I met my best friend here.

Kids 8–16 learn to code by making video games, and learn engineering by building robots with Arduino.

What we teach

Coding through games. Engineering through robots.

Coding and game development

Students code their own video games in JavaScript and Unity. They also learn Python, the language behind most AI. Along the way they learn variables, logic, loops, and debugging. These are the fundamentals behind all software.

Engineering and robotics

Students learn the fundamentals of engineering and robotics with Arduino. They wire circuits, write the code, and build robots. They also learn 3D design and printing.

Kids work together with friends, led by a mentor.

Where this leads

We believe the future is AI and robotics.

Our job is to get kids ready for it. The fundamentals they learn here are what they'll need to use AI tools well and build the robots of the future.
