HEAVENLY ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’ve been using the app Encode and it’s phenomenal. 100% free, you can play as long as you want, quick ads, no pay walls. It’s like a better, programmer Duolingo! I often stop learning new things pretty quick, but I’m on an 11 day streak since I started. I’m already over half-way through since it’s so addicting! I have already recommended it to some friends online and in-person. So good! 🥰

Great, but maybe add more different programming language

I’ve been using this app for a few weeks now, and it is helping me understand code better. I thought that I won’t be able to code with other confusing tutorials online, but this app helped me overcome that struggle.

I also want to learn C or C++ as those are also one of the more useful language for game development. It would be nice to include those as well and other slightly common languages.

Overall, I’m satisfied with the lessons and the other languages I can learn in the app, such as R, HTML, and Java.
