As I continue to look for apps on coding, I've been finding that are several apps out there, each having their own twist to coding. Tynker starts the user with simple programming logic like Scratch and Code.org and builds on progression as the user can get into more complex coding. The concept is the same as Scratch/Code; the user has to drag and build blocks of visual code. The puzzles are themed like Code but what separates Tynker from Code is that in Tynker, the user has to complete the levels to unlock the next level. In code.org, the user has the freedom to jump around and doesn't have to finish a level to move on to the next. Just like Code, Tynkera allows the user to develop apps and games for devices. What separates Tynker is that the app allows users to create programs for robots, create flight paths for drone and learn Javascript and Python. Definitely something I am going to look into with my students.
