Career Karma Projects Spotlight: August 10th

As the new week begins, we have been busy looking at the great work bootcamp students and code newbies are working on.

Last week, we saw projects like a recipe app for family members and a pixel-perfect clone of the Discord messaging app submitted to Career Karma Projects.
