3	March	Tuesday 18 / 15:00-16:00 UTC +00:00	Hacky Hour	Decode the Code: Hands-on session in which we clean together messy code	Ceci & Corné	Join us for a hands-on session where we tackle messy code together! Before the session, we’ll share a pre-prepared code repository on GitHub so participants can explore it locally. During the session, we’ll split into breakout rooms, where each group will clean and improve the code in their own way. At the end, we’ll come back together to compare approaches and discuss changes. Looking to sharpen your coding and problem-solving skills? This session is for you!	https://github.com/SORTEE/CodeClub/tree/main/20250318_Decode-The-Code
4	April	Tuesday 15 / 08:00-09:00 UTC +00:00	Training session	Introduction to Reproducible Coding Environments	Ceci & Corné	In this session, we will explore how to make your R scripts easier to rerun, share and understand. We will cover the basics of reproducibility and how to keep versions consistent across setups and over time. The goal isn't perfection, it's about building small and sustainable habits to make your work more reliable!	https://cecibaldoni.quarto.pub/introduction-to-reproducible-coding-environment/#/title-slide
5	May	Tuesday 20 / 08:00-09:00 UTC +00:00	Hacky Hour	From notebook to paper: learn how to structure computational notebooks	Ceci, Corné, Saoirse	Join us for this month’s Code Club: the second part of our Quarto series! In this session, we’ll explore how to turn your computational analysis into a structured, reproducible manuscript using Quarto and RStudio. You’ll learn how to organize your project, combine code and narrative, manage citations, and collaborate effectively. We’ll start with a quick hands-on Markdown refresher, then walk through a real Quarto-based paper, highlighting best practices and common pitfalls. Perfect for anyone looking to streamline their research writing process!	https://github.com/SORTEE/CodeClub/tree/main/20250512_notebook-to-paper
