Find a mentor-platform: A matchmaking platform where people entering the tech workspace can find mentors already established in the field.
This project has been started in the Rails Girls Copenhagen learners group. In 2019 we got together as a group and spent some time talking about what members of the community need and what problem they would like to solve together with this project. The result was the Mentor-Mentee App!
- To build a service connecting newcomers to the field with mentors that can help them grow technically and professionally.
- To be a beginner-friendly project that offers its contributors a welcoming and encouraging setting to advance their skills and learn new technologies.
Contributors have formed three separate groups:
- Frontend (React)
- Backend (Ruby on Rails)
- Design/Project Ownership
So far, the groups have laid out a lot of the groundwork, have created a fair amount of issues and set up a very elaborate wiki in our repo. This is a beginner(junior)-friendly project with a established community of contributors and mentors.
We're always happy to invite new contributors, particularly people new to progamming and who belongs to a group that is not already so well-represented in tech. We also very enthusiastically welcome more seasoned folks who wants to mentor and help our beginner-contributors out. Check out our issues to see which tasks we have ahead. Feel free to join our Rails Girls cph slack channel for a social space to talk about the project and raise any questions you may have.
