Checking out final student projects at App Academy is exciting. Throughout their bootcamp course, students work through examples of what web apps do, what they look like, and most importantly, how they work. By the time they arrive at the end of the course, students learn enough to create a functioning piece of tech they can show to prospective employers. While students push to build something special, teachers are sometimes surprised at how innovative builds get.

Over the past calendar year, we’ve seen students come up with different types of games, web applications, and mobile apps. Some use cool graphic libraries and fun design choices while others take established products and remake them with their own twist. In all, students express their burgeoning skills in awesome ways.

App Academy teaching staff talked to us about the following projects but they’re just a sample of the great variety and quality of apps produced by students. We analyzed them with the help of one of the bootcamp’s top instructors.
