Google Coder is a new Node.JS-based application to help kids create web pages that include HTML, JavaScript and CSS. With a bit of Googling, I was able to run it on a BeagleBone Black over the USB cable in no time.

I saw the Google Coder video a couple days ago which really intrigued, and I'm very happy now I can stick with my preferred Single Board Computer to try it out:

Anyone else excited about the potential of Google Coder?

Cheers,

Drew

Good one Drew looks like a nice way to knock up those Web apps do you think this would be suitable to give that instant gratification to a kid ?

I think Scratch would be more appropriate for a kid. This requires one to be able to understand text-based syntax of HTML, CSS and JS.
