Shelly looks cool, thanks.

There was a discussion on HN a few years back about Seymour Papert’s Mindstorms: Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas (1980), which may be relevant if you're interested in the history of Turtle and Logo. [1]

I've been collecting resources for self-directed programming/learning that kids can use for at-home, project-based learning. Some family members are looking for ideas for their children.

I'll playtest it with a young learner and see how far they get through the tutorial.

Thanks! Would be great to get feedback once you get an occasion.

The tutorial is only a start for what we are planning, so this is an area we'd like to work on next. Hence any pointers or ideas are welcome :)

Nicely done tool/site. Is there a play button to make the turtle start at the beginning and follow the path? Or pause and speed commands? I'm expecting that watching a turtle move is going to be key to getting my son into this.

Not yet, but that's one of the features we want to add after this initial release. Thanks for the feedback!
