App Camp 4 Girls
summary
Program runs one-week sessions teaching Xcode, Swift and Acorn with hands-on templates that produce a deployable quiz app and other simple apps, shipping a compendium that already hits the App Store; curriculum uses iPod Touches for device builds, six MacBook Pros and scanned artwork, and introduces Swift Playgrounds on iPad. Organizing needs a location, volunteers, a paid lead iOS instructor, a ~$10k–$30k budget, and covers real metrics: ~170 girls, ~60 volunteers, and over 100 apps shipped.
