We'd love to see many of you out there, so come hang out with your local development community and add some new skills to the repertoire.
Pizza will be served at 6 pm.

Discount on the Android Nanodegree upon course completion. Opportunity to join Google Launchpad with completed app, pending app quality
Course Prerequisites and Requirements
"If you are new to programming and don’t know where to start, then this is the course for you!
We will use Android Studio to build our apps, so you should have access to a computer that can run Android Studio in order to follow along (see Android Studio’s System Requirements for details). Don’t worry, you do not need to install Android Studio in advance – we will provide detailed installation instructions as part of the course.
Access to an Android device is helpful, but not at all required.
Now, in case you have some programming experience, parts of this course may be too slow for you — you should feel free to skip those sections.
Finally, the most important prerequisite is a willingness to learn new things, and belief that you can do this!
See the Technology Requirements for using Udacity."
Please bring
A computer that satisfies these system requirements
A computer charger
Android device (optional, you can use an Android emulator if needed)
USB cable to connect the device to their computer
Headphones (to watch videos in the classroom)
You DO NOT need to install anything in advance! =)
