Hey Sławomir, great work! Do you think it can be somehow adjusted to the youngest kids that are not ready for Python, but would like to code anyway?
Powodzenia, trzymam kciuki za Ciebie i Twoją platformę!

#13As a former CS teacher the real barrier is finding qualified teachers. Most schools, even international schools which pay significantly better, seem to have math or science teachers with little or no coding experience filling the role.
I sent 30 applications to London schools offering to teach programming and didn't get a single reply. I have experience teaching in adult education and over 20 years as a professional programmer.

#14What does this do that http://REPL.IT or Jupyter Notebooks do not do?

#15I really like the idea and the site too. Do you plan to increase the price in the future?

I wonder if it all gets lost in HR who looks at their hiring listing and sees there is no opening and disregards it.

#17Nice one, congrats! Is this something like CodeSandbox or more like a LeetCode platform where you solve problems, get feedback and so on? P.S: I just created an account today on classromio.com, which has a different purpose, but it's weird that I came across 2 different apps with the same name in the same day.
Thanks! It's more like CodeSandbox, but tailored specifically for educational purposes.
As for the other project, yeah, thanks for letting me know about it. Didn't know about that one, it must have launched recently as well.

Thanks!
Yeah, currently it's an open beta, but in the future I plan to have paid plans, mostly institutional ones I think

Replit is similar, this product is like it but tailored specifically for educational purposes.
As for Jupyter Notebooks – ClassroomIO allows you to create an assignment and have a group of students work on it simultaneously without interfering with one another. (Maybe you can do this somehow in Jupyter, but I don't know how.) Also, it supports more languages and the flow is more like a regular console app.

#20Looks incredibly cool. I'm building a similar project, and I know how much work it is to put something like this together.
Thanks for the kind words :)
