AryaBota

An app to teach Python coding, that gradually allows students to transition from using commands similar to natural language, to more Pythonic constructs.
The experience is gamified through a visual component called AryaBota (AB) - a bot in a grid that navigates its way around obstacles. This tool is still under development.
