Why we love it π Self-publishing is the ultimate form of DIY maker culture! The Princeton Public Library is hosting the 3rd Annual “Princeton ZineFest,” a massive celebration featuring over 40 local zine-makers, comic artists, and creatives. In addition to browsing the marketplace, there will be a dedicated space for attendees of all ages to drop in and create their own handmade publications. We absolutely love ZineFest because making a zine requires organizing information, text, and images onto a physical page in a way that is engaging and easy to read!
How this event aligns with iCode Princeton πβοΈ Designing a physical zine is the exact foundation of Front-End Web Development!
-
Front-End Layout (HTML/CSS): When you fold a piece of paper and decide where the title goes and where the images sit, you are doing layout design! In our Web Development Tracks, we teach kids how to use HTML and CSS to build these exact same layouts digitally, organizing web pages so they look crisp and professional.
-
User Interface (UI) Design: A zine needs to be easy to flip through and read. In software engineering, this is called UI (User Interface) design. We teach our students how to guide a user’s eye naturally across a screen, ensuring that their games, apps, and websites are intuitive to navigate!
Join the fun, then keep the momentum going at iCode ππ Publish your ideas at the library, then bring that world-class creativity to iCode Princeton where we teach you how to build the website!
