New Coding with Chrome App

New ‘Coding With Chrome’ App Helps Students Learn to Code

BY  

A new Google app helps students learn more about programming with using web technologies.

The search giant’s ‘Coding with Chrome’ app is billed in the Web Store as: ‘an educational IDE showing off various Google EDU technologies’.
Although in beta the app works well. It allows students to program in Blockly, Coffeescript, HTML, and Javascript, both visually, both through a GUI and a traditional ‘text’ interface, and see instant visual “results” of their code.
Students can out-put projects in Logo Turtle and/or to connected ‘smart’ toys likeSphero and Lego Mindstorms.


Coding with Chrome is a free app available from the Chrome Web Store. It is currently in beta.
