Introduction to Mob Programming
"All the brilliant people working on the same thing, at the same time, in the same space, and on the same computer" - Woody Zuill
There is a radically different way of creating software. It works by your entire team deciding to work on only one thing at at time and only on one computer. It seems like the slowest imaginable way of creating software, but I'm here to tell you that the reality is quite different.
During this session you'll learn why mob programming works. And how it makes it possible to deliver a high quality product quickly.
We'll start off with an introduction about the practice of mob programming and how you can get started. Then we'll spend most of the session trying out mob programming for real. As we will come together as a new team and tackle a software problem.
There's no need to bring any equipment, we'll only need one laptop.
Welcome to the first Pair Programming meetup. Everything you need to know is listed below, I hope; any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

The Format:
Every month we will provide two code katas for you to work on with another person. Although we encourage putting your name forward to be randomly allocated a pair, we are happy for you to opt out of this and work with somebody you know.
We will also be providing an expert in a random language / framework every month, should you wish to observe / learn a new skill during one of the kata segments.
