If Codegarden is a cult, it is the most open and friendly cult where we would love to have as many people onboard! ... wait, this still makes it still sound like a cult 👀
Joking aside, even if you are not a person who is comfortable approaching others and mingle in, everyone will be making sure you will be respected for that and certainly will still feel included. There might be a bit too many people trying to say hi and talk to you, but it's also totally fine to do things as you please. Go all in, or enjoy the talks and watch the social stuff from a distance, all good 🙂
