Gearing Up For Hour Of Code

 Gearing Up For Hour Of Code
We will be uploading the alpha form of our Code Lab and Lessons any day now, and are excited to begin finally sharing our work with the world. If you haven’t heard about the Hour of Code sponsored by Code.org http://www.code.org, it is an exciting event for students all around the world where they try out coding lessons for just 1 hour. The idea is that through offering engaging tutorials in programming, the event can get kids hooked on coding.

There is a big push this year for tutorials like ours to be multilingual, which is one of the reasons why we’ve translated our app and blog into 7 languages other than English. We are super excited to announce that we now have English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, German, Polish, and Turkish. If you are reading this in a langauge other than English, you may find some of the translation may not be perfect. I apologize for that - but we are using Google Translate for translations, and they aren’t always perfect.I’ll be writing some blog posts soon about the process of converting our website and app to different languages, as it has been a definite learning experience.
