Pocket Code alternatives
Pocket Code is a block-based visual programming environment that helps teenagers to program and build their own apps, games, music, and animations directly on their smartphones. It is similar to Scratch but doesn’t need any laptop or PC. Some activities of Pocket Code are targeted directly at female teenagers to close the gender gap in STEM-Studies. The app consists of a visual Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and a programming language execution engine for the Catrobat Programming language.
With the use of simple graphic blocks, teenagers can create their own game, colorful animations, or extensive stories directly on their mobile phones without any advanced or even basic programming knowledge. It also allows access to many sensors on the smartphone, for instance, inclination, GPS, or compass direction, and support for image, voice, and face recognition has been added. All in all, Pocket Code is a great learning app for kids and teenagers to make the programming base strong at a very young age.
