About Young Coder

What’s coming next in the Young Coder publication

We serve brain food

Young Coder is a publication about coding, science, and tech — usually with a twist. We love quirky science, creative coding, and all the places inspiration meets semicolons.

• If you’re a programming professional, you’ll love our deep reads on subjects like the history of JavaScript, or how coders survive when they can no longer type.
• If you’re a new or hopeful coder, we’ve got you covered with a slowly expanding set of tutorials and how-to articles. (Why not start with JavaScript? Check out two simple examples you can use to learn JavaScript events, right in your browser, no setup required.)
• If you’re a teacher, we go deep on subjects like keeping girls in STEM, helping kids learn to code, and the challenges of teaching students to think critically.
• If you want to play with electronics, we’re digging in to the miraculous (and cheap) Raspberry Pi mini-computer. Then we’re going to get serious with Lego.
• And if you don’t fit into any of these neat little boxes, you’ll still find some fascinating science and technology reads, like our report on conspiracy videos for kids. Or maybe you want to play the world’s most puzzling logic game.
