Final Project

🌟 Final Project Phase – Spring 2025

The Final Project is the highlight of the semester and an essential part of the learning journey at ReDI. During this phase, learners apply the skills they’ve developed to create a personal or team project that showcases their knowledge in JavaScript.

🚀 About the Project Phase

The project phase begins after the core curriculum is completed.

Learners will:

• Work individually or in small groups (up to 3 people)

• Choose their own project topic with teacher guidance

• Build a working web app or website

💡 Goal: Apply the concepts learned in class in a hands-on, creative project

🧑‍💻 Project Requirements

Each project must include:

• A code-based solution using JavaScript

• A presentation and a live demo (showing a working web app or website with interactivity)

💡Final Project Ideas

Students choose their own project topic with teacher guidance. Project types may include:

• A quiz or trivia game

• A to-do list or productivity tool

• An interactive landing page or form

• A weather or news app using APIs

• Anything aligned with the course content and realistic for the timeframe
