Introduction
This is a great opportunity to experience a Code Retreat in ABAP and to expand your ABAP-skills. Spend the day with ABAP-colleagues, connect with your peers, learn from each other, share experiences and be inspired by the great community.
Just bring your own laptop. We provide you an ABAP stack and access to the system for the event-day.
In addition, we offer lunch, snacks and soft drinks for free!
See you in the beautiful city of Passau!
What is a Code Retreat?
A CodeRetreat is a day-long, intensive practice event, focusing on the fundamentals of software development and design. This FREE community-driven event format gives you the opportunity to practice TDD, Clean Code and refactoring for a whole day. This isn’t a conference! Rules are totally different, attendees take actively part in the coding experience: act a lot, listen very little.
You can find more information about the code retreat format movement on the Code Retreat website and more about the ABAP Code Retreat format on the ABAP Code Retreat SCN wiki site.
