App Dev Summer Program

About the Program

The App Dev Summer Program features fun, engaging workshops on mobile app development using Thunkable, which is a drag-and-drop app builder. In this week-long program, Grade 4-7 coders will plan and prototype their app designs, learn basic coding concepts, code a mobile app, and present and demo their projects on the final day!

Past Program Schedule

The App Dev Summer Program has been running since 2020. We started running the program online from 2020-2021 amid the COVID-19 pandemic and transitioned to an in-person format in 2022-2023. This year marks the fifth year of the App Dev Summer Program!
