  • The intention is provide an environment for deliberate practice outside of the pressures of work (deadlines, pressure etc)
  • The problem is too big to solve in 45mins, so your focus should be on writing the best possible code in the time
  • A TDD/BDD approach is strongly encouraged
  • At the end of the 45mins, stop working on the problem and delete the code
  • We'll do a quick 5-10 min discussion of learnings, etc between sessions
  • For the next session we'll swap pairs and start again
