The event aims to provide fun hands-on workshops for beginners through to intermediate level as well as allowing experts to share ideas with others.

Activities planned for the boot camp will include:

  • A drop-in centre for those who have just got their Pi out the box but don’t know what to do next;
  • Workshops on some basic applications for your Pi that you can build in 90 minutes;
  • Advanced workshops to build cool applications involving LEDs and an internet radio;
  • A chance to meet experts and see what advanced applications they have built.

In addition to the above activities, local web agency Simpleweb, will be hosting ‘Rails Girls’ an all-day Ruby on Rails programming workshop aimed at women.

More details are available from the University of Bristol.
