====== Meeting Notes: Tue 1st October 2019 (Level 1) ======

Welcome!  This is the notes page for our twice monthly learn-to-code-from-scratch meeting in The Avalon, Kent Road.  The plan is to run something like this every two weeks to get people up and running with basic web development and system admin.

===== What we'll do =====

This meeting is geared towards beginner programmers in PHP ([[Lesson levels|Level 1]]).  We'll take a look at some example code and help you get it running on your server.

Then we'll try to go through the code, explain how it works and how to modify it - the plan is to learn more by experimenting and having the group's collective knowledge guide the lesson on the night.

Feel free to bring any questions you might have about your own projects etc and we'll work through them or try to answer.

Some projects we'll take a look at (either try to get this running yourself before you arrive, or create it on the night):

  * [[The Quiz App]]

  - Knowledge of how to connect to your sever to run commands (using PuTTY or ssh)
