Raspberry Pi launches a free online code editor aimed at young people that teaches how to write Python code

14 Apr. (Portaltic/EP) –

Raspberry Pi has released a free online code editor designed so that any user can learn to write python code and run it directly in the browserwithout the need for configuration and with a “simple and intuitive” interface.

python it’s a programming language what was it created in 1991 and that throughout its history it has been used in applications of all kinds, becoming one of the languages ​​most used by programmers. This is because it is considered one of the easiest to learn because it is in text format and similar to English.

Based on it, the developer foundation of the Raspberry Pi computershas launched this project of code editor with the objective of “involve millions of young people” for support their computer learning and how to create digital technologiesas explained in a statement from your blog.

Specifically, it is a new editor that works directly from the browser and it does not need the installation of any application. In it, users can program and run the codein addition to learn about programming. For this, it has a “simple and intuitive” interface that brings together project instructions so that the user can learn while writing code.

As reported by Raspberry Pi, this editor is designed so that any user learn to write code from scratch with ease, since it is designed to be able to used from the age of seven onwards.

In order to start using the editor, you only need to have a Raspberry Pi Foundation account to login. Likewise, the created projects will be saved in the editor itself to be able to continue developing them from any device.

Likewise, Raspberry has started the project including python becauseas indicated, it is a code “widely” used by professionals and tops an industry standard index as TIOBE, which classifies programming languages. However, the company has also stressed that “in the near future” will add support for other languages web development such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

However, the foundation also plans to introduce other functions that allow the exchange of projects and collaboration in the same work.

With all this, Raspberry has pointed out that the code editor It is still in beta phase of development, so it is possible that some functions are not carried out completely correctly. Nevertheless, invite users to try it and provide feedback based on your experience.
