Queens’ Coding Workshop Hacks in Corona

Corona clicked last night with Queens’ Coding Workshop, wiring NYC’s spring at a park hall. Dev Tariq Evans taught Java as 40 typed, a $15 class for script kids. It’s borough bytes—pure Queens vibe, screens hot. A kid fixed a bug; a pro built a site. ‘Queens codes—this is it,’ Evans says, tapping keys. The room turned lab.

The shop’s fresh—April 4’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing desks by 6 p.m. Evans, a Flushing coder; last night’s crowd hit max—lines flowed. A latecomer nabbed a rig; coffee buzzed—NYC grit glowed. Projects hit GitHub—code ruled. #QueensCodingShop trended; Brooklyn wants a script.

Some griped—’Too geeky,’ sniped a newbie, dodging loops. Wi-Fi lagged—fixed quick; hacks held. A rival’s pitching a LIC night, splitting keyboards. Still, 50 stayed—bits reigned. Corona’s never hacked so bold.

Evans hints at a hackathon, maybe a park if spring bites. ‘NYC’s tech—this grows it,’ he says, packing drives. The shop’s a Queens win—grit meets grid. It’s a code rush; join the next. Bring a laptop—bugs call.
