Our park coding group keeps hitting Wi-Fi dead zones

We set up a beginner coding circle at the local park every Saturday. But the public Wi-Fi is spotty, and half the time we can't access our learning sites. It's really annoying when you're in the middle of understanding a new concept. We're thinking of pitching in for a mobile hotspot, but that adds cost.

It struck me how this approach could influence our work in high-end residential projects, emphasizing seamless transitions and cultural authenticity.
