Getting Involved

NOTE: For the time being, all meetups and hack nights are being held virtually. For more information about our online events, please visit the Tulsa WebDevs Meetup page.

1. Join the Google Groups Mailing List

2. Join Slack

• Slack is an online meeting space. Learn more here!

3. Join the Code for Tulsa Meetup and join us at meetings

• How Hack Nights Work First Tuesday of every month - Hack nights are an informal event where members of the community can come to hack around and collaborate on any interesting projects. Check in at the front desk and we'll have people here to help you get started.

• How Code for Tulsa Meetups Work Third Monday of every month - During Tulsa Web Devs meetings we break out into a sub-group where Code for Tulsa members currently involved in projects, or looking to start projects, collaborate and catch up.

Looking for Help?

If you have an idea you'd like to pitch to our group, a great place to get the dialogue started is in our mailing list:

1. Introduce yourself! Tell us who you are and what organization you're involved with.

2. Tell us about a project you'd like to see happen:

• Who are the users of the solution you're looking for?
• What is the problem you're trying to solve for your users?
• What, if any, data or information do you need to solve this problem?

Looking to start helping?

• Check out the list of projects that we are working on. If any spark your interest, reach out to the tech lead or product lead for that project.
• Check out the "committee/Civic Tech" section of the Techlahoma Help Wanted board
• If you're not a coder, but are still interested in helping out, there are a couple areas we could really use some help on:
  • Adding to our blog/website: https://codefortulsa.org/ - articles about projects we're working on, press we've received locally and nationally, updates on meetings and how to get involved, etc.
  • Outreach to organizations we would want to meet with / present to. You don't need to make the presentations (but if you want to, we can supply you with a slide deck and talking points), but we would love for someone to help keep in touch with community organizations such as Workforce Tulsa, Coding Dojo, RailsBridge, DjangoGirls, 36°N, the Tulsa Library, etc. about opportunities where we could present about who we are, what we do, etc.
