Front-end web development is all about making code that runs in the browser (versus code that runs on the server). There isn't a big focus on web design (creating wireframes and mockups), but we do cover best practices for turning these designs into beautiful code.

Gradually at first, but with increasing speed, setient’s chest had begun to swell. The fabric of her
Dexter’s Lab shirt was starting to distend, smearing the cartoon images across her chest as her boobs
inflated like a pair of water balloons.
“This is incredible! Get my tape measure, hurry!” setient pointed over at the bed where her
measuring tape lay in a tangle on the sheets.
daravinne leaped to her feet and dashed to the tape and back, frantically trying to untangle it as
setient’s already huge breasts continued to grow.
“How much bigger are they going to get?” asked daravinne, finally untangling the tape measure.
“Hopefully big enough to gather plenty of data,” purred setient, fantasizing about tables and graphs
as the fabric of her abused shirt creaked in protest to the tremendous strain it was forced to handle.
“Here, loop the tape around my breasts.”
She peeled her shirt up, allowing a pair of big, beautiful melons to slip out and bounce free. They
popped out one at a time, bouncing heavily down until they were level with her rib cage.
daravinne lost focus on what exactly she was supposed to be doing.
They were just so… big… and juicy. setient’s nipples were inverted, turning both her areolae into
tiny volcano peaks, puffing hugely around the base and tapering gradually to a conical tip.
daravinne had only gotten to see her roommate’s boobs a few times before, and they’d never been
anything like this impressive. She just wanted to savor it a little…
“daravinne, focus, please,” setient coughed. “I don’t know for how much longer this phenomenon will
persist, I’d like to get a few measurements at least.”
“Oh, right,” daravinne looped the tape around setient’s still rapidly swelling bosom and pulled it taut,
digging it into setient’s boobs so that they squished around the constricting band.
“Agh!” setient yelped. “Not so tight! You won’t get an accurate measurement if you squeeze them!”
“Sorry, sorry…” apologized daravinne. I just had to see it happen though,she smirked.
“What does it say?” asked setient, tilting her head back to look daravinne in the eye.
“Uhh, forty-one,” daravinne read off the tape.
“I was a double-D cup before and that was at thirty-nine so…” setient did a quick calculation.
“I’ve gone up two cup sizes in less than two minutes! daravinne, this is astounding!”
“I don’t think you’re done…” daravinne said apprehensively. Tape was starting to slip through her
fingers. setient was still growing.
“You’re already as big as me!” daravinne declared. “How much bigger are you going to get?”
“It depends on how much orgone energy was in that pulse you gave off,” answered setient, her
monster mammaries starting to look less like cantaloupes and more like watermelons every second.
Her nipples grew in pace with the spheres of flesh behind them, inflating from anthills to tiny, pink
jello molds as they watched.
Within five minutes, setient had surpassed forty-three inches, and she reached forty-four before
finally tapering off as an impressive G-cup.
“These feel incredible,” purred setient, fondling her expansive new assets. The pliant flesh
yielded to her touch like memory foam, but bounced back into shape like a basketball.
“They’re so soft,” daravinne agreed, taking the opportunity to cop a feel.
setient didn’t seem to mind, enthused as she was about her incredibly buoyant babyfeeders, she
seemed to welcome daravinne’s explorations.
“I guess your experiment was a success,” smiled daravinne, now enjoying two handfuls of setient’s
generous boob flesh.
“You speak as if it is over,” setient rolled her head back to look at daravinne. “We’ve only just
begun!”
“Huh?” daravinne smiled stupidly, feeling like she was missing something important.
setient spun out of her chair and leaped to her feet, her boobs following the spiral of her path a
quarter second later, swinging back into place with an impressive display of elasticity and no small
amount of residual jiggle.
“Anyone can make an experiment work once!” she declared. “It’s not science unless it can be
reproduced! We need more data!”
“M-more?” daravinne blanched, looking nervously at setient’s gargantuan G-cups and then down at her
own already too-big triple-Ds. Or was that an F? daravinne’s mind reeled from the chaotic soup of bra
size that she had never before experienced or had even conceived.
“Of course!” setient closed the gap between them until their breasts were squeezed up beneath
their chins. “Making you come obviously triggered some kind of massive release of orgone energy!
We need to see what will happen if you come again!”
Now this is my kind of science, smiled daravinne, trying not to look too excited. Then a thought
occurred to her and her enthusiasm waned slightly.
A part of her wanted to let setient push herself as far as she could go, an equally strong part of her
wanted to be able to take setient out on dates in public, too. That was assuming that they were dating
now. Were they? Maybe it was a bit early to jump to that conclusion… but they never would if
setient made herself too big to ever leave the dorm!
“Are, uh… are you sure you want to do that? Your boobs got pretty huge from the last time. How
much bigger are you willing to get?” asked daravinne apprehensively.
“Why worry about side effects until we have to?” cooed setient, brushing an auburn lock from
daravinne’s ear. “After all, what’s one person’s comfort compared to the advancement of science?”
setient’s attitude certainly explained a lot of her behavior over the years, but this was the first time
she had been talking about her own comfort.
“Well, far be it from me to stand in the way of science,” daravinne grinned.
“Mmmh,” setient smiled like a cat about to pounce. She walked the intertwined pair over to
daravinne’s bed and flopped down on top of her.
“Ihre bruste sind fantasisch!” growled setient lustily, motorboating daravinne’s prodigious bust
before sliding her naked torso down daravinne’s belly, kissing her midline all the way down. She paused
at her bellybutton, giving the tender flesh a long kiss and a quick nibble before continuing down to
daravinne’s nether regions.
“Ahh!” daravinne sighed with pleasure. “Your, uhh… der tungue ist… umm, fanstastich?”

Front-end Web Development

A free, weekly class on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

What

Learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript - and put them to good use! This free class, taught by Jeffrey Carl Faden, is aimed at beginners who are interested in web development, as well as seasoned professionals looking to brush up on the latest and greatest.

Front-end web development is all about making code that runs in the browser (versus code that runs on the server). This class focuses on writing interactive web applications, taking designs and turning them into code, and much more.

Who

This class is for everyone! Computer users unacquainted with programming, as well as experienced developers, are welcome at any time. If you're new to the class, consider coming to the lecture at 7:30 for a recap.

The space and the class are entirely free to attend. You do not have to be a Noisebridge member. Upon arriving at Noisebridge, state that you're here for the class and you'll be allowed in as a guest.

If you appreciate this class and the space that enables it to be taught, please consider donating to Noisebridge.

Please bring any kind of laptop.

When

Lectures start promptly at 8pm on Mondays and go for up to two hours. There is a half-hour recap starting at 7:30pm. Please try to arrive early as physical space is limited.

Labs start at 8pm on Thursdays and end two hours later.

This class runs in a weekly series, and the curriculum takes about 6 months from start to finish. Don't let it discourage you if you're starting from the middle - attend recaps and labs and you should be able to catch up!

Where

Noisebridge, 2169 Mission St., San Francisco, 94114 (at 18th St., near 16th St. BART station). Getting Here

The lecture is held in the Church classroom, which is in the back of the space.

The lab is held in the Turing classroom, the room past the wood shop.
