Code for Real - Learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript with drag and drop blocks

Code for Real is a no-cost, ad-free tablet app that teaches students to code with drag and drop blocks. Students can go through one of the many tutorials and build working apps with step by step instructions, such as a virtual pet that they can feed, play with, and give it rest. Or they can create anything they want in our sandbox with our many templates that can help spark new ideas!
