Furthermore I am sure the extension came from the Mozilla Corporation side and not the Foundation side. Based on the last audit (2016-2015) if I read it correctly 52K was brought in through "receivables" which includes search engine deal revenues
If it wasn't for Thimble I would never have done anything locally. I wouldn't have been able to install Git.
I am an educator and a volunteer contributor to Mozilla Learning. I can honestly say that everything I have learned about HTML/CSS is due to using Thimble in my teaching for the last year and a half.
For my students, who are not in digital arts, computer science, or web design programs Thimble is a wonderful scaffold. This new version is even better.
If they get to the level where they are editing locally my students will now be able to download projects.
