 te your attendance in addition to RSVP'ing on Meetup.**\n\n**It's time for
  Global Day of CodeRetreat again!**\n\nCoderetreats are intensive practice
  events\, focusing on the fundamentals of software development and design.
  By providing developers the opportunity to take part in focused practice\
 , away from the pressures of "getting things done\," the Coderetreat forma
 t has proven itself to be a highly effective means of learning and nurturi
 ng software development skills.\n\nHow does it work? We'll implement in pa
 irs or trios a relatively easy programming problem\, but introduce constra
 ints in each new 45-minute session. These constraints will teach us more a
 bout test-driven development\, collaboration skills\, designing for mainta
 inable software\, and working within the challenging limitations of a part
 icular environment. Our seasoned facilitators have been conducting CR for 
 more than a decade— C&S has been hosting Global Day of Coderetreat in Pi
 ttsburgh for several years!\n\nWe ask you to have the following up set up 
 before the event:\n\n* Join #coderetreat on [C&S Slack](https://codeandsup
 ply.co/chat)\n* Have a coding environment setup for your favorite language
  and be able to run hello world + tests\n* Optionally\, bring a keyboard t
 o save some time when working together\n\n*The event is open to programmer
 s of all skill levels\, but there is an expectation that participants are 
 comfortable working in at least one common programming language.*\n\nWe th
 ank [Focus Retreat Center](https://focusretreatcenter.com/) and [Position 
 Development](https://positiondev.com/) for their financial support for thi
 s event. They're providing food and drinks and helping cover some costs.\n
