Documentation!
Documentation! I can't find out how to use random numbers, or how to detect when two sprites have collided, etc etc. The teachers' guide is a helpful start, but a website I could direct the kids to would turn this from an interesting one-lesson introduction to programming, to a useful resource.

We have a documentation. On the right top of the screen in-app is 3 horizontal lines. Click that for the documentation.

Hey guys,
There is some documentation embedded in the site, but it only shows up when you're coding. Here are steps to get to it.
1. Log in to a coding account
2. Click any app
3. Click the little "library" icon in the top right (it looks like 2 squares)
4. Select the "commands" tabThe entire Bitsbox API is documented with example code you can edit right inline and experiment with. Obviously, we need to make that easier to discover! Stay tuned for improvements in that arena.

There's a FAQ. That's not the same as documentation. There isn't even a list of commands the restricted version of Javascript uses!
