Hour of Code™ is a nonprofit organization that encourages people of all ages to learn how to write computer code!
There are LOTS of types of computer code. Some of the most common are:
HTML
Java
CSS
C++
Python
PHP
Different types of code are used to do different types of jobs. Hour of Code™ just encourages people to learn one - whatever you find most interesting!
Everything you do on a computer, tablet, or smartphone started off as code. Video Games, Websites, Apps, and Programs are ALL created with code. What do you want to build during this year's Hour of Code™?
