For the Love of Code
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, February is an excellent time to focus on things you love, like coding and technology. Reflect on the joy you felt the first time you built something usable or the first time you solved a coding challenge. These moments of joy and success can be a thoughtful reminder of why you chose your career path.
A career in coding can provide you the opportunity to constantly learn and grow as new technologies emerge, engage in creative problem-solving, and in many cases, work on exciting projects. Using your knowledge of coding to build something from scratch is a unique experience that you get to continuously explore. WWCode is a community where you can connect with fellow lovers of code.

Empowering the Next Generation
While you're growing and achieving, you're also paving the way for the next generation of women in tech. On International Day of Women and Girls in Science, February 11, we reflect on the barrier of entry that girls and women face when showing interest in a tech career. Too often, girls do not have access to resources and haven't seen a technologist that looks like them. As a woman in tech, you're already a role model for girls interested in working in the tech industry. You empower girls when you show up as yourself.
