Code a Simple Mobile App (2020-12-10)

This free workshop for high school and community college staff and students will walk participants through the creation of a cross-platform app in the form of a scavenger hunt. This app could be used to motivate students to find items of interest in a physical location (a nearby park) or online site (a museum website).

The app will be based on the free, versatile React Native framework used by Facebook, Instagram, and other prominent companies. Participants will learn the basics of React Native's HTML-like tags, customize them to fit their objective, and test-drive this new app on their own Android or iOS device.
