Overview

dev-ada will be mainly run through Discord and Zoom! If you're new to Discord, the most important thing you need to know is that we have two types of channels: text and audio (denoted with a # and 📢, respectively).

To connect to an audio channel, simply click on the channel's name. You have the option to connect with just audio, or additionally turn your camera on, and share your screen as well. We'll be using both audio and text channels for project work, mentoring, and networking during the event.

To rename yourself for the dev-ada server, you can click on the name of the server 'dev-ada' in the top left of the Discord page and click Edit Server Profile. Please use your real first + last name!
