Every Wednesday @ Room 261

Learn.

Hack Club is a place where you can come to learn all types of computer science. We keep a record of our upcoming workshops so you know exactly what we will be doing at each meeting. Don't know how to code? No problem! Just show up to a meeting and you will have a handle on anything from python to web development by the end of the day.

Code.

The purpose of Hack Club is to teach you how to code. We take suggestions on topics you would like to explore. To start with, we will focus on web design and the fundamentals of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The rest of the year is up to you! We can cover Artificial Intelligence with Python, SQL databases and brute force attacks, and the concepts of ethical hacking.

Connect.

Hack Club doesn't end at each meeting! Hack Club is an international network of amatuer computer scientists. The main form of communication with Hack Club is our slack, which you can join and ask questions as well as communicate with high school programmers from around the world. Have a question our leaders can't answer? Ask the slack! Want to plan a hackathon? Find co-organizers with our vast community of tech enthusiasts!
