This is my "project" from the cyberwizard institute. - I will be conducting a super newbie tutorial on making command line tools in node. - we'll analyze data from Open Oakland - more specifically domestic violence in Oakland [image: Learn how this picture relates to Set Theory Attribution: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Prague_Praha_2014_Holmstad_flott_Mu…] <https://sudoroom.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/320px-Prague_Praha_2014_Holmstad_flott_Mucha_Alfons_Alphonse_-_8.jpg> https://github.com/womenwhocodeoakland/oakland-data-with-node-js I'll be doing a special screenshare with comments and drawings. - This is a super-newbie screenshare on how to set up a node.js command-line tool to parse data on domestic violence in Oakland using Open Data. - We'll be going over basic node concepts, parsing JSON - Best of all, by the end everyone will hopefully understand how to avoid grunt work and copy and paste in Excel. *Too many smart women with potential are trapped in dead end pink collar clerical, accounting and marketing jobs even though they are probably smart enough to learn to code and make the world a better place. Even in non-profit volunteer organizations women tend to do a lot of clerical grunt work instead of having fun and being creators so this will hopefully tip the balance!* Women Who Code Oakland Node.js Tutorial This is a basic tutorial on Node.js using the command line. Benefits: - You can make a basic "networked" app - You can avoid doing clerical gruntwork and using horrible Excel Macros written by a javascript newbie for Women Who Code Oakland / Women Who Code East Bay http://www.meetup.com/Women-Who-Code-East-Bay/ *Women dominate clerical, lower-paid clerical jobs like entry level accounting and secretarial work or lower-level marketing positions. They live their lives in Excel sheets. Enabling them to learn basic coding and taking advantage of their intelligence and potential will help make the world a better place.* ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
