Club Journey (5 feb 2015- 5 f3b 2016)

Can u believe what all the club has gained in a span of not more than a year..I would rather call it an amazingly stupendous whole year!!

What the team dreamed of achieving in the salad days of the club has now been attained to a very great amplitude. On 5th February 2015 no one in our team thought that we would be such a success. The most astonishing being  the crown of 'Club of the month' which in my opinion is not a cup of tea for everyone.

This startup year for our team was lustered by learning ,teaching ,fun and frolic. Events like Genesis and Avensis are the highlights of Coherent's success. Hindi Campaign too was a great success. Along with many successful events the club contributed in a lot of other areas and  projects.  

I remember when I first heard of this brilliant concept and was instantly fascinated  by it . The concept of  giving and gaining to and from the internet in order to make the internet a better place for everyone..Just like Michael Jackson wrote in his song " Heal the World". In our Case it is " Heal the Web". Sounds good. Right? ;)

There will be many more events in the coming future. Better and more succesful than the previous ones stretching the capabilities of the associated individuals to the fullest..

Stay tuned for further such amazing event news and accomplishments.
Till then take care.
Enjoy.

The event started on 16 oct 2015 with a online hangout session on Webmaker Android application. How to use it and how to create a app w/o coding. The session was conducted by Vaibhav Bajaj who is a mozilla rep from bhopal region. He teached them how to make new make or to remix the the already prepared make. He also discussed the difference between creating apps with code and w/o code.  After that it was time for us to make a tutorial for the people who have not attended the online teaching session, so I(kushagra) took the responsibility for making the online video tutorial. I told them about the Webmaker mobile app with the live demos how to create and how to publish and share your make with everyone.
Then after we organised a competition from 17 oct to 25 oct 2015 where people have to prepare a creative, unique and a useful app using Webmaker mobile application and the best make will be awarded with the mozilla swag.
