You can embed an integrated Jupyter notebook into a Grist spreadsheet: https://github.com/gristlabs/jupyterlite-widget/blob/main/US...

There is a link to the Table of Contents ( https://futurecoder.io/course/#toc ) in the bar at the top. Is it not easy to notice?

Thanks. I tried running code but couldn't see any results/output. I was hoping to see `input()` in action. The dev console just logs `{type: 'error', data: '{}', contentType: 'text…

This looks amazing, congratulations!

Thank you, it's really great to hear that you've gone through several pages already and didn't find any problems more significant than this :)

Awesome! Can you show me what you built?

> One interactive component that we use heavily that might interest you for futurecoder is what we call an interactive walkthrough: https://www.learncs.online/best#interactive-walk…

> Sorry if I was unclear but this was in no way a criticism of your excellent product. It is truly fantastic. Thank you! I don't think you were unclear and I didn't read any critic…

Thanks! To run multiple lines of code, use the editor, not the shell. If you only see the shell, it's because it's hidden at the beginning of the course for beginners. See the tabl…

I'll also add that it has been copied and rehosted, with my help. There's a slightly customised French version here: https://futurecoder.forge.aeif.fr/ This version is meant for ma…

Thanks! I'm sure there's lots of good stuff out there but I'm afraid I have no plans to generalise to other programming languages myself. Many of the special magical features of fu…

futurecoder was actually translated to French by three teachers working for the French Ministry of Education to use when teaching the maths/programming subject 'NSI'. I love maths …

I very strongly believe that it's better to start with an easy language. Sure it's easier to learn Python after C++ than it is to learn C++ after Python, but a harder language will…

Others have suggested autocomplete before. I opened https://github.com/alexmojaki/futurecoder/issues/120 in response as a place to talk about it. But in general my opinion is that …

Updates since then: - A new 'assistant' UI that prevents users from getting stuck on instructions they found unclear, which was the most common complaint. - Can now be translated t…

It's available in Spanish: https://es-latam.futurecoder.io/ It was actually the first translation to be finished 100%, although now it's fallen behind to 91% as new English text wa…

1. Thanks, I've never heard about this, will definitely need to check it out. Opened https://github.com/alexmojaki/futurecoder/issues/418 2. Because it all runs in the browser (tha…

Thanks! Great job teaching your daughter so well at such a young age! > but there are more tools for Python these days I can't comment on what exists or what's possible in Ruby, bu…

The buttons on the landing page are: - Start learning (see the tutorial content) or - Just code (you don't need to learn, you just want to use the editor/shell as a simple scratchp…

That's not really true. For the actual exercises where you need to solve a problem yourself, the system only tests that the code produces the correct output. It doesn't require you…

Some highlights: - 100% free and open source ( https://github.com/alexmojaki/futurecoder ), no ads or paid content. - No account required at any point. You can start instantly. (Yo…

Creator here. Thank you! I could definitely still use help if you're willing, here's some specific issues: https://github.com/alexmojaki/futurecoder/issues/212 https://github.com/a…
