be hosting a day to help introduce complete beginners to programming and its applications, which will feature two tracks running in parallel. The events are designed to give you a hands-on introduction to web development or data science in Python under the guidance of experienced mentors.

The day will be held in person at Kapelanka 56, 30-347 Kraków, Poland.

We are running the following workshops:
* **Django Girls (20 places)**: a hands-on workshop teaching the basics of web development.
* **Humble Data (20 places)**: a hands-on workshop teaching the basics of data science.

Both events are free, and you do not need to be registered for EuroPython to attend Beginners' Day.

Please read more about each event below.

## Django Girls

Django Girls is a welcoming, hands-on workshop designed specifically for women and other underrepresented groups with little to no previous programming experience. Throughout this full-day session, participants will build their very own web application using Python and Django, guided by experienced mentors who provide personalized support every step of the way. The workshop follows a carefully designed curriculum that makes web development accessible and fun, creating a supportive environment where beginners can ask questions, experiment, and celebrate their progress together.

This workshop is specifically designed for people with no previous knowledge of Python or web development. During the workshop, attendees will learn:
* How to install Python and use virtual environments
* How to install Python packages
* Python basics like variables, loops, functions, and conditionals
* How to use Django to build a simple web app and deploy it to a live server
* HTML and CSS fundamentals
* Version control with Git and GitHub.

Just bring a laptop, and by the end of the day, you'll have deployed your first web application to the internet!

The Django Girls workshop will **start at 9:00 and end at around 17:00**.

Please apply for Django Girls through the following page.

Experienced mentors will guide you through each step, from setting up your environment to implementing data analysis techniques.

This workshop is also designed for people with no previous knowledge of Python or data science. During the workshop, attendees will learn:
* Python basics like variables, loops, functions, and conditionals
* How to read in data using Python
* How to manipulate and clean data using pandas
* How to visualize data using Matplotlib and Seaborn.

Just bring a laptop, and you'll leave with practical skills to begin your data science journey. You can read more about the event [here](https://humbledata.org/event/europython.html).
