Introduction

Are you interested in learning how to code, but not sure if it's right for you?

Try Coding Evenings is a two-evening program from the Turing School that will expose you to the basics of the Front-End Engineering aspect of computer programming.

Curriculum

​In two evenings, you'll learn the basics of front-end engineering. We'll cover HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

You'll learn how to create, style, and add interactivity to web pages. By the end of the second day, you'll build a game from scratch that runs in the browser.

Throughout the course, you'll also learn about our community and culture, mission and values.

A light dinner will be served.

Takeaways

You'll have an opportunity to show off work that you're proud of. You'll also receive helpful feedback on how to improve your code from our instructors.

After Event

You'll also receive $500 off the cost of your tuition if you're accepted.
