Does it work on an ipad?
Kids love phones. Kids love tablets. If you or your kid has one, then good news: Every program they write in Bitsbox will run on it. Once you've written your app, all you have to do is point your device at our site, and the fairy dust will do the rest.
Imagine what your kid will say when they see their very own program running on an iPad. Picture their face.
However, when it comes to writing the actual code, for now we want the kids on the keyboard. That's part of what we're teaching. So they'll need access to a computer, too. (We're exploring a pure-tablet version as well, but it's not our focus just yet.)
