Yes so regardless of what language or where the language runs, we give you a container, inside that container we drop in a server that's responsible for most of the functionality including editing, collaboration, hosting, etc. A little

Yes try Basic. But even if you want to use Python, I would started with our Python Turtle environment which would be a lot less confusing than Pyxel: http://repl.it/l/python_turtle

Cool see this here! But let me provide some context: This is a program PG wrote with his kid. He asked me to build into Repl.it a classic Basic implementation and make it really easy to do graphics programming. So I wrote an interpreter and

Oh ok. I'll think about that. Slightly off topic but I just made a BASIC environment designed for kids learning to code. The theory is BASIC is still one of the best way languages to start with. Let me know if you try it: - https:&#x2

Repl.it CEO here, I'm curious which noise are you talking about? Here is how the empty python environment looks like (editor, console, and a huge green run button): https://answer-on-hn.amasad.repl.co/python.png We con
