Learn (and teach) coding with an educational version of JavaScript
Most coding education systems still use engineering versions of their programming languages. We say -- let's make coding more friendly!
Engineering systems are inappropriate for students.
We use educational systems for teaching.
Any teacher or parent can teach any student or class.
Unlimited subject-matter support included.

...In a word: students like the Blackbird platform. I've taught coding with other popular resources, but Blackbird is more pedagogically effective.
