The natural evolution from PowerPoint would be something like HyperCard. Unfortunately, there are no good modern versions of HyperCard that are easily available. I guess the closest is Decker, it was discussed on HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40292181 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40292181 There's a native version on itch: https://internet-janitor.itch.io/decker https://internet-janitor.itch.io/decker For me, this is frustratingly close to being absolutely awesome, but the visual adherence to what HyperCard looked in the 80s prevents it from being a genuinely useful professional tool. It replicates the reason why HyperCard died a slow, painful death. For learning programming, it might be perfect, though, and the visual restrictions might make it less daunting for children to create their own graphics.
