Reference excerpt

Kode with Klossy is an American 501(c)(3) organization which provides free coding camps for girls and non-binary teens, founded in 2015 by Karlie Kloss and headquartered in New York City, New York, United States. Camps are held during the summer from June to August. Applicants must be ages 13–18 to participate. Attendees can join camps that are held virtually online. In-person camps are available in various cities within and outside of the U.S., including in London, Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Dallas/Richardson, Washington D.C., Indianapolis, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Seattle, and St. Louis. Kode with Klossy offers the following computer science curriculums: web development, machine learning, mobile app, and data science.

History In 2016, Kloss created her own free two-week coding bootcamp for teen girls and non-binary teens, Kode with Klossy. Kode with Klossy teaches the basics of numerous programming languages, such as Ruby, JavaScript, and Swift. By the end of the program, participants in the camp have built fully functional mobile apps or websites. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Kode with Klossy has utilized Zoom to include scholars from over a hundred countries in workshops. In 2023, the camp added a workshop in London. As of 2024, Kode with Klossy has partnerships with various corporations including Apple, Chegg, Estée Lauder, Goldman Sachs, Carolina Herrera, Google, Infosys, WeWork, and Wix.com. The coding camp also collaborates with Flatiron School, Turing School, and Teach for America.

Alumni Many scholars use the coding skills they develop at Kode with Klossy to further social justice causes. One alumnus, Sofia Ongele, created an app, ReDawn (2017), to provide resources to survivors of sexual assault. Another alumnus created an app to inform users of safe running routes in their neighborhood. Kode with Klossy scholar, Maya Dummett, “has worked on creating apps to improve social welfare services and created a chatbot called "M" who encourages others to pursue STEM.” KWK scholar, Etasha Donthi, created her own organization for marginalized kids in STEM. By 2021, 8,000 scholars had graduated from Kode with Klossy. According to Texas Metro News, “78% of those who attended Kode with Klossy camps pursued majors or minors in computer science.”

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Kode With Klossy

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Kode With Klossy claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In computer science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Kode With Klossy before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Kode With Klossy ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Kode With Klossy

In research: Kode With Klossy appears in computer science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Kode With Klossy in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Kode With Klossy is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2015 establishments in New York City, 501(c)(3) organizations, Coding schools, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Kode With Klossy outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
