The buzz about "New features"
Fandangling over table's and chairs?
You threw your back out last time you checked on Zoe’s code, mainly because while squinting inches from the screen you lost balance and found your foot rolling on Jessica’s water bottle and that’s the last thing you remember.
The substitute teacher sucked. Now, 3 weeks later, you’re finally back and spy Zoe’s raised hand and impatient eyes causing flashbacks.
Last time you debugged her code you had a Near-Death-Experience, “If only there was a better way” you mumble.
and DM without leaving the editor.
Now you can check code in real-time ...
and debug seamlessly with the "Focus Panel".
Now you can see everyone actively coding all at once...
Scientific break-through: "The Grid"
[Parody] Theoretic physicists look at this and shake their heads “They never thought it was possible” says Galileo Lockley (Alias), Head of Product, “But we did it – We managed to allow Teachers to view all their learner’s code at once”.
For a decade now the best we came up with is the POESSUYFT system which stands for Peek-Over-Each-Student’s-Screen-Until-You-Feel-Tired, says head of Edu-Ergonomics at MIT’s User Research Center.
The unlikely breakthrough came through one of the janitors. When explained the conundrum, Jane Wysinski, pointed to her chocolate bar and asked “Why don’t you just show each learner’s code in a grid on the Teacher’s screen?” And the rest is history.
Debug or forward to "Super Tutors"
Jonny pings you on the real-time grid. He’s stuck with his exercise. You’ve looked at his code earlier and it seems right to you. What should you?
Well, instead of posting it on a distant forum, wracking your brain or having sleepless nights about it, just click “Send to Mumu”.
The students lesson progress & existing code get’s sent directly to our “Super Tutor”. She’ll respond and both you and Jonny will see it in the same thread, within the coding panel. Yaaay!
We’re super excited to see you succeed. – That’s why we decided to be available, even for student bugs, not just to support teacher questions.
For how to revive your laptop after it took an unexpected dunk in the bath while you were watching the latest episode of Bachlor/ette, we unfortunately won’t be able to help. (Try putting it in a bag of rice?)
or forward the bug to support with a single click .
While debugging you can leave a comment ...

Made with love for you. 😍
LEARNING MANAGEMENT
Code Commenting & Peer Collab
Want to let a group of students work together. No problem.
They can share projects or interact, even if one or more are remote.
Check code or assignment any time
Check the student’s progress or code of any assignment or lesson at any time. Even before it’s submitted.
See your class in real-time
See who’s online, active, what their typing and deep-dive into debugging with them anytime with the collab feature.
Roster integration
We’ve simplified integration with the leading providers and now with a simple “Click & select class” you can import any roster from Google Classroom.
TANGIBLES & NON-TANGIBLES
Mobile-friendly
No matter what the emergency or technical challenge. CodeTribe just works, on every device, in EVERY browser. But yes, best of all, the full coding experience can be done on mobile too.
(And yes,… it was really hard to build.)
Feature-rich but simple interface
We’ve modeled our UI after the most popular platforms like Flip and Kahoot. So you don’t have to waste time trying to figure out how to things work.
Just register. Invite the class. And go!
Color printed learning sheets
Some times screens are just meh! We get that.
Would you like some reinforced learning through offline activities, planning sheets and cheatsheets.
All wrapped up in cute booklet form?
We thoughts so. 🩷
BEYOND THE EXPECTED
Support the under-resourced
Our program links with CodeJIKA.org, a non-profit program in Africa that supports coding in under-resourced public schools on the continent.
Values based
We support the family as the core societal unit and believe children should be protected from cultural trends that don’t add value to their development.
A “Faith-friendly” platform that supports a diverse base of schools and teachers in their mission of preparing the next generation of leaders.
Premium support

No worries, call our friendly team and get 1 on 1 support. Or, join one of our weekly “Office Hours” calls and meet peers and build your community.
Word on the Street
We finished most of the course before switching and ending the year with the Game-Development highlight.
Having worked with many companies before, having the team, even though far away, really be so responsive and willing to take calls even after hours enabled me to setup all my lessons and projects within the first two days of the term.
Frequently Asked Questions
Even better. You get to invite any friend of your choice with the same license, for free. 😀

Code, it seems, is the lingua franca of the modern economy.
I especially love the Platformer Game-Dev Module, the whole school year just got more fun for all of us.
