Our Vision

Every woman who runs a business, manages accounts, or works in operations should have access to powerful open-source tools and the confidence to use them. Frappe Girls exists to make that practical, visible, and community-supported.

How it works

The workshop journey is simple: apply, build, and continue learning through the wider community.

01

Apply

Participants apply for a free workshop. No prior programming experience is required, only curiosity and a laptop.

02

Build

In one practical workshop day, participants learn the basics of Frappe and ERPNext, create records, and understand live workflows with coach support.

03

Grow

After the workshop, learners continue through future events, contribution paths, the Frappe tutorial, and the wider coaching and organizer community.
