"Learn to Code" ~ a one-day workshop
Event Info
Description
Learn to code and build websites and web apps. From scratch. In a single day. Even if you've never written or seen a line of code before.
Coding is about creativity and expression. It brings mental clarity and logical thinking, and it demystifies the Web.
What people are saying
"Brilliantly informative, fun and useful. This is an ideal course for anyone who wants to learn basic HTML, CSS and Javascript, or anyone who needs a refresher session in any one of these languages."
~ Dan Harris, digital producer at The Times
"I was nervous about learning HTML, CSS and JavaScript because I don't think I have a head for programming and have felt out of my depth when trying to teach myself. But this was the friendliest, most welcoming course I could've hoped for: not at all intimidating.
By the end I really felt I'd achieved something, and not just a basic working knowledge of the three languages, but the beginnings of a proper conceptual understanding of computer programming as a whole."
~ Kate Roberts, user experience designer
