Yup, those are my students – Hackbright’s Frontend Demo Day Recap

Ten weeks ago I wrote this.

Well, yesterday was our final class and we ended with final presentations. Each student presented both a personal project and a group project. And I do not have the exact words to communicate how impressed I was, not only with the final projects, but with what was accomplished by the students in a short period of time.

So, you’ll have to just see for yourself. Below, I’m including links to the both the personal portfolios and group projects, and picture of the demos.
