In plain words

Snap is a visual programming language designed to teach coding concepts through block-based programming. It allows users to create interactive projects by snapping together colored blocks that represent different commands and functions. The language is aimed at students and beginners learning computer science fundamentals. Snap runs in web browsers and emphasizes creativity alongside technical skill-building through hands-on project creation.

    Pickcode is a new language and editor for getting kids started with coding. The code editing experience is totally structured, where you select choices from menus rather than typing.

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
