Below are some steps to prep you for the Web Development sessions. If you need help with any of these steps, please contact us before the session. Welcome to Frost STEAM Labs’ Coding Club! Below is the information for your coding sessions. Please ensure that the device that your student plans to use can be set up with the tools below.
Please attempt to use these tools at least two days before your sessions. Remember to sign in to Glitch and Zoom at least 15 minutes prior to your child’s coding session to ensure that there are no issues. Also, please ensure that laptops are charged or plugged in.
