Languages And Coding With Sasha
About
I am a dual degree college student studying Computer Science, and Business Managment.
I have some coding experience through the Google Developer Student Club, school, personal learning, "Girls Who Code", and Agnes Scott College.
I won an award at the HackHolyoke hackathon for creating an app with a team, "HackMatch". Together we made working code in Java. I was responsible for the Photoshop Prototype of an app. All of us are new to computer science and did not know how to build an app. Between us we knew Java, Python, Javascript, C, and basic html. We took what we knew and used it. With this code you can make an account with a username and password and then it lets you choose if you want 2, 3, or 4 members in your group, you then enter the competition or hack-a-thon name. If you match with someone, you get put in a hackchat group chat with them.
