Great branding and idea! But unfortunately it won't help you to learn any JS.

Although I'm a coder with some experience, I go through the tasks of Grasshooper from time to time and I'd suggest it to someone, who would like to start coding JS

Pros:

Good and simple explanations, intuitive user interface

Cons:

Would like to see more advanced topics

ease of modeling objects without the need to know the dimensions

Pros:

more agile and more free modeling

Cons:

Difficulty editing the model when it is very advanced

really a good app for those who wants to learn how to code

Just another great project from the Google team, and a really good one: the interest on programming is always something hard to tackle but this app made me (as a dev) want to review again JS.

Pros:

Great design, learning curve and experience.

Cons:

"Log in every day" style ruins the sense of achievement for anyone that has a busy day and can't log in.

Great app will refer this in my site also.
Amazing, impressive, educational and fun. Try to use it to teach my dad programming

I've wanted to learn how to code for a while, I've even tried with apps for kids but it's not the same. A friend recommended me this app and it was all I was looking for.

Pros:

Finally! An app to learn coding for adult. It's super easy to start with and you study without even noticing it.

Cons:

It's addictive!

more and more exercices. The goal is to practice a lot like in bootcamp

Pros:

quite easy

Cons:

more exercices

I was looking for alternatives to learn javascript and this game is perfect for that.

Pros:

Explain extremely easy javascript

Cons:

spanish version and more languages.
