Starting Points

Help your attendees with starting points in different programming languages:

• Starting Points by Corey Haines
• Corey Haines’ Github repo with Gherkin for Game of Life: Since the Cucumber framework that parses Gherkin can be found for several languages, it’s useful for GOL in any of those languages.
• Kata Bootstraps by Softwerkskammer Berlin
• Presets by Remote Global Day of the Coderetreat Spain

Environment

They can use an online coding environment like Cyber-Dojo. It offers 30 different languages, each with at least one testing framework (most languages have multiple frameworks) all wired up and ready to go: no downloading, installing, or configuring, etc.
