(Updated) — We finally wrapped up the Esturya Summer App Camp, a 5-day code workshop on basic iOS app development with Xcode. It’s our first event under Esturya and we’re happy to have welcomed 9 participants, who are either in high school or entering college this school year!
Day 1 starts with only 7 participants (the others came in the next day due to prior schedule conflicts). Here, our main developer at Esturya, Reggie Cabalo, introduces them to the Xcode UI, the jargons, and the basic lines of code. It’s all lecture for day 1, but the hands-on practice comes in soon!
When you design a website, write a story, or even draw a comic strip, an outline will always be part of the process. Same thing with apps: on Day 2, our participants learned how to make wireframes to see how their ideal app's layout will look like and how it will work.
The participants were eventually divided into two teams with the same goal: build a simple, working quiz game app on Xcode.
There were a few minor setbacks, but so far everything went better than our expectations! We’re looking forward to making everything much better by the second App Camp. Thank you to everyone who joined, shared the news, and supported the Summer App Camp! :-)
