Overview
Imagine a day writing code just for the love of writing it beautifully! A day without the office pressures of "getting things done" … a day just focused on practicing the art of writing clean, lean, modular and test driven code… Welcome to the Global Day of Coderetreat, an annual global event where passionate programmers come together to hone their skills.
Last year's GDCR had more than 130 events in more than 100 cities with more than 2000 developers involved! GDCR 2019 will be held on 16th November 2019 across many cities around the world… and will involve many many programmers world wide. This is the 10th anniversary of Coderetreat. We expect this year's event to be huge and very memorable.
