如何在您的城市中建立強大的編碼社區-我是如何做到的 (How you can build a strong coding community in your city — and how I did it)

Communities are important. They are the bedrock that glues together shared beliefs, a common passion, and a sense of belonging. This helps everyone work together towards their personal or communal goals.

社區很重要。它們是將共同的信念，共同的激情和歸屬感凝聚在一起的基石。這可以幫助每個人共同努力實現自己的個人或公共目標。

I’ve been the organizer of freeCodeCamp Sacramento for over a year now, and I’ve learned a great deal about how to run a community. I’ve met people from other study groups, and we often exchange tips for how to run a community. The topic often comes up because I think people genuinely want to organize their own communities.

一年多以來，我一直是freeCodeCamp Sacramento的組織者，并且我已經學到了很多有關如何管理社區的知識。我見過其他學習小組的人，我們經常交流有關如何運營社區的技巧。之所以經常出現這個話題，是因為我認為人們確實希望組織自己的社區。

In this article, I’ll share some tips for running a community. I’ll elaborate on some of the values, techniques, leadership, and organization skills I’ve learned along the way. I’ve organized these into 10 tips that I think you’ll find actionable and memorable.

在本文中，我將分享一些運行社區的技巧。我將詳細介紹我在此過程中學到的一些價值觀，技術，領導能力和組織技能。我已將這些內容整理為10條提示，我認為您會發現這些建議可行且令人難忘。

I encourage people to bring headphones or earphones to the events. This is because I want people to get some work done in the first hour of the event. Because the community is together, it’s really easy to get distracted by the conversations happening around them.

我鼓勵人們帶耳機或耳機參加活動。這是因為我希望人們在活動的第一個小時完成一些工作。因為社區在一起，所以很容易因周圍的話題而分心。

To help people progress in their coding goals, I try to enforce a policy where people are encouraged to work on their code for one hour during the event.

為了幫助人們實現他們的編碼目標，我嘗試執行一項政策，鼓勵人們在活動期間編寫代碼一小時。

This is not limited to freeCodeCamp material. People can work on Java, help someone with their code, watch video tutorials, or whatever.

這不限于freeCodeCamp材料。人們可以使用Java進行工作，使用代碼幫助某人，觀看視頻教程等。

Encouraging people to be productive helps them build their existing skill set so that they can become better developers. I want everyone to have a chance to work toward their goals.

鼓勵人們提高工作效率可以幫助他們建立現有的技能，從而可以成為更好的開發人員。我希望每個人都有機會朝著自己的目標努力。

The second part about these events is that they allow time for social coding or networking. Many developers will tell you that knowing how to program will land you a job, but soft skills are equally important.

關于這些事件的第二部分是，它們為社交編碼或網絡騰出了時間。許多開發人員會告訴您，知道如何編程會找到您的工作，但是軟技能也同樣重要。

For the quiet types, I often try to engage them in conversations. Sometimes in the middle of a conversation with another person, I will find an opportunity to ask the the quiet person, “What is your opinion on this [insert subject]?” I know the person is paying attention, but doesn’t necessarily want to speak up. I may be putting people on the spot, but I want to let them know that their opinions are valued in my community.

對于安靜的人，我經常嘗試讓他們參與對話。有時，在與另一個人交談的過程中，我會發現一個機會問安靜的人，“您對此[插入主題]有何看法？” 我知道這個人正在注意，但不一定要大聲說出來。我可能會把人們當場，但我想讓他們知道他們的意見在我的社區中很有價值。

提示2：請記住會員的名字 (Tip #2: Try to remember the names of your members)

If there is one important lesson to learn from this, it is to try to remember the name of the individuals who attend your study group. This will make them feel valued because you’ve taken the time to learn their name and commit it to memory.

如果要從中學習一個重要的課程，那就是要記住參加您的學習小組的個人的名字。這會讓他們感到很有價值，因為您已經花了一些時間來學習他們的名字并將其提交到記憶中。

Making people feel important by remembering their name is a key concept from Dale Carnegie’s book “How to Win Friends and Influence People.” This is how I conduct myself in front of others.

戴爾·卡耐基(Dale Carnegie)的著作“ 如何贏得朋友并影響人們。 這就是我在別人面前表現自己的方式。

If you’re not good at remembering names, try to employ techniques like repeating people’s name back to them slowly or repeating their name in your head. Or find facial features that defines them and associate them with their name. If you need more suggestions, here is a great article that provides tips on how to remember people’s name.

如果您不擅長記住姓名，請嘗試采用一些技術，例如慢慢將人們的名字重復給他們，或者在腦海中重復他們的名字。或找到定義它們的面部特征并將其與名稱關聯。如果您需要更多建議，這是一篇很棒的文章，其中提供了有關如何記住人的名字的提示。

提示3：用溫暖的笑容迎接所有人 (Tip #3: Greet everyone with a warm smile)

First impressions are important and create a lasting affect. To set the tone for my community, I usually stand near the front door when people enter and greet them as they come in.

第一印象很重要，并且會產生持久的影響。為了給我的社區定下基調，我通常會在人們進入時迎接他們時，站在前門附近。

This is my golden opportunity to get to know the individuals, learn why they are attending the event and the goals they want to achieve, and what they are working on.

這是我認識個人，了解他們為什么參加活動，他們想要實現的目標以及他們正在做什么的絕妙機會。

By being receptive to newcomers, I let them know that we are a friendly community and that we are here for their needs.

通過接受新來者，我讓他們知道我們是一個友好的社區，我們在這里滿足他們的需求。

By learning a few facts about them, I can do one of the following things: direct them to another camper who can pair up with them to do some pair programming, introduce them to someone who can help them complete a specific challenge with which they are having trouble, or even just show them to an available seat in the venue.

通過了解有關它們的一些事實，我可以執行以下操作之一：將它們定向到另一個可以與它們配對以進行配對編程的露營者，向他們介紹可以幫助他們完成特定挑戰的人遇到麻煩，甚至只是將他們帶到場地的可用座位上。

提示4：讓所有人聚在一起 (Tip #4: Try to keep everyone together)

A community is not a community if people feel like they don’t belong. Another important aspect of a community is togetherness. When arranging an event, look for a venue with big tables or sections that can seat everyone together.

如果人們覺得自己不屬于社區，那么社區就不是社區。社區的另一個重要方面是團結。安排活動時，請尋找一個可以擺放所有人的大型桌子或大板塊的場地。

By having everyone near each other, everyone feels like they belong to a community. Campers can work alongside each other, engage in conversations about technology, and help each other pass challenges or tackle them together.

通過使每個人彼此靠近，每個人都感覺自己屬于一個社區。營員可以相互合作，進行有關技術的對話，互相幫助克服挑戰或共同應對挑戰。

I like coffee shops over venues that have classroom-like settings. Coffee shops are informal and make people feel more comfortable about joining conversations. People are seated close to one another, so they may peek at someone else’s screen and ask, “Hey, what are you working on?”

我喜歡咖啡店，而不喜歡教室般布置的場所。咖啡廳是非正式的，使人們對加入對話更加自在。人們坐在彼此附近，所以他們可以窺視別人的屏幕，然后問：“嘿，您在做什么？”

The environment is organic and gives members an opportunity to develop friendships.

環境是有機的，使成員有機會發展友誼。

提示5：至少提前兩周安排活動 (Tip #5: Schedule events at least two weeks in advance)

I’ve seen too often organizers wait until the last minute to announce an event. And they usually get only a few attendees.

我已經看到組織者經常等到最后一分鐘才宣布一個事件。他們通常只有少數與會者。

You want to aim for maximum participation, and you won’t get that if you give people less than a week’s notice.

您希望爭取最大程度的參與，而如果給人們的通知少于一周，您將無法實現。

If you can’t schedule events two weeks in advance, then try to schedule an event as far in advance as possible.

如果您不能提前兩周安排活動，請嘗試盡可能提前安排活動。

提示6：使用標志讓別人知道你是誰，你在哪里 (Tip #6: Use a sign to let people know who you are and where you are)

When I first started organizing events, I didn’t use any visual displays to let newcomers know who and where we were in the venue. People would walk through the door, look around like a lost child, and have to play the guessing game by asking strangers, “Is this [insert event name]?”

當我第一次開始組織活動時，我沒有使用任何視覺顯示來讓新來者知道我們在場內的人和位置。人們會走進門，像個迷路的孩子一樣環顧四周，不得不通過問陌生人來玩猜謎游戲，“這是[插入事件名稱]嗎？”

You don’t want to put people in that situation because you would violate tip #2 on my list. And you would make people feel unwelcome if they can’t find you the first time.

您不想讓人們處于這種情況，因為您會違反我名單上的提示2。如果他們第一次找不到你，就會使人們感到不受歡迎。

When you put up a sign, you’re openly advertising as well. There have been times where I had people from outside the group come and ask me what the group is about. Strangers will be curious and it might be an opportunity to get new members. You never know who you’ll meet.

當您張貼標語時，您也在公開廣告。有時候，我有小組以外的人來問我小組的內容。陌生人會很好奇，這可能是獲得新成員的機會。你永遠都不知道會見誰。

提示7：與組織活動保持一致 (Tip #7: Be consistent with organizing events)

Try to organize at least one event each month. This will show your members that they are participating in an active community.

嘗試每月至少組織一次活動。這將向您的成員表明他們正在參加一個活躍的社區。

Scheduling the right number of events is something you have to think about.

安排正確數量的事件是您必須考慮的事情。

Do you want to do one every Tuesday? The first Friday of the month? Every Saturday morning? These are things you have to consider.

您要每個星期二做一次嗎？一個月的第一個星期五？每個星期六早上？這些是您必須考慮的事情。

I want to be flexible, so I schedule events that are convenient for me.

我想保持靈活性，因此我安排對我來說很方便的活動。

Early in my organizing days, one time I scheduled a event every week for two months straight, and I felt burnt out. That was the exact opposite of how I wanted to feel, so I dialed it back.

在組織初期，有一次我每周計劃一次活動，連續兩個月，但我感到筋疲力盡。那與我想要的感覺正好相反，所以我撥回了電話。

Now I schedule three events a month, but they all differ from one another. Two are “coffee and coding” events, and one is either a “talk, workshop, or hack night”.

現在，我每月安排三個事件，但是它們彼此之間是不同的。兩個是“咖啡和編碼”事件，一個是“談話，研討會或黑客之夜”。

One of the two “coffee and coding” events is on a Friday night for people who can make it out on a week night. But for those who have families and have only the weekends free, I schedule an event on Saturday mornings.

兩個“咖啡和編碼”活動之一是在周五晚上，適合那些可以在一個星期晚上進行的活動。但是對于那些有家人但只有周末免費的人，我將在星期六早上安排一個活動。

I’m trying to target two different audiences by employing this strategy.

我正在嘗試通過采用這種策略來針對兩個不同的受眾。

And for my “talks, workshops, or hack nights”, I often schedule it on Saturdays. They last anywhere from three hours to seven hours, depending on the topic.

在我的“演講，研討會或黑客之夜”中，我通常將其安排在星期六。根據主題的不同，它們的持續時間從三個小時到七個小時不等。

提示8：發揮創意，成為您所在地區的利基市場 (Tip #8: Be creative and be a niche in your area)

There are meetups in my area that cover intermediate to advanced topics. I felt lost the few times I visited them when I was the new guy learning how to code. Nothing made sense at the time.

我所在的區域有一些聚會，涵蓋了中高級主題。當我還是新手學習編碼時，我幾次拜訪他們時感到迷茫。當時沒有任何意義。

So when I finally started thinking like a community leader, I asked myself, “What is this market lacking?”

因此，當我終于開始像社區領袖一樣思考時，我問自己：“這個市場缺乏什么？”

And that’s how I started to envision what freeCodeCamp Sacramento could be like — a friendly and fun community for all ages who want to learn how to code. As well, it helps those who don’t know how to code to become self-sufficient so that they can learn on their own.

這就是我開始設想freeCodeCamp Sacramento可能是什么樣的人-一個適合所有想學習編碼的年齡段的友好而有趣的社區。同樣，它可以幫助那些不知道如何編碼的人變得自給自足，以便他們可以自己學習。

Be the niche that no one else is doing.

成為其他人沒有做的利基市場。

Most of my talking events are tailored to introductory topics like “Intro to Sass,” “Web Accessibility,” “Graduating from Codepen.io,” and in other areas that I think new developers could use help.

我的大部分演講活動都是針對介紹性主題而定制的，例如“ Sass入門”，“ Web可訪問性 ”，“ 從Codepen.io畢業 ”，以及其他我認為新開發人員可以使用幫助的領域。

You want to think outside of the box. This year I ran my first Annual freeCodeCamp Sacramento BBQ. We got away from coding and ate some amazing homemade BBQ instead.

您想跳出框框思考。今年，我運行了我的第一個年度freeCodeCamp薩克拉曼多燒烤。我們擺脫了編碼，轉而吃了一些很棒的自制燒烤。

New events breathe life into your community and keeps things fun and refreshing. Think of new ways to approach your audience and make them excited about upcoming events.

新事件為您的社區注入了生命，并使事情變得有趣而令人耳目一新。想辦法吸引觀眾，并使他們對即將發生的事件感到興奮。

提示＃9：如果可能，請務必早起，待到很晚 (Tip #9: Always be early and stay late, if possible)

This is something I learned in the military, but it may not be feasible for everyone. I make it a habit to arrive as early as possible to prepare for events.

這是我在軍事上學到的，但對于每個人來說可能都不可行。我養成早點準備活動的習慣。

I usually call the venue in advance to let them know that I’m coming and the number of people attending. Sometimes the venue reserves an area for us, but often times they will not, such as it goes with coffee shops.

我通常會提前打電話給場地，讓他們知道我要來了和參加人數。有時，場地為我們保留了一塊區域，但很多時候卻沒有，例如咖啡廳。

Arrive an hour early, scout the place, and start sectioning off an area for your members by using signs or settling into the area with your belongings.

提早一個小時到達，搜索該地點，然后開始使用標牌或隨身攜帶物品進入該區域為您的成員劃分一個區域。

When people start to show up, direct them to where you want them to sit and then take your position by the front door to greet people.

當人們開始露面時，將他們引導到您想讓他們坐在那里的位置，然后在前門旁采取您的位置向人們打招呼。

Be early and be consistent about being early to give the impression that you take these events seriously. People will perceive you as the go-to person if anyone has questions.

提早行動并保持一致，以給人以為您認真對待這些事件。如果有人有疑問，人們會認為您是首選。

If you’re not there, you might create confusion among the new people in your group. I’ve been to a meetup where the organizer was consistently late and people spoke poorly about the organizer.

如果您不在那里，則可能會在小組中的新成員之間造成混亂。我去過一次聚會，組織者一直很晚，人們對組織者的評價很差。

You don’t want to give anyone an excuse to criticize you for something that is preventable, because it can affect everyone in your community.

您不想給任何借口批評您可以預防的事情，因為它會影響您社區中的每個人。

As for staying late, often I try to stay as long as I can. Even though I schedule the events to be about two hours long, there have been many times when attendees will stay longer than that.

至于熬夜，我經常會嘗試盡可能地熬夜。即使我將活動安排為大約兩個小時，但很多時候與會者的停留時間都將超過此時間。

As the event organizer, if I have time, I may hang out for a few extra hours if I can, but other members can leave at the scheduled time because that is expected of them.

作為活動的組織者，如果可以的話，我可以多花幾個小時，但其他成員可以在預定的時間離開，因為這是他們的期望。

提示10：在線吸引觀眾 (Tip #10: Engage your audience online)

It is especially important to engage your online members. freeCodeCamp does a great job of driving new members to your online community.

吸引在線會員尤為重要。 freeCodeCamp在將新成員吸引到您的在線社區方面做得很好。

I try to greet new members in our Facebook group with a personal message within a week of them joining. Making them feel welcomed when they join is a great way to open communication with them. This way they can provide a quick introduction about themselves. You can also answer their questions and invite them out to your events.

在加入后的一周內，我會嘗試通過個人消息向我們的Facebook組中的新成員打招呼。讓他們在加入時受到歡迎是與他們進行開放交流的好方法。這樣，他們可以提供有關自己的快速介紹。您還可以回答他們的問題，并邀請他們參加您的活動。

I also post every local event that is happening in our area for the week. This might include other meetups like Ruby coding, Bitcoin and blockchain, entrepreneurship, WordPress, and many more relatable technology topics. I usually break it down by day and provide a link to the meetup page of each group.

我還發布了本周在我們地區發生的所有本地事件。這可能包括其他聚會，例如Ruby編碼，比特幣和區塊鏈，企業家精神，WordPress，以及更多相關技術主題。我通常按??天細分，并提供指向每個小組的聚會頁面的鏈接。

At the end of the day, I am advocating for technology. I try not to restrict my support to just my group. I am biased about my community, but I want to serve beyond my community in different ways.

歸根結底，我提倡技術。我盡量不只將支持僅限于我的小組。我對自己的社區有偏見，但我想以不同的方式在社區之外服務。

Also, I frequently post articles, tutorials, and other good resources for the community to consume. Sharing is caring.

另外，我經常發布文章，教程和其他有用的資源，以供社區使用。分享是關懷。

Lastly, I ask people what they want to see from the community. I run a poll to gather suggestions from our members about the topics they want to hear. I even ask members what they accomplished during that week.

最后，我問人們他們想從社區中看到什么。我進行了一項民意調查，以收集我們成員關于他們想聽的話題的建議。我什至問成員那一周他們取得了什么成就。

These are just some of the strategies I use to engage my online community so that it doesn’t feel stale. Remember to be creative.

這些只是我用來吸引在線社區的一些策略，因此不會感到陳舊。記住要有創造力。

I have many more ways I want to engage and grow my community. I have a bigger vision for my community, and I would love to see it materialize in the future. But for now, this is as much as I can do because we are run by volunteers. Some days I spend about 25% of my day thinking about what I can do to improve my community. Sometimes it feels like a part-time job.

我還有很多其他方式可以吸引和發展我的社區。我對我的社區有一個更大的愿景，我很希望看到它在將來成為現實。但是就目前而言，這是我所能做的，因為我們由志愿者經營。有時候，我會花費大約25％的時間思考如何做才能改善自己的社區。有時感覺像是一份兼職工作。

So if you’re willing to build your community and see it grow, be prepared to put in your best effort!

因此，如果您愿意建立自己的社區并看到它的成長，請準備盡最大努力！
