Assessments

Three assignments carry 80% of the course between them: two static prototypes and a full-stack final project.

An assignment is the weekly crit loop run at assignment scale: the same repo anatomy, the same deploy targets, a meatier provocation, and a human-marked rubric on top. The assessment page is the canonical source for the model and the mechanics — the one rubric all three share, what you submit, deadlines and extensions. Each brief below carries what’s specific to it: the provocation, the dates, and the band descriptors. For every deliverable — crits and assignments — on one semester timeline, see the home page.
