Programming for Non-Programmers Online Workshop - REPLAYS

The Programming for Non-Programmers Series:

Are you a creative or entrepreneur that wishes you could speak tech with your web development team? Maybe you wish you could code a bit yourself? Programming for Non-Programmers is a series of livestreams designed to help non-programmers communicate more efficiently with developers.

Because leading a development team (without being a developer yourself) can sometimes feels like “talking about dancing”, we’ve created an interactive and friendly environment in which to learn the basics. If you're running a tech start-up, it's essential that you familiarize yourself with the fundamentals of web development.

Ultimately knowing how to "talk to the talk" will help you communicate better with developers, and overall just look really cool. Come with questions, and a desire to have fun!

We'll tackle some development principles to get you on the right path. We'll look at questions like, "Front-end vs. Back-end?", "Is UX necessary for my project?", "What is this Javascript function thingy, and why am I passing it strange math equations to it?".

We'll spend about half of the class looking at actual code and writing some basic Javascript, HTML & CSS ourselves.

We'll learn the following:

-What coding languages should I use for my next project?

-Which CMS is right for the job?

-What are the stages of development?

-What deliverables do I need to provide my developer?

-Reading code & basic developing principles to get us started 9 concepts of programming that are the found in every programming language

-Understanding Javascript Variables & Functions Understanding development best-practices to help discern the value of a developer. 

 

There will be a 10 minute intermission in between part 1 and part 2.
