Microsoft MakeCode for Adafruit is a web-based code editor for physical computing. It provides a block editor, similar to Scratch or Code.org, and also a JavaScript editor for more advanced users. Try it now at https://makecode.adafruit.com/ !
Some of the key features of MakeCode are:
- web based editor: nothing to install
- cross platform: works in most modern browsers from tiny phone to giant touch screens
- compilation in the browser: the compiler runs in your browser, it's fast and works offline
- blocks + JavaScript: drag and drop blocks or type JavaScript, MakeCode let's you go back and forth between the two.
- works offline: once you've loaded the editor, it stays cached in your browser.
- event based runtime: easily respond to button clicks, shake gestures and more
