SUMMARY:Peninsula Developers Study Group
DESCRIPTION:New AI tools are dropping every week. Bookmarks are piling up. “To-be-studied” lists are growing faster than we can keep up with. \nSound familiar? \nPeninsula Developers Study Group is a local initiative for students and developers in the Peninsula area who want to stop meaning to learn and start actually doing it—together. \nThere’s no pressure to be an expert\, and no bootcamp intensity. Just a consistent habit\, a room full of curious people\, and the accountability that comes from showing up. \nHow it works:\nWe meet every two weeks on Tuesdays from 6:00–7:30 PM at CNU. Sessions are a mix of focused study and group discussion. \nSession details:\n🕕 Study time: 6:05 PM – 7:05 PM\n🤝 Networking time: 7:05 PM – 7:30 PM\n📍 Location: Christopher Newport University (Luter 170)\n🔁 Frequency: Bi-weekly (Tuesdays)\n💬 Join Slack: Fill Google Form \nThings to bring: \n\nLaptop\nEarphones/headphones\n\nRoadmap (optional structure we’re following): \n\nAI Fluency + Claude 101 (start here)\nBuilding with the Claude API\nIntro to MCP + MCP Advanced\nClaude Code in Action + Coursera module\nPractice questions + scenario walkthroughs\nAnti-patterns review\n\nBased on: “The Claude Certified Architect is Here!” \nYou are welcome to study on anything else too. The goal is the habit\, not the syllabus.
