I'm building this tool to make it easier for educators to create programming videos. It can also be useful for people new to programming to play around with basic data structures and algorithms like Trees, Linked Lists, etc.

Looking forward to feedback from HN :)

Note: Doesn't work very well on Mobile

You need to pick a different name, mate.

Gnutella is an exceptionally notable and influential fully-meshed P2P project by Nullsoft. Know your history, respect the elders :)

Didn't know about this famous distributed systems project! Thanks for pointing out, changed the name of mine to codable.live

Is this related to the Gnutella Network?

Nope. I didn't know about the Gnutella Network when I posted this. I've changed the name since but HN doesn't allow editing posts.

Depends if it was trademarked. It's more funny that the FSF has asked them to change their name https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gnutella.en.html since their software isn't even released under GPL, let alone part of GNU.
