There's nothing under that address right now, what do you mean? (Unfortunately I don't own it, if you ask.)

Thanks for the feedback! (And the kind words :). Yeah, I'll rename it soon, trying to get a better domain now.

Hey, I'm not, the code is sent to the server for execution.

I'm afraid can't help with the libs then ;)

I'd like to have more functionality in-browser, though, like an LSP running as a worker in the background. Do you have any materials that I could read about it or something like that?

Thanks! And nice touch :)

As for the questions – I haven't thought much about that, but maybe it would be nice to have. Do you have some ideas on what that simpler than Python could should be? Like e.g. Scratch, or something else?

Replit is similar, this product is like it but tailored specifically for educational purposes.

As for Jupyter Notebooks – ClassroomIO allows you to create an assignment and have a group of students work on it simultaneously without interfering with one another. (Maybe you can do this somehow in Jupyter, but I don't know how.) Also, it supports more languages and the flow is more like a regular console app.

Thanks! Yeah, currently it's an open beta, but in the future I plan to have paid plans, mostly institutional ones I think

Thanks! It's more like CodeSandbox, but tailored specifically for educational purposes.

As for the other project, yeah, thanks for letting me know about it. Didn't know about that one, it must have launched recently as well.

Also, in Python (unlike TypeScript or PHP) you need to be sure that the code regularly passes type checking to have confidence in your type annotations.

I've dealt with my share of code with types that were almost correct but not really and it's been quite frustrating.

For interested I've written an article about it: https://medium.com/@sgorawski/python-types-have-an-expectati...
