N3XTCODER Workshop Weekend - UX/UI Design & React Native

Join us on October 8th & 9th 2016 for the N3XTCODER Workshop Weekend in Berlin with a focus on UX/UI Design and Mobile App Development with React Native. Learn from social startup “Wertewandel”, a new bonus program mobile app that helps you to consume more consciously!

On Saturday we will focus on User Experience and User Interface Design for mobile apps. You will be able to enhance your skills and expand your knowledge by designing an app feature for Wertewandel together with Danielle Reid (Co-Founder & VP Product of Sterio.me and Design Strategist), designer Craig Kershaw and creative participants.
