When Technology Becomes Absolute Passion
MSTC conducted the second edition of Winter of Code (WoC 2.0) from Dec'19 to Jan'20. It proved to be a great platform for budding web developers as they could encash the opportunity to learn a new technology from scratch and build a project, utilizing the stuff they had learnt. The event comprised of a variety of emerging tools and technologies ranging from front-end / back-end / full-stack web development to android app development. The participants were guided by experienced student mentors throughout the course of the event.
The 'Introduction to Python' sessions in mid-September 2019, were absolutely lit! Python, being a popular language and being utilizable in almost every aspect of programming, gave us a chance to host informative and participant-engaging sessions. Our team was glad to have a passionate and responsive audience to share knowledge with. The first session covered the basics of python and its potential usage in programming and development while the second threw light on its applications in data science.
MSTC, DA-IICT was a proud collaborator for DevFest Gandhinagar 2019, organized primarily by GDG Gandhinagar. It brought together the renowned experts in technologies such as Android, Web and Cloud for sessions, workshops and showcases. We managed the technicalities at the venue to make what many describe as the 'Best Tech Conference in Gandhinagar', a great success. The seasoned developers and speakers provided knowledgeable insights to the tech-enthusiasts for whom, the event turned out to be an enriching experience.
We conducted a one-day workshop on Angular, the JavaScript based framework. It was a session taken by Mr. Jinal Shah, a Microsoft MVP (Most Valuable Professional). Its aim was to make the attendees aware of and get along with the advanced aspects of web development using Angular. It witnessed a presence of intermediate-level Angular developers who opened their way to become more familiar with the framework and could eventually master it.
We organized a one-day workshop on the open-source UI software development kit, Flutter. The GDG Gandhinagar Lead, Mr. Parth Jansari was invited as the speaker. The beginner-friendly event covered the basics of Dart, the programming language followed by hands-on-session so that all the participants could get a clear understanding about the concepts learned.
