An virtual workshop by Jen Looper

Front-End Foxes are people who identify as women and who want to learn front-end technologies to make websites and mobile apps

Join us in workshop to build a pet-liking web application. By the end of the session you will have learned some basics of web development using Vue.js, a JavaScript framework. We will create an App to identify our favourite dogs and save them to a gallery.

Front-End Foxes is a non-profit charity founded by Jen Looper, a Cloud Developer Advocate Lead at Microsoft.

Our mission is to create workshops to teach technical topics in a cool and fun way to 'foxy people who identify as women'. For more information please visit www.frontendfoxes.org.

What will you need: Just a computer with internet connection and a browser ready to go; we will do the workshop online using codesandbox.io.
