Hopscotch is a programming tool for kids. Our iPad app was the first programming language designed for a touchscreen device. Kids learn organically as they create, and the open-ended environment keeps the app compelling each time they return.
Kids have a strong identity and network within Hopscotch. They build projects and games by dragging and dropping code blocks, then publish their work to our community. There they can get inspiration, share their work, learn from others and collaborate.
Hopscotch’s mission is to empower anyone anywhere to create their own technologies.
