> why would a child want to code a website Noticed this a lot when engineers try to teach their children coding, far too much time spent trying to teach what they view as the correct way to do things or correct thing to learn. e.g seen several articles that opened on trying to teach them to set up git and a command line environment. I think there is more value in trying to teach them to make something that is more understandable to their world and allows for creativity and therefore a self-learning reinforcement loop to begin. This is why more interactive things like games work so well for this. It's a huge achievement that an 11 year old could complete the courses detailed in the article, but I'm interested if they can go on to take those learnings and initiate their own project. Which is something you definitely see from kids who learnt to code through the likes of Flash or game engines.
