For my current ICTX project, I am working on app coding. I have very little coding experience (I can do drag and drop, like Scratch, and I wrote code to make a light blink), so I am starting from basics, using this tutorial and Xcode.

The next step is to build the code behind the app, which is a little nerve wracking but also exciting. I’m pretty excited to learn how to randomize the cards, because I’ve always been sort of curious about that.
