Bootcamp CodeanDOT x Space4Build

At Space4Build, a developer-focused community, we’re launching CodeanDOT, a virtual bootcamp in Spanish created for women and centered on the Polkadot ecosystem. :growing_heart:

We’ve noticed the low participation of women developers in the ecosystem, along with the lack of technical content in Spanish. That’s why we designed this online bootcamp to promote deeper knowledge of Polkadot among communities of women in tech. We believe everyone can find their place in Polkadot — and that women can thrive and stand out for their talent.

CodeanDOT consists of 4 sessions, blending theory and practice so participants can experiment with available tools, including

This will help more people learn about Polkadot technology and will surely be a good way to increase the interest of these communities, considering that Decode+Sub0 will be in Buenos Aires, it makes perfect sense to do it for Spanish-speaking people.
