MoMath x Code4NYC
Web Development Workshop 4

August 2026

​Our four-week Web Development workshop series with MoMath came to an end this week. In our final session, students learned how to use classes and IDs to style different elements of their webpages. We ended the workshop with a gallery walk, giving everyone a chance to look at each other's work over the past four weeks.

​

Thank you to MoMath for giving us the opportunity to teach this series and to all of the students who joined us in this workshop series. It was great seeing their websites come together from the first session to the final gallery walk, and we hope they had as much fun creating them as we did teaching!
