Tech Academy
Visual Coding Summer Tech Camp

Cloud & Mobile App Design

Discover how today’s apps and games are built in the cloud! In this hands-on class, students will explore the world of cloud-based development while learning how coding powers modern games. Together, we will walk through building a sample project from start to finish, then students will design and develop a game of their own. Along the way, they will explore coding concepts such as variables, events, conditions, and functions while experimenting with design choices. The camp combines creativity with technology to introduce web-based cloud frameworks in an accessible way. Bring a USB on the last day to save your games.
