The daily agendas included in-depth analyses of subjects important to the students' future jobs, such as front-end development and back-end development. Front-end development is focused on a website's user experience. To ensure that users can navigate and interact with websites with ease, front-end developers employ a variety of technologies, design techniques, and programming languages. They develop layouts and drop-down menus for websites. Using computer programming languages like JavaScript, HTML, and Cascading Style Sheets, front-end developers build websites (CSS).
Back-end developers on the other hand concentrate on the website's server side. They employ their technical expertise to carry out the background tasks that produce a website's framework and general operation, enabling the existence of the site's front end. These experts design the functionality, analytics, and application programming interface (API) of a website. To create apps, back-end developers need comprehensive knowledge of server-side programming languages like Java, Python, and Ruby. By completing boot camps, students can gain knowledge of or brush up on certain computer programming languages.
Other important agendas highlighted during the seminar were Digital Marketing, Mobile Application Development (React Native), and Software Training. Digital marketing, as used in real-world situations, usually refers to advertising efforts that are shown on a computer, phone, tablet, or other electronic devices. It can appear in a variety of ways, such as social media postings, paid social advertisements, display ads, online videos, and display commercials. The "conventional marketing" methods like billboards, magazines, and direct mail are frequently contrasted with digital marketing. The process of developing software applications for mobile devices, on the other hand, is known as mobile application development. A typical mobile application uses a network connection to interact with remote computing resources. Moreover, the importance of software training was discussed. Online training is made easier by the use of training software, usually referred to as a learning management system. It is utilized by businesses of all sizes in a variety of sectors to teach staff members, clients, and business partners.
The goal of this seminar was to provide students with insight into how to handle the intense pressure of landing a job in software development in light of the fierce competition in the field. The sessions would have enhanced the students' comprehension of their areas of interest and assisted them in evaluating their options.
