OSAC (Open Source ASCOL Circle) is a group of lerners based primarily on Computer Science and Information Technologies students from Amrit Science College, Tribhuvan University, Nepal.
What we do?
We share our knowledge among friends through formal and informal, regular and occasional get-togethers. In such get-togethers we talk, demonstrate, teach share and learn BUT basically we have fun there.
OSAC successfully conducted its first event for August as part of OSAC Week - the “Figma and Photoshop Workshop - Online Design Bootcamp”. This event marked the beginning of our initiative to host monthly 2-5 day bootcamps, workshops, or webinars on specific tech topics.
The bootcamp covered both theoretical aspects of designing and practical applications. Our talented speaker, Nikki Arts (@nikki_arts__), led an engaging hands-on session, while Anupama Rai (@anupamaa_raii) skillfully moderated the event.
Learning, exploring and growing together is always so fun and inspiring. We successfully conducted “Getting started with App development based on OpenStreetMap”. The event was fruitful thanks to the combined effort of OSAC team, our dear mentor Ichchha Moktan and all of the participants.
Ms Ichchha guided us participants how to harness OSM in apps, what specific benefits it provides and answered our queries about specific caveats and usecases. About 40 Participants both from BIT and CSIT were present the event.
Some glimpses from final day of Web Development Bootcamp where Mr. Hemanta Mahatara demonstrated his project.
He walked us throught the django + leaflet web project he had built and explained the challenges, ways one can go abou making such project.
We thank Mr. Hemanta Mahatara and everyone who participated in this session.
