The Inaugural SF Cohort: Capstone Wrap-Up

Time sure does fly! We can't believe we've already celebrated the graduation of our very first San Francisco cohort. The Showcase took place on a Thursday night at The Box in San Francisco, and everyone at ACLTC is so proud of all the hard work and accomplishments our developers demonstrated to the guests throughout the event.

cheers!

To create their Capstone apps, the developers used technologies such as Ruby on Rails on the backend and JavaScript and Angular on the frontend, along with a variety of libraries and APIs to add features such as map integration, text messaging, browser extensions, and music streaming.

Here's a recap of the awesome Capstone projects our developers presented at the Showcase.
