Hedy: Creating a Programming Language for Everyone • Felienne Hermans • YOW! 2023

[@LearnCodingGrid]

Really enjoyed this talk! When we were building Coding Grid and the VisualL language, we ran into a lot of the same stuff. We came up with a block-based visual language that feels like Java, C, JavaScript, Kotlin, and more, but with a cool feature - you can use non-English keywords. This is all about making coding way more friendly and inclusive. Love seeing all the different ways people are making learning to code fun and accessible to everyone.

Very nicely explained the sooth of the language principles.

I was discussing with some co-workers how we should be able to program in other languages. I feel vindicated, thank you Professor Hermans

I like how range(1, 10) in the talk differs from the python. It was modified to be inclusive, and more readable for humans.
