This document provides an agenda for a workshop on building a virtual pet with JavaScript. The workshop will begin with a review of starter code, cover key JavaScript concepts like variables, objects, functions, and conditionals. Participants will then build their virtual pet app, getting support from instructors. The goal is for participants to learn project-based web development skills through a hands-on project of creating an interactive virtual pet, rather than through drills.
